It's been a really long time since I've posted here. I did go on a short drive a few days after my last post. It was a super short back road drive on the way to mom's house. Let me see if I can find them.
It feels so long ago. I'm trying to find my grounding right now. I have been through craziness this past year. Frustrations with Broken Window had me wanting to quit A LOT. Luckily I think the light at the end of the tunnel is starting to twinkle just a bit. I have agreed to start doing some shifts at Winchester Brew Works where Eric works so that helps pick up extra shifts here and there. The rumor is that they want a tap room manager- so we'll see if that actually pans out in my favor. I make pretty good money for only having to work 3-4 days a week.
What has happened since July last year? Well, Eric and I celebrated our 22nd wedding anniversary. We went to the fair in late July right before Ashton started his junior year in high school. He got the honor roll for the first time ever- and he did it all on his own. No intervention from us at all. We had a small very simple Christmas. We had a quiet new years as well.
Momma Cat died on January 4th. She just stopped eating. Lita died two weeks later. We had to put her down because she got attacked by dogs outside. It was terrible. I'll write about it another time maybe.
I've been hovering on the sidelines with WBW rumors since mid January. I'm still at Broken Window and have accepted the ridiculousness of the place. The good news is that when they found out that I was going to work some shifts at brew works Zach suddenly wanted to know if I was happy there and said that he was having struggles with Katie not doing the job correctly.
In late January Eric found out he is being sent to Denver Colorado for the probrewers conference. I apparently am going with him. I'm scared to death of flying. But I did let it go and say that I would do it if the opportunity arose. Well, I didn't think it would- but I guess the universe had other plans. We leave on April 8th at 7am. Just a couple weeks. I've noticed my anxiety comes and goes with it.
It may be why I've been sleeping so much and being so anxious at work lately. When it was far away it was easy to forget about but with each passing day it gets closer and I get more scared.
I went to the Dr last week and had a great visit. My blood works was all good and my thyroid was only slightly elevated. I went to the dentist yesterday and that was easy. The only other BIG thing that I have to do is the block party day for Broken Window on the 30th. Then with no choice I'm getting on a plane. Eric says that I'm making a way bigger deal than it actually is- but my brain is working overtime with it.
I got my first legit fussing at by an old woman at Broken Window on Sunday. She was probably drunk but she was in the wrong-- it sucked to get yelled at by someone especially since I didn't do anything wrong- but whatever. She made a fool of herself.
Today is my 4th day in a row being off and I needed it.
I am going to work 3 days in a row this weekend. Tomorrow night, Sat at WBW and morning at Broken Window. $$$$$$ :)
I want to post here more often to keep my pictures. I like doing things the old fashioned way- but it is getting harder and harder.
I think that's it for now. I need to do some dishes and then I think I'll do some yoga and shower.
Until Next Time.
