A lot of things have been happening here recently. Some relationship issues came up very suddenly about a week and a half ago. I thought they were worked out, at least relatively well, and then everything blew up again this past weekend. Needless to say I am single again. I am expectedly upset about it. There are a lot of things about my life ( Read more... )

I can't fathom how my mom was able to do what she did 10 years ago, and I respect and admire her so much more now.

I recently had some issues with my digital camera. I got it about two years ago and shortly after I bought it there was a problem with the lens. Casio fixed it for free and it has worked really well until recently. It is having the same problem with the lens again.

I went back out looking with a friend last night. We had given up and driven our separate ways to go home. About a half a mile from the barn I saw glowing eyes in my headlights. I pulled into someone's yard, called Shelbie and she came running doing her silly Shelbie dance. So by 2am she was back at home in bed.

Shelbie went out to the barn with Lexi today and ran away. She loves the barn, but it was the first time she'd gone there without me. She has separation axiety, but none of us thought she would run away like that. She likes Lexi and it is really unlike her to run off by herself. She stays right by whoever she's with and has never needed a leash ( Read more... )
