Catching Up

So 6 months later and it seemed I'd forgotten this blog was even here. I really do tend to go in spits and sputters and I bet not even one person still checks this. LOL. That wouldn't surprise me a bit!

Lots has gone on and yet it seems like nothing has. I still don't talk to the ex who broke my heart in March and a few friends have gone by the wayside, but since then I've made new ones, rekindled older friendships and worked through some good and bad times. I think he used me, but whatever, I'm so over it.

I'm particularly glad to have rekindled the few friendships that I have as of late. I realize how much I missed their company. I've spent a bunch of time catching up with one friend specifically. We've gone out to dinner a few times, caught a movie here and there and basically filled each other in on what's gone on with us the past few years. I also had a wonderful surprise when an old best friend from my grade 9 year in high school found me on Facebook and we have since been able to chill out after not seeing each other for 11 years because she had moved away.

Since my last post here, I have also changed jobs. The place I was working for had decided to close the call center part of their business which is where I worked. Everyone got laid off and I found myself in need of employment rather fast. They did give us a 6 week notice and in the nick of time I found employment with Fido, a company who is getting pretty big within Canada. It is a company who sells cellular phones and accessories, which of course, seems to be my forte. I'm doing well and have been with them for 2.5 months now. I am coming close to passing my 3 month probation and I am stoked! So great to do well in a job that you really like.

In other news, my Grandma(mom's side) has been really sick and is dying. She is a strong woman though, who keeps holding on and persevering despite all that she's been through. She has survived through 3 types of Cancer previously(Skin, Breast and Lymphoma) but now she is enduring through both Lung and Colon cancer. These cancers are advanced and spreading and the chemo is taking its toll on my poor grandma. She's suffering, I know she is, and I want so much to have her at peace. I don't mean I want her to die, but I wish she didn't have to hurt anymore. I hate seeing her in so much pain. Part of me wonders if she's holding on for us, her family, because we don't want her to go and not holding on for herself. I trust that things are going to happen and are happening as they are supposed to.

To end on a lighter note, my dog Kirby has had puppies again. This should hopefully be her last batch. She has had 4 and they are the cutest little things! My sister wants to keep one, if not two. With the two budgies we have since acquired, I am beginning to think she's trying to turn our house into a farm! If we keep two, we will have 7 dogs and 2 budgies. We might get a dog from our aunt and that would make 8 dogs. That's way too many if you ask me, but time will tell how things go.
