Oh, why hello there..


It’s been a long time, but I have my list of excuses prepared.

Mainly, my laptop decided to go to another, better-for-him but not so better-for-me, place. And I started working 12 hour days (travel time is included with that number) 5 days a week. And a bunch of other things.

But here we are in 2013. Out with Otis the laptop and in with Elliot, the shiny new Windows 8 Acer tablet, gifted by my boyfriend who is way too good for me (but don’t tell him that).

You know that saying, ‘in like a lion, out like a lamb’ (it might be the other way around, but let’s just take my word for it here). I really hope that’s the game 2013 is playing with me.

The boy and I got back from our cruise at the beginning of January only to find out he had 3 weeks to find a new place, while going to work, while starting University courses after being out of high school for 10ish years. Poor guy. I tried to help as much as possible, but no sooner did we get the old house ready for rental inspection, did I end up in the hospital for 3 days. To make a long story short, I was on enough morphine not to remember that much of at least 2 days, and they think I have an ulcer (I’m not really 24, I’m a really good looking 80 year old). I have no idea how the boy doesn’t have an ulcer, he was the one under stress! The few weeks after that were a blur of roses, birthdays, family, and the dog-apocalypse (one dog has kidney stones, the other one got stepped on, and the other other one has Cushing’s disease).

I’m definitely ready to meet that ‘lamb’ (but if it was a yelling goat, I wouldn’t be all that disappointed).

That being said, I’m pretty excited for 2013, now that I can finally get the Kairee-show on the road.

Some of the things I’m looking forward to is getting my budget under control (yay full time employment!), getting back into running, and finding an economically feasible way to do yoga.

 

And bake. So much baking.
