Holiday's are a'coming....

I am sitting here at work (yeah I know I am supposed to be working, but had to take a break and put a thought down), and listening to the receptionist talk to clients. A client left and said "Happy Holidays!" She said thanks.

Then it reminded me of last year.... she would gripe and complain (after the client left and if no other clients were here) if they said Happy Holidays instead of Merry Christmas.

Great now I get to listen to it again this year. I will expand more on this later.. gotta get back to work...

Using the Pensieve

This blog is more just to get thoughts out in a pensieve type of way.

As I was getting ready for bed last night, I made a joke to the other half that went along the lines of "are you sure you are not bi?" she replies 'I am bi." We have been together for over 5 years and this is the first time that she has said that to me. Then the conversation went on...
She: I told you, I am sure I told you.
Me: Don't think so.
She: Well I know I was talking to someone about this.

All in all, it is not a bad thing nor was it a bad conversation. Just a realization of things.


Anyway, the point is... I know that there are certain male actors or types on men that interest her. There are certain actors or types of men that interest me too... not so much as to turn me on (like she was last night).
For me it is mostly the voice....

OK, usage of pensieve is done for the moment. I am at work and need to get back to it...

Dedication to My Mom

I wrote this "Dedication to My Mom" a few years ago.


Mom,
I still feel you around the house,
At times, I hear you laughing,

Every time I see a mouse in the house,
I remember the time you threw your books at one. (and killed one!)

I miss watching movies with you,
As you would drive us all nuts by rewinding,
And rewinding your favorite parts. (by the way Mom, Kenny is now doing this!!)

You are a hero to me, the bravery you showed
While fighting a losing battle, I will never forget!!

~~~~~~~~~~~
On November 11, 2001 my mom passed away after a long hard fight with cancer. I miss her dearly.

Mom
I Love You,
I Miss You

My productive day has come to a halt

Usually, when I am sitting here doing taxes I come to a point that I need to talk to the boss about something. Not this morning though. All I had to do was finish up a few partnership returns. Now that I have done that, I can start back in again on a return I have been working on for over a week for a farm/ranch. Problem is I can not remember where I left off..... I did not leave a note like a usually do!! So upset with myself and now I have to look over the papers to see if I can refresh my memory.


On a separate note; still sending lots of positive vibes toward the place I interviewed with on Tuesday. I WANT THAT JOB!!! I could so grow experience-wise with that job! Plus to be able to have medical insurance on myself and my son.... MUCH NEEDED!!! So, lots of positive vibes to the two ladies that interviewed me!!!

Oh, a separate note.... had a hot shower this morning!!! The hot water heater has been out for about a week. I did not want to put another one in until we could see if we could find the leak.. no luck on finding leak... until the old water heater was moved yesterday..... seems when they put the linoleum down they put it down and then cut around the water heater to make a snug fit... so when the water heater (which come to find out was installed in 1996!!!) decided to stop working, it leaked right down that cutup area... *sigh* there are some flooring guys coming this afternoon to look and see how much it will cost to repair....

So you see that I REALLY NEED THAT JOB!! It starts out at $6 more per hour than I am making now!!!

LOTS OF POSITIVE VIBES, THOUGHTS, AND PRAYERS!!!!

Tornado

This is Tornado. I am not sure what she was doing in the picture, probably meowing to get my attention, and looking at the other cat Crystal up on the desk.  By the way, she got her name because when she was a kitten, she would come tearing down the hallway, curve into the living room and into the bottom shelf of a coffee side table.  The bottom shelf is where my dad kept his magazines; so several times a week we would come home to magazines all over the living room. It was not until I witnessed her do it one day that we figured out what she was doing. Like a tornado she blows in, wrecks the place and goes away....

This girl is a character. She loves to spend time out in the garage, does not matter time or temperate. She wants to be out there.

My only concern with her currently is that she is getting hair clumps, I am not sure if she is too fat to clean her fur properly or what, but we have been having to brush her more often and try to cut out some of the clumps.

Well, my Wednesday is drawing to a close. I need to work on homework as I was too busy with scouting stuff and popcorn ordering, but I also need to go to bed at a decent time. So in 5 minutes when it is the boys bed time it will be mine as well.

Blessed Be

P.I.T.A.

This is P.I.T.A. she is about 4-5 months old now. She is a hoot to have around.  She is definitely my other half's dog. When Momma walks into the room the tail on PITA goes crazy and she usually runs up to her Momma.

Oh, she loves to go outside!! And as such I was wondering the other day about what she would do when it snowed. Well this morning I find out. The first time I let a few of the dogs out I could not stick around, but the second time (only like 20 minutes later) she took off running from the back room and did a few laps around the yard. The snows was not even 1/4 inch, but she seemed to be loving it.

Blessed Be

How to vent so that others can understand me?

Well, I am not asking this for a pity party or anything. But the people close to me don't understand accounting and taxes, so when I need to vent and rant, they don't understand the language that I am speaking. So needless to say when I am done ranting and venting I do not feel relieved, rather I feel like I am complianing about something that they can not help with. I don't need or want their help, that is just the feeling that I get.
