Good morning, it is cold and windy, we have very little snow thankfully. Last day of my vacation from school, I have nothing planned today other than work on my sister's fingerless glove, I have one done. I meet with them next week and want to have them done. won't be a problem.
I put the screens up in the front windows as when I sat there there was a breeze. Up until a couple weeks ago and even Christmas it was warm enough to open them. I'm afraid those mild temperatures are over. until spring.
Finished that book, Anything For You, it was just a really unnerving book all the way through, I knew it would work out as they always do. I need to find a new book to listen to, right now I am re-listening to To Win Her Heart by Karen Witemeyer, a very good listen.
I need to write thank you notes today and letters to my soldiers. Also need to send my volunteer hours to the Auxiliary and DAR. I will get this all done so that I can start my week fresh, Monday's are always good for a fresh start.
New year, first Monday, clean slate!

Day two of a long year
Good morning, 37 degrees and breezy, overcast and looking a tad dreary, it snowed briefly last night nothing measurable.
Well already I surpassed last year and that with this post I will have three posts!!
I am listening to a book the recent addition to the Blue Heron series by Kristan Higgins, I was so looking forward to this book, but so far I am on chapter 16 and I have been on edge for most of the book, I know it will work out in the end but I fail to see how. This isn't the greatest book to start my year with, I am feeling so low down. Stop you say, yes, I should but I need to finish it, and know that they will be ok in the end. But, seriously why so much trials and tribulations? I will re listen to it as I do most of my books, I re-hear books at night so I don't miss anything in the middle when I fall asleep.
I have to clean for my cousin today, don't really want to, but I have already put her off, and I am running out of vacation. Next saturday I am lunching with my niece and sister, possibly lunching with a friend on sunday and then cleaning for another cousin after. I am busy but contemplating taking on another cleaning job. I don't need a stinking day off.
Real work starts back Monday, chicken nugget day! Three,six, nine ten. that is my way of counting the little nuggets. I miss the kids, I get exasperated with them at times but for the most part it is good.
Payday is Friday so that is a bonus, I just typed this without looking and without much backing up to correct!!
I need to go finish breakfast and take my pills, everyday since the 12 of November, I did take it late once but still took it, it is making a difference.

A Brand New Year Part Two
Here I am again on the first day of the new year 2016, I did not write on my 2015 blog at all besides day one, hoping to change that this year. I have an extra day to fill as it will be my 14th birthday in February.
I did not buy my house, still want to though, I did not learn to type with out looking, well I can (but I go very slow and miss some letters along the way,) In parenthesis was typed with out looking.
I lost my Saki March 30th, she had been slowly going down hill since Crane died on October 29th, 2014, I think she was depressed and old, she missed being 14 by 2 months. I miss her and Crane so desperately, I miss having a dog, but I am not getting another any time soon, I still have my cats, Lilly, Callie age 10 Bob, Mitchie and Doofy age 4+ they will be 5 in May and Mattie Cat who will be 2 this spring. I have two upside down catfish and a glow fish, George, Griffin and Goldie.
I was going back looking at old posts, on the first day of a new year 2013 and I am re-posting it, unfortunately it still fits
So goodbye 2015 hello 2016 lets hope that next January 1, 2017 I will not re-post this, I am going to change my ways and be the 'strp-off-the-fringe' person I want to be, Baby Steps..
Until next time my lovelies…..

GOODBYE 2012 AND HELLO 2013....
MY WISH IS THAT I DO NOT EXPECT ANYTHING FROM YOU, IT IS TOO HEARTBREAKING WHEN I GET TO THE END OF THE YEAR AND GET SLAPPED IN THE FACE THAT NOTHING I HAD WANTED OR EXPECTED CAME TO FRUITION ....
I WILL SURVIVE BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN... IN LIKE ..FOREVER.
ONE MORE YEAR..ANOTHER HEARTACHE AND STILL LONELY.
WELL THERE IS ALWAYS HOPE AND BECAUSE OF THAT I WILL GO ON....
FROM THE FRINGE...STILL

A brand new year...again
Good morning 2015, a brand new year, crisp,(here at 24*), semi sunny. I awoke, feeling semi hopeful.
I can't muster more than that as my life is in a stagnate hole. I am going to vow that next year on the first day of the brand new year to write something different. If that is my only resolution I hope I keep it. I also want to be able to type without looking, I do ok-ish but still make mistakes.
My blood sugar this morning was 176, not great but I had been eating peppermint candies all night, I couldn't sleep and listened to my book most of the night, I saw 4:11 probably later but I didn't turn over to see the clock.
I hope to buy the home I am in, from my brother and sister-in-law. I want to own my home. I hope to find an inner peace that I am so desperately needing. I hope to go to church/find a church that inspires me. I hope to be a better person.
So 2015, new year, new day. Impress me.

A long summer
Talk about slacker, it is now August twenty sixth. I didn't find work and thought I could make it on just my housecleaning. It would have work but for those things that come up like vet bills, Crane hurt his leg, and they all needed flea stuff at eighty six dollars. I did manage to get back on top of things until last week when I bounce a check that wasn't supposed to come in until this week, then it snowballed. I have to call the credit union today and try to fix this. I went to the doctor and now am getting a battery of tests, bone density, pelvic ultrasounds and colonoscopy, and mammography and blood tests. I found I have coarse calcification on my left ovary, they can't see my right, so an MRI is coming up, I have shrunk and so the bone density, which I got the notification that it was in and the diagnosis area was blank, maybe I am boneless!! LOL. I am trying to keep some humor about all of this but I have to say I am concerned, not because I may or may not have cancer but that I was gypped on a life, I am running out of time to find my person, is he out there? Please hurry. If I do have cancer then what? Not so happy in my life, is this my out? If there isn't anyone for me, any possible happiness of getting that person who gets me? That isn't family? That chooses me, for me. Isn't a positive outlook needed to fight what I may have to fight? Not sure I have it. I think I need some pharmaceutical help that will come especially if I get the results we all dread.
I start work again next week, glad for money again, I am taking the 26 payments and will get a check in June for the summer. Then if I go to work it will be a bonus.
Well I will try to stay calm and keep my chin up.
My niece started college and is already homesick, she is going home next weekend. I think college isn't the fun she thought it was going to be.
I got my survey back from my soldier and found out what he likes and I will be able to make his boxes more personal.
Off to write to my soldier and my niece.
I will write soon, from the fringe,

Slacker on the Fringe
May fourth, it has been 80 days since my last blog....where did the time go? Several times I meant to come and extoll my words of wisdom but it passed. Why today? I was writing to my friend on facebook an instant message and I realized I missed writing my thought. So here I am, I can't promise it won't be 80 days until the next but I can hope it won't be.
Still love my job at the school, I still am hating on the weather, it is May fourth and its cold and rainy. Two day we had temperatures over 70*.
The lawn is just starting to need mowing but it is too wet. I am disgruntled that my neighbors will mow my two swaths on their side of the driveway and blow the grass in the driveway. I just don't want to start this again. I think I may plant flowers there so I can avoid this all summer. They are so stupid, I have told them nicely and not so nicely and nothing works, I think they were all dropped on their heads.
Since February 12th, My Dad would have had his birthday he would have been 81, my Mom would have celebrated her 78th. My sister celebrated her 44th and I celebrated my 54th. My grandfather would have been 109. Many cousins celebrated theirs. Crane was 11 on April 28th. Now we are up to May. My niece will be 18 this month, Saki will be 13.
I am still in a flux with my life, this post will not hear any of it, maybe tomorrow. I just wanted to touch base, let the 'world' know I am not dead.
