I've been lurking but haven't had too much to say, as life has been extremely hectic in the last few weeks!

I've moved into and had renovated my new place. I'm living in a cute little house with a friend, her daughter, and of course, my pwincess Kayleigh. She's coped well with the move but is going through a WHINY phase...I hate whining but I love my girl and have adored our time together over the holidays.

I bought her a dog for Christmas. Yes, I'm a super proud puppy owner. Likey's his name...cause he liked Kayleigh so much. I'm like "That's cute. That'll stick." Better than her first choice of "Doggy." LMAO

I'm trying very hard to resist buying our purebred Schnauzer a coat and putting bows in his hair, because I'm not like that but REALLY, I want to. LOL.

I've been recently spending a great deal of my time cleaning up puppy poo off the brand new carpet.

Yay, brilliant.

What else? Hmm...

My teaching contract expired and I'm back on the sub list. Therefore I'll have more time to post and shoot the breeze.

My divorce minutes of settlement are being typed up and will be sent to the ex this week. We're getting along copasetically right now so I assume that will change in the next few weeks. LOL.

Oh! And I've had a SOCIAL LIFE for the first time in YEARS lately. Loving it. Had my family all over here for much of the holidays. I never felt comfortable having anyone over in my old place because Trevor made me feel like some pariah
so I'm enjoying this. I've had some house parties, I've gotten drunk, I've barfed, I've kissed random strangers. LOL good innocent fun.

Still sort of seeing the same guy from September. We've taken this relationship and twisted boundaries and done some things I never thought I'd do, but we really enjoy each other's company and can talk for hours...and just have tons of fun together. Does it have long term potential? Yes. Will it be long term? Probably not and that doesn't bother me. I can't believe I'm saying that because I never thought I'd even be ABLE to say that. Tells you how much of a shift in attitude and self-esteem has happened in the last year for me. I don't NEED a guy. I am, however, having fun spending time with this one.

Anyhow, ladies and gents, I'm sending my love to you all. Oh,and do you like my new pic?....I got my hair dyed and WOW do I think it makes me look thinner. Or, maybe I AM thinner. LOL.

Keep on keepin' on...
