A Long Time
Thursday, January 21, 2010 11:09 PMI noticed that I haven't written for way to long and that my last blog post was...well, pointless. It's interesting because I am constantly chatting with myself while home alone (or not) about my life and what's going on but then I come on to my blog and can't think of anything to say. So I've decided to write what happens in a normal day and the things that I see and do. My days start with waking up in a warm little apartment to our excited pip-squeak of a dog, Heinkel, just let out of his 'bed' (a locked kennel), begin the very fast and noisy run across the hard wood floor to our bed. Shawn gets up, lets him out and all of a sudden there is only one thing on his mind, warmth under the covers with me. Unfortunately the dog has gained weight over the holiday season, as we all have, and he can't quite make it up onto the big, tall bed. Shawn usually is right behind him ready to lift him up but by the time he gets there Heinkel has tried jumping about 10 times without success. Closer to 7:30 I wake again with a kiss from my man as he leaves for work, out into the cold, still, dark world. Do people really do anything at that time of the day? Anyway, I go right back to sleep as he pulls out of our parking spot in front of our old apartment building. When the snow is on the road I can hear the knobby tires on his 4x4 all the way down the parking lot. I miss him when he leaves, I love having him here. I'm definatly feeling much more independent than I felt when I was younger and dating though. I'm ready to be in love now, I wasn't before. Depending on when I work on that day I wake up 2-2 1/2 hours before I have to catch the bus (1 hour before my shift). Since I've been taking the bus I've had to get up much earlier and it's actually getting easier. I guess that's a good thing. I first walk down the hallway and turn on my computer which is on a desk at the end of the hall. Then I wander into the bright white kitchen, boil some water for tea and begin toasting some bread. Green tea and toast with cinnamon spread is a very tasty breaky. Sometimes it will be apple jelly too, depending on the mood I'm in. I sit on the Lazy-Boy couch in my living room and turn on the TV. Again, noticing that my Christmas tree is still standing the corner of my living room. "Oh well, at least the decorations are off it." I say. Again, depending on when I need to go to work I watch some television and then begin to get ready for work. I have to do my hair, find formal clothing to wear, make sure that it's clean and ironed and get lunch together. My lunches consist of lettuce with Pesto Parmesan dressing, a Dole fruit cut and a bottle of water. Mmmmm perfectly healthy. My work shifts are really random and it does get really tiring, I either start at 10 a.m., 11 a.m., 12 p.m., 1 p.m., 2 p.m., 3 p.m., 4 p.m. or 5 p.m.. Sheesh. My day's aren't very 'normal', everyday is different and it's hard to get used to. Derk's is getting really busy lately and it's going get even more busy as the year roles on. I love my job and I love being busy but it's going to interesting. Hmmmmmm....I guess that was pretty boring. But that's a little view into my life.
