News, yup there is finally news

Okay, today is a combination of sadness and some good stuff. Gram's funeral is this afternoon (and it is 12:20pm), so I will be soon heading out. My mom died two years ago and having to go to this funeral will be tough. I start a job tomorrow so that is kinda coolio and I am very excited about it after being off of work for so long. I am looking forward to being back at work and finally having an income again woohoo!! Will update again soon.

Just an update

Well, my update is not so great today - my friends Gram died today; I was with her and I held her hand while she took her last breath.  It was quite an experience and I don't know if she realized I was there, I am glad she wasn't alone; her immediate family could not be there and believe me they had rallied around for the past week, I just happen to be a morning person and went in to see her early. I wasn't there to hold my mom's hand when she died (two years ago also in February), and a dear friend was there with her; I will forever be grateful that she was there and my mom wasn't alone on her last night and she did have a friend with her when she took her last breath.

Yup Still Unemployed

Here it is February 4th already and I am still unemployed..... YIKES  I decided that I will find a job no matter what even if I have to be a cashier at Zellers.   Life is good other than the no job thing; no complaints.  I am making a promise to myself to make better food choices and to get more exercise so that I feel healthier.  I am also going to spend more time with friends (quality time). Gram (my friend's Gram) is sick and in the hospital, she doesn't look good and she isn't doing very well; I am not sure she will get out of the hospital to go home.   Life is so uncertain sometimes and I have learned to live it while I am here and it sure feels good to live. That is all I have to say, nothing really interesting just what I have... Cheers
