OK, here's the deal. I haven't wrote a blog post in quite awhile. I can't believe time is going by so fast! What happened when I was younger and it felt like forever before the good stuff happened? Each day brings it's own stuff, I think.
Onto me, cuz you know, that's what's important. LOL! JK! :) Anyway, I am working second shift again. There's numerous reasons for that. I don't particularly care for sleeping during the day. I hate wasting the day away sleeping. Also, I needed a bit more. Third shift is not that exciting and I actually like taking care of my residents. It's a challenge to get them all to bed and make sure they're cared for correctly. Honestly, I love my job. :) I don't want to do it forever, but right now, it does make me happy. Second shift makes it hard to have a life though. Fortunately, my mom is pretty good at working around my schedule and Shawn and I are trying hard to make time for each other whenever we can. We've already come up with the idea of me coming home on lunch break on days he has to work, so we can see each other for a little while. Because, by the time I get home, he's already starting his shift. You enjoy the days you can. It pays the bills for now.
Onto my next topic, Shawn turned 30 today! The big 3-0. The world is not ending, my life isn't over, but it's so weird to be old enough to have a boyfriend who's 30! I never thought I'd see the day. I was dating younger guys for awhile. Not intentionally, they just happened to be younger than me. I'm going to be 27 in September. It's scary getting older. Funny thing is, neither Shawn or I act like our age. He's still a kid at heart. And, I'm just slightly more mature than he is. LOL! It's good though, because as Shawn points out, "you don't grow old, until you forget what it's like to be young." Very true. We'll be big kids in our 80s. :)
Third thing, our silly cat has decided she likes the roof. The other day it took me forever to get her silly butt off there. She goes in through the storage room. Brat cat. We rescued her from being outdoors almost a year ago and of course, she's never forgotten what it's like. I really wish we had a fenced in yard we could let her play around in. She will sit by the window and meow pitifully cuz she sees a bird. It's quite depressing to hear. I love our little cat. She's the cutest little creature I've ever met. This morning she wakes me up at 5:30 by sniffing my face. I wake up to see cat eyes looking at me. Sometimes, I think it's just because she wants to eat me. LMAO! Just joking. Anyway, she snuggles on the couch. She doesn't like to be held much, but she'll let you put her. Yes, I said "let you."
Fourth thing, I've decided to read more. I have so many books to read. I always say I don't have time, but that's not true. I'm just always playing on the computer instead. What the hell?! So, I'm going to finish reading my Stepen King book, cuz I do love me some Stephen King. And, yes, much to Shawn's chagrin I'm going to read my romance novels too. :D And, if you've ever read Lamb by Christopher Moore that is an excellent book. I love it so much. It's like what happened during the time we don't see in the Bible of Jesus' life. It's a fiction novel and what the author thought, but it is hilarious!! I've read that book so much.
Last thing, kinda stupid but I am thrilled. Shawn said I could do the bathroom any way I wanted, so I chose butterflies! I bought a butterfly shower curtain today. I have a butterfly toothbrush holder, and towel. I need a butterfly bath towel rack. I love butterflies. If anyone knows where I can find a butterfly bath towel holder, let me know. :)
I know, this is ALL ABOUT ME, lol, but I just wanted to write down my thoughts. I feel so much better than I did a few weeks ago. I just get into these funks sometimes. I always try to pull myself out of them though. It helps that Shawn is good at making me smile and laugh. We're still going strong. Talk to you later. :)
I have almost finished reading Lamb. I LOVE it. It's made me laugh at what might have happened. I can totally see some of the stuff he describes happening. I have read the first part where Biff meets Jesus for the first time to a few friends and they have laughed over it. I'm getting my 2 besties together to have a reading party and that's the book I'm reading to them. Neither of them are readers and I want them to hear what this book says. I love it that much. Thank you for giving it to me.
ReplyDeleteNo problem! I'm glad you like it. It's one of my favorite books! :)
