Already?

Wow, time really flies.

(Incidentally, LJ, what is this annoying new thing that I can't switch back to the old posting format? I hate this font you're making me type in, which isn't the font of my regular LJ. At least it's not comic sans, I guess. Small mercies.)

So in two days it'll be the 11th anniversary of my LJ. I'm posting now because, knowing me, I'll forget. I missed my tenth anniversary last year, can't remember why. I was probably working.

Anyway, my life has taken a turn for the exciting. pdaughter is moving in in five weeks, along with Bean. Needless to say, I am thrilled. We have all sorts of plans for the house (and for more kids), and Sergent is over the moon about having a little boy to play with again.

Things have been crazy-busy as a result. Between work and life, the only time I've been online is on Twitter, for the most part, though I do check back on LJ from time to time. It's been work and moving boxes and trying to paint and running around prepping things and then more work. Capricornucopia is tomorrow (it was delayed because I was sent to New Brunswick to do relief work in January), and I'm not entirely sure how time went by so quickly.

So how has everyone else been? What's exciting in your lives that I've missed?

Yay! Good to see you!

I know how it goes, you don't post for a while and then before you know it, it's been 6 mos.

Right? And six months ago I had no girlfriend and was still trying to work out what the hell I was doing, and my house was a disaster area. Now things have done a complete 180, and my biggest problem is that my parents are being passive-aggressive as all hell about this. It's a nice problem to have, to be honest. ;)

How have YOU been? I read your LJ, and sometimes it feels like you're the only person who updates regularly anymore, but sometimes it's nice to get confirmation in person, as it were.

I am hoplessly out of touch. Will that suffice?

[mousme.livejournal.com]

Not remotely! I feel like I haven't spoken to you properly in years. How are you, my lovely? What's going on in your life? :)

Been facebooking more of late. To be honest, things are crap. But I'm more interested in your interesting news. New, um... roomate? Sergent? Egads, I'm out of touch...

Are you and I FB friends? I'm never on that site, or almost never, it drives me crazy and I mostly hate it, but I try to check in with friends so we don't lose touch.

pdaughter is my girlfriend, and has been officially since October, though we've known each other for ten years now. Bean (not his real name) is her nearly three-year-old son.

Sergent is my husky/collie mix! I've had him for a year, but he's about to turn seven. That's his picture in my icon. He is a sweetheart. Such a good dog, I totally won the doggie lottery with him. :)


I am sorry things are crap for you. You still have my email, right? You can ping me anytime if you want to talk in a less public forum than here. *hugs*

Congrats on your girlfriend moving in. That's fantastic!

I had a baby!

I'm so glad things are going well for you! I'm not updating much on LJ, because pretty much nobody was reading it, so I know how it goes. I'm working, and telling stories, and have a bit too much on my plate currently. I'm learning how to say no, and let things go. I look forward to hearing more from you soon!

Hihi!! Congratulations about your impending new housemates! Things here are odd... I lost my job at Halloween, still looking, and health issues are flaring up again. My hunny N still has his job, unfulfilling as it is at the moment, so we're okay for money atm. I am doing a small knitting project that is going well, first on double pointed needles and first with cables, and so far so good. :)

Hugs and hugs!
