Well, I made it...

I am moved. Not unpacked completely, but moved. I had forgotten how much I hate packing and unpacking. Not to mention renting U-Hauls, loading U-Hauls, unloading U-Hauls...ughhhhh. Thank goodness I have a child (and son-in-law) that I could convince to help me lol! They were great and we got it all done. Some days this being single business sucks, but on the other hand I do what I want, when I want to....or just do nothing...because I want to. So I guess, six of one half a dozen of the other. Is it possible to find that perfect blend? Someone to help out and hang out, but leave me alone on the days I don't feel like peopling??? I sure as hell hope so.
On the writing front I am getting close to starting up again. I have the computer desk and laptop set up in their designated area (yes they have an "area" now). I have had the one story I started sent to an editor for editing...only 3 chapters so not too expensive...and got good feedback on it. It needs lots of work of course, but positive words are still positive words. I'm hoping once I get the two versions of the first story blended together and get a little farther down the road with it, I will be able to afford to have it edited as well. Hope springs eternal in this apartment :).
The old dog is finally adjusting and I now only have to drive a few blocks to work (literally 5 minutes) instead of an hour to work and back from my daughters house, where I was staying until I could find a place here. I also have to say I am tired of summer, or rather the 90 - 100 degree heat that we're having this year. I am SO ready for Fall. I would love to find somewhere that had perpetual Fall....60 -70 degree weather, perhaps some rain, cool breezes....yep...that's where I need to go.
This is going to be short as I have a load of other things to try to accomplish, but I'll be back more regularly from now on and hopefully with much more accomplished on my books. 
Love, light and peace to you all.

Broken tailights, bones and computers oh my!

Well it's been quite some time since I've posted and I apologize profusely for that. January flew by for me and then at the beginning of February I ended up in the ER with incredible abdominal pain. When the ER doctor hit the "spot" on my abdomen my head flew up off the bed and I almost head-butted him...there were a few choice swear words as well. After a whole day (yes, a whole day) in the ER getting IV fluids, an MRI and waiting for the doctors to make their way back to my little room after the flood of patients that came after I checked in, I found out I had diverticulitis... don't get this... ever . T his is an infection of the small pouches in your intestines, which if it gets bad makes it impossible to stand, or sit, or lay down without a lot of pain. Now I also know what an appendicitis feels like, as the doctor said this problem mimics a horribly inflamed appendix....yah me. Now I can cross that off my wish list. I was sent home at nearly 5pm with instru

Still here...sort of....

So I'm still hanging in there after the big move....ahhh....kind of. I finally found a place to live, but I can't get moved in until the 15th of this month. Sooooo...I have been staying with my daughter and her family for the past month and driving an hour to work every day. We are going back to get the rest of my stuff (my whole house lol) the weekend of the 15th and I will finally be back on my own and writing again.  I've thought about trying to write while I'm here, but I just can't concentrate enough to get it done. I leave at 7am everyday and don't get back until 6pm. Then it's dinner and 2 very active young children...my grandkids (who I love dearly, but make me very tired). So it will have to wait until I am back in my own place. I have everything figured out on how and where I'm putting everything now. I'm renting an apartment that is actually the bottom floor of an older house, so the floor plan is all chopped up...each room is separated
