Trip- Thanks. I hope you have a very happy holiday and a safe New Year.

Burner- It was great to talk to you too. Have a very Merry Chirstmas and Happy New Year. I'm sure I will talk to you over the holiday

Billi -I hope you have a great Christmas.

As for me, I'm having a very quiet Christmas at home with my dogs and I will visit with my horse too. I'm looking forward to the quiet time. My new job is great, but oh my god am I busy. My job is an adventure now that I enjoy. My boss is truely an energizer bunny on caffine , but she is great to work for and with. At 5 pm on friday she came into the office I share with two other women (they work with the stallions) and handled us each a wine glass and said pack it up for the day. She then proceeded to fill the glasses with wine she had gotten as a gift. We then spent the next hour drinking and talking about work, the farm, and ourselves. It was a great time to relax and get to know each other.

I hope everyone has a wonderful and safe holiday.

DB- New job? Long story that I will explain later. The holidays were quiet. Family was here for Thanksgiving only. That house is good. The yard looks so bland without the flowers and no holiday lights. We also had some warm weather and I noticed some of my spring flowers started to peak through. However this past week the temps have been extremely cold with a fair number of snow showers. I can't wait until spring comes around so I can get back out in the yard. I alredy have plans for what I want to do with the vege garden

As for the new job....I actually no longer work on the farm. The energizer bunny on caffine was getting to me big time. I was supposed to be the mare manager, but in reality I was the mare manager plus assistant stallion manager plus entire farm manager plus administrative assistant plus billing The job was a lot more than I had signed on for. In addition, the boss would say I need you to do such and such, the next thing I knew she's saying I need you to do this, then this, etc and before I knew it I had a dozen things to do that all would need more than a day to complete, but she would expect them all done within hours. She didn't understand that it's a bit hard to get anything completed when she keeps piling stuff on and not allowing time to get each thing done. I was also getting concerned that they had way too many irons in the fire and not enough time or people to handle everything. So I left the farm and within days I was recruited by a very large equine insurance company. I started last week and so far it is a much better place to work. It's a very busy office and I will have to do a lot of work, but the stress level is easier to deal with. The hours and pay are great as are the benefits So on I go....

Sorry I haven't been around, but when I was working on the farm, the hours were long and I was exhausted both physically and mentally. I had less of a life then I did when I worked for the vet. Now the hours are great and I'm not wiped out when I get home. I should be able to get back into the gym now. I can't use the excuse that the gym is out of the way because I pass the gym going to and from work now

Nice to hear about the job change... no one needs that amount of stress to deal with...

Get de-compressed and then start hitting the gym again and you'll be up to speed in no time!

Thanks. I was the same way, I didn't have te energy after work to go to the gym and soon fell out of the gym habit. Hopefully I will be able to get bak into a nice routine.

Yeah, I know about the doors. Thankfully this one opened up fast. The hardest thing for me is now I have to dress in business clothes instead of casual jeans and tshirts.

Ohh I know...the stress was horrible and it was only going to get worse. I get migraines and the farm job was sure to send me into serious migraine attacks. The new job is a completely different story.

I went into hibernation for a while. The weather here has been beyond nuts. Within a few weeks we went from 24+ tornado in the area to 8 inches of snow to close to 70 this week

I'm loving my new job!!!! It seems this time I have found a job and career I can settle into for the long haul. Plus the benefits are the best I have ever I had.

I haven't made it back into the gym , however I got a nice workout shoveling snow one day last week. Now that it is thawing out, I've started working in my yard and gardens. My spring flowers are coming up and my seeds are started for my vege garden. I'm going with broccolli, basil, serrano peppers and three different types of tomatoes (roma, grape and a unique white one). I'm considering re-doing the border around one of my gardens and expanding it as well as expanding my vege garden. Other projects...installing tile on my back steps, replacing the cement walk out front with brick, installing pavers from the front walk to my driveway, re-doing the landscapin behind my house and adding stone to my driveway. If I manage to do all of that I won't need the gym

In other news...I've started to have a social life I've been frequenting a local bar/diner. It's kinda like the bar Cheers. It's laid back, friendly with a great bartender, great drinks and good food too. I've made friends there and found it's a great place to relax and unwind. Yes, I have also started to kinda see someone. Nothing serious right now, but who knows what is down the road. And Burner...it's not my ex However DB....the new guy is a firefighter.....

DB....I almost forgot one other thing...two weekends ago I almost called you to let you know I was going to be in NJ. However, I flew into Philly friday evening to surprise my mom at a party and flew back to KY saturday morning. I was in NJ for just over 16 hours, however if it wasn't for my family I would have been ready to leave after about an hour The drive from Philly to NJ was all it took for me to truely appreciate living in KY.
