As I go through my blog I realized I haven’t been on here in *AHEM” awhile and some of my readers have kindly reminded me that part of blogging means you need to “post something once and awhile”–touché I say to you, touché- right you are!
Yes, I have been gone for quite some time. Unfortuantely, I have not gone on any amazing vacations nor have I learned an amazing new skill. I literally have been working, moving house and on occasion taking a nap.
To start, I have a new boss, actually two new bosses added to the myriad of bosses I have now. The one in charge of it all has declared me a lead for my team. I asked what this actually entailed and I got the answer: doing more work. I’ll be leading by example which means doing more–how much more you ask how about 5-10x the amount of work that I was doing. Welcome to eating, sleeping, and living at work. FML.
Next, I moved house to a place I would liken to Suburbia- where everything looks the same and people are always smiling. It does freak me out a bit…the children are everywhere. Do I like the house?It’s OK. If I were to use a scale to rate the awesomeness of my house, I would give it a 5 out of 10. I have zero heating on the first and third floor and wear my parka to cook, and I drag my wet laundry outside to the garage to dry– BUT now I’m not driving an hour to work everyday and my dog has a backyard. Then again, the brand new, expensive, awesome couch of mine doesn’t actually fit in my house and I have zero storage–guess who’s going to IKEA tomorrow 😉
Lastly, I mention the nap because I would be lying if I didn’t say the number one reason I don’t post very often is exhaustion. I’ve got this heart condition that makes me ridiculously tired, and when I get that way I need to take pills and my body literally stops working–the limbs feel to heavy to move, the brain to fuzzy to think and eyes just too heavy to keep open. With a schedule like mine I pretty much use every bit of energy I have to make it through the week (to get that paycheck!), sleep for a few days and do it again on Monday. And before you say anything, yes I realize this is actually not the smartest way of “living.” For now, until I get my life thing figured out this is what I’ll be doing.
A true apology = Jesus and unicorns
