moderately happy, dare i say...

or perhaps ecstatic is a better word... today was another good day in a string of good days which seem to be occurring more regularly I'm working on a really cool project with a really amazing person, and it's going to be SPECTACULAR when we pull it off. it feels good to be accomplishing something, or working towards accomplishing it anyways, while sober. Tomorrow makes a year since my grandmothers death. I remember that as soon as i got home from work that night i got high and stayed high. I… Continue

Sad Sad Sad

I've so enjoyed and clung to the support and friendship I've received in the chat, but I can't take it anymore. There are certain person(s) that can't step back from the bitterness and hatefulness; they have no idea how to take responsibloity for their own actions/reactions and don't have a CLUE how to say "I'm sorry". Am I perfect? NOT fucking at all, but when I hurt someone I care about, I can say I'm sorry..... at least half-assed look at myself and my behavior and try to figure out what I mi… Continue

I just keep thinking something will happen to prevent her from moving here. our timing is always messed up when it comes to living in proximity of each other. But this time will be different. my mom also has a health issue that is concerning me a bit right now. She is a mess over it. I'm just going to be positive about it and hopef… Continue

New Toy For Lola

Today we adopted a Plotthound cross 8 mo. old from Homeward Bound Dog Rescue. We named her Lucy (they'd been calling her Stripes - what a dumb, boring name. Plus, she didn't know it anyways.). Pepper will be going home in a week and we just know Lola is going to be sad when she goes. So, we had to find her a new playmate. There are a couple pics of her in the photos section :o)
