Goings-Ons...Is That a Word?

Being sick sucks. I now treat my immune system as the precious jewel that it is. Now that I’m back amongst the living, I figured I should probably catch up on all of the goings-ons in my little, happy life.

Let’s see, I left off getting ready to dogsit. I put in my weeks worth of sitting and it was quite a challenge…mostly because it was in North Liberty and I’m not used to driving back and forth in the mornings. But it was worth it. The pups (Lucy and Oscar) were sweet and very well behaved. Buster the Cat and I kept our distance from each other and it worked well. I’m most definitely not a cat person, but I was down with giving him food and scratching behind his ears on occasion. Dog sitting also gives me a great opportunity to catch up on my laundry and reading. It’s a good thing.

My buddy Melissa and I are gearing up to road trip down to Baton Rouge next week to visit a sweet, sassy lady and deliver her painting. I cannot wait!!!! I’ve never truly road tripped before and I want to do all of the stupid stuff like see the world’s largest tire or beard of bees or something crazy-ass like that. And who better to travel with than my possible long-lost-sister? This will be a wonderful time.

I’m working on a new painting, which is refreshing. I’ll hopefully have it done within the next couple of weeks. I’m sure Mr. Manary is pretty excited to have a landscape to hang on his wall. I also need to get started on Christmas presents. Some of you will be getting beautimous paintings from me…get ready!

Hmm. On the love-o-meter, we are sitting at nil, which I’m totally comfortable with. That person from my past disappeared back under his rock or rotted out log or wherever he crawls back to when he loses interest in me, so I’m quite content. There have been dudes…but no one who stands out…yet.

So thus concludes my short update on the goings-ons. Nothing too much to get excited about, right?

Cheers.
