Catching up and some meme links
Hey Guys,
Sorry it has been so long. You must be thinking- wait, he’s out of work, sitting at home, why isn’t he blogging twice a day? Well I’ve been keeping busy.
In the cottage, I ran the gas lines (for the stove and boiler), air checked all the water lines (thank God, no leaks) so I was able to insulate the bathroom and finish putting armaflex on all the water lines. I set the base for the stall shower, and I also finished all the stub outs in the boiler room. So basically the bathroom and boiler room are ready to be sheet rocked and taped. And I installed the top kitchen cabinets, they look good. I plan on getting the bottom cabinets and the counter top in by tomorrow night. Much as dread it, I guess this weekend I’ll be sheet rocking the bathroom. Rocking isn’t that bad, I just project about the damn taping afterwards… But I need to get moving and finish it as I need the income.
The job market sucks still, been horrible for the last two years. Ever since the dot coms all crashed, there is not much call for Solaris System Administrators anymore. Getting to the point where I wonder if I have to change careers again. Problem is I can’t walk into a new situation and earn enough to pay all my bills. But that’s my shit, has been my dilemna for the past few years trying to maintain the homestead here by myself. I’m not complaining, just tellin’ it like it is.
On the personal side, life is good. Happy, joyous, and free. That was the promise and that’s what has come true. G and I are fine, very much loving each other, very much in awe of how wonderful our relationship is and how full our hearts can be. Yes, without sounding all sappy, I must say, for me, that I feel as if God brought us together so I could learn the true meaning and experience of loving and being loved, of being accepting, patient, understanding, tolerant, giving, receiving, and so much more. And fantasizing about the future, building our dream environment/home/etc. I guess this may be old hat to some of you, but it is all new and exciting to me.
The kids are good, Danny is coming up for the weekend, I hope Sarah and Maggie will visit on Sunday, I miss them so much. And it’s already Thursday and Sam has made the school bus every day so far this week! Yeah, that’s a good thing…
OK, I need to get some stuff done, but it’s been awhile so I’ll throw a few links your way-
