• Where on Earth does the time go !!!

   Hello to all who come across my space of blabbery LOLOL... I have not had a lot of time to be online lately and it is a good thing because I have been working and happy .. very happy .. I think I found myself a niche, a place where I can be a 'mom' and care for a beautiful home like I used to have... cleaning satisfies something I lost when I had to sell my wonderful home, if that makes any sense at all to anyone ..

  I cannot go into much detail for privacy reasons but I work with mentally challenged adults and I take care of their home and get them off to their jobs in the morning. It is a wonderfully rewarding job and I am very happy there . My biggest wish is I wish I made more money .. but have settled for a steady income that I can rely on .. which these days is a complete luxury !! I have weekends off and that is also something wonderful ..:) 

  Other than that I have been busy taking pictures and taking care of my own house .. although truth be told .. its too small and we have too much crap and I just get overwhelmed and I am happy in my life ..This house is bigger than the cottage .. but people are not willing to give things up so it is annoying .. and it is also temporary until the kids get on their feet .. but for now it is really painful for me - I am not happy here in this house .. it is not what I need. How terrible of me right ? .. Well actually nope .. I am finally getting to understand what I want out of life and I dream and hope for it .. knowing full well I have been so much more fortunate than most .. but still yearning for something nicer.. 

  I am still singing in my car .. the band took a break and I am not sure what is going to happen except we want to play badly .. and we have not seemed to get a break so I pray that I do get to sing some before I am too old .. in the band business the fact is no one wants an old fart aging woman to sing rock .. unless they are Stevie Nicks or Sheryl Crowe .. thems the facts LOL .. and it is okay .. I must add though that Pat Benatar is singing Better than ever .. so let's hear it for experience and the skill that comes with getting older, that the youngsters simply have not got ...

   I am taking pictures, making jewelry, crafting .. I am an artisan who needs to create .. even if it is only a few minutes a day .. and I try to fit it into every days routine .. which of course keeps me offline and you know .. that is not such a bad thing.

  I still feed the feral kitties at the cottage and there is peace and happiness out there except for the one bonehead neighbor who has to bust my shoes about a shed that has been there since about 1950 .. she called the town and the town guy came and said .. its pre-existing and is on the survey.. it is legal .. I pray she lays off now .. I need the persecution from her to end .. no matter what her reasons may be .. I have never ever done anything to her .. and it makes no sense .. and I refuse to allow people to persecute me any more .. this is a new model woman here .. 

  I just read a Stephen King book I ran across at a yard sale and it was a goody .. it is Rose Madder a very good, if slightly cringeworthy, at times. Believe it or not it empowers women .. and I liked it and was sorry it ended. I love reading and I am reading more lately.. there is nothing online really and nothing on the boob tube .. so I need to read ...

   Hopefully I will be on more than once a month lol .. my love to all of you out there ... xoxoxoxoxo c xoxoxoxoxoo
