Well I am still around, just not blogging much. I can't believe it but things are pretty much the same as always. I feel like I'm stuck in a black hole or something and nothing ever changes. I just keep spinning my wheels and get no where. I really have been feeling down lately. I need a holiday, just a short break away from my life to get some perspective but I know that won't happen. I haven't had a holiday in, well I don't even know how long, 10 years at least or probably even much more.
My dream holiday would be a cabin somewhere either on a beach or in the woods. I don't even care if it was warm or cold out as long as I don't have to talk to anyone or do anything but enjoy the change of scenery. I'd light a fire and snuggle up with a hot cup of tea and a good book. I'd take long walks and take in the beauty where I was.
Instead I'm stuck here dealing with things I don't want to deal with, so much I don't want to deal with. Some of it's normal stuff and other stuff not your average run of the mill junk. And just as I'm typing this I see a woman walking her dog outside at 11:40pm. The dog craps outside our house and she didn't clean it up. I wanted to run out there and punch her in the face. I should have grabbed a bag and run out there and picked up the dog poo and thrown it at her. Would have served her right to get dog poo all over her nice coat. With my luck I'd be arrested and thrown in jail for assault with dog poo. That's kind of how my life seems to be going.
Weather wise we had some early snow that stuck around for a week or so and now we are back to rain and above freezing with no snow. People think Canada is all snow and ice all winter but where I live it's just not like that. Because of how the weather has changed since I was a kid back in the dark ages we never know if we will have any snow on the ground for Christmas or not. There was never a question when I was a kid, there was always snow at Christmas. We went sledding with our friends on Christmas day while our parents enjoyed themselves at home cleaning and cooking. Now that I think about it that was my mom and my dad snoozed on the couch.
The son is still working and living here. He still doesn't drive. The daughter is working and living here. She can drive though. I wonder if they would notice if I just slipped out the back door and didn't return for a week or two. Most parents with kids their ages are whining about them moving out and how much they will miss their sweet babies. I'm dreaming of the day our too small house will finally be the right size for just us two old people.Typing this is making me even more sad than I already am so I'm going to end this post here.
I hope all my US friends had a wonderful Thanksgiving.
