the good ol days...

when charles was just a young pup and we didn't have a care in the world. that was almost five years ago. time flies, and brings with it a lot of changes. charles and i are living in a new location, with a new routine, which is proving to work out well.

i think my poor chubby dog is actually losing a few lb's. our new roommate takes him on walks, and a special sunday "morning constitutional". my commute since the move has been dramatically shortened which has drastically lowered my anxiety and road rage. my work schedule is still painful, but i'm starting to finally make do with it, and am re-learning times like long ago when i managed a schedule and a social life. i've neglected it for far too long. i've even talked a friend into joining my gym! yay for motivation. i've been reading lots of good books and trying to keep a tidy life. i've even had the chance to visit with some of my old friends that i have been missing and hope that this is the time for us to catch up on things that have been missed in the past few years. those two girls have proven to know me better then anyone else, even after all the years we have been separated.

i am looking forward to 2010, to doing things the right way, to being more conscientious of what's happening around me, to taking up new hobbies/interests/crafts and most importantly getting out of the house, and back into the comforts of adventures and good times with good people.
