Thanks DB. I can't explain how happy I am to be out of the inferno crazed apartments. Life is so much better and sweeter now. I love working outside in the yard which is why I haven't finished unpacking I do need to think about ways to improve the curb appear. The front of the house is a little too bland. Maybe a porch or some bushes would help, but I have time to work on that.

My parents and sister are planning to come down from NJ at the end of July beginning of August to not only see the new place first hand, but help me make some improvements. My sister is having custom closets made for me at the company she works for (Closet and Storage Concepts is the company she works for http://www.closetandstorageconcepts.com/ and she will install them with my dad's help. The best part is they will get to see Kentucky when it is truely a bluegrass state and there will be living horse racing in town too.

Sounds like you really enjoy it! Good for you! Take a look at your surrounding area and figure out what isn't around. Something to add curb apeal is anything that will catch someones eyes and make you stick out... makes you unique (sp?)

I was so scared to buy a house because it is such a huge committment, but I'm glad I did. So far I love being a home owner.

They probably will have some extra space to break you out of there. After living in NJ for way too many years, I can understand ones need to escape from there.

It is by far better than renting sweetie. It is a hugh step, but it is so worth it.

All the glory to God! We have a baby on the way.

It was worth it the first night that I slept in peace and didn't worry about being woke up by sirens that made it all worth it. In the grand scheme of things I cold not have made out better. My mortgage payment is less than my rent payment was, granted now I have utlities to pay, but I can get the tax breaks now on the mortgage where I didn't get any breaks for paying rent. It was well within my price range and it has had major upgrades done that will be good for many years. I couldn't beat the package for the price. Plus it's big time convenient to work, my horse, shopping (especially Lowe's ). What more could I ask for

I am so glad this week is over. It was a hellish week at work since the boss decided to leave town for a conference and our other vet had to cover all of the calls. It was nuts, but we made it through somehow. Atleast I am back to having the weekends off instead of working 6 days a week.

I still haven't made it back into the gym, but hope to this weekend. I have cleaned up my diet and increased the fluid intake which has helped to shed a few pounds of water. I have also started working more on the farm where my horse is so I am getting some physical exercise. Plus I work in my yard and garden almost every evening.

I didn't do the American Diabetes Walk this year I didn't get signed up in time and work was still crazy so couldn't get time off. I thought about doing the Relay For Life this weekend, but wasn't up for it. I did think about Deadbolt since I knew he was doing it in NJ. I also thought about him this weekend when I was at the local farmers market and went past the convention center where they are holding our annual state fire training classes.

Well I need to head off. Time to get ready to head to the farm to do some work and then home to make a good dinner with fresh produce from the farmers market I can't wait until my garden starts producing. I have tomato blooms so not too much longer.....

Aww well atleast someone is thinking of me. Yea we had out relay for life this past weekend...raise over 130k total for the american cancer society. Its a great thing. I ended up working half of it (w/ the ambulance) then went back to base punched out and ran back to help my team out. It was a good night...rained again of course!

Fre fighter training eh...man I wish this state would publish the results from my test so i could get a new job already! I'm telling ya I probably have a better chance of just moving out west and planting corn or something!

Devlin

Yeah I was thinking about you and kicking myself for not doing the relay too. I should have, but I just couldn't bring myself to do it. I'm still considered a survivor, but what I haven't admitted to many is that more than likely I will have to have another massive dose of radiation treatment this year. My screening tests are showing levels I should not have and the levels are increasing. In the mean time my doc is adjusting my thyroid meds to make sure the screening tests are not reacting to high levels of thyroid hormone. Needless to say I feel crappy some days as a result of the hormone levels changing, I'm moody due to the hormones and even moodier due trying to come to grips with another round of radiation.

Sorry to unload, but I need to sooner or later.

Sorry to hear about the state holding your test results, but forget about the planting corn...we are headed into a drought

Thanks DB. It hasn't been easy since my boss is back to his old habits and we are behind in billing at work. He is big time stressed, he knows it's his own fault this time around and instead of sucking it up, he takes his anger at himself out on those of us that are close. I am so sick and tired of his mood, his snapping at simple questions. I really like my job and usually it is a great place to work with good money, but I'm tired of what amounts to abuse and disrespect in my book. I actually made a call today about another job. If the money is comparable I may go for it. Maybe if my boss sees I am truely about to walk out he will wake up and change his ways. Why can't life settle down for more than a month

Yea you need a better enviornment...that boss is a real jerk off. Man I'd like to meet him one day and straighten his ass out real fast!

It comes is waves...life is weird like that. Ride the waves while ya can b/c soon enough there will be dead seas. Just keep on truckin hun you'll make it...we always do right? Live for today, be ready for tomorrow, and remember yesterday!

I think what Dev is trying to say, Bolt, is that if you plan to visit, don't forget your hose....

Hiya Dev!
Enjoyed the quick chat this am...do what's best for you. He isn't going to change. So, you must make your change. Go do what's best for you.

Success leaves clues. People who produce outstanding results do specific things to create those results

Sorry it was so brief. I couldn't really talk. There were too many ears in the office.

I know he isn't going to change. Do men ever change? However, the last time he got like this it was because he was pissed at himself for getting behind in billing and his mother was in town. We have the same situation now. Billing was so far behind that things were getting tight for payroll and he only had himself to blame. Plus his mother is in town and giving him a lot of shit for getting himself in the hole again and for not accepting help from those close to him. If we could just get mom to leave town and get him to actually work in the office versus finding any and every reason to not do paper work we would be set.

In general I like my job. The hours and flexablity are great, the money is really good. I just get tired of my boss's moods especially since they wear off on those of us around him. It's not helping my hormones are out of wack and I'm facing a possible round of radiation later this year.

What did help today was two clients complimented me and thanked me for a couple things I did yesterday that helped them out. When the clients see and appreciate what I do, it tells me I'm ding something right even if my boss doesn't see it or won't admt it.

I don't know
