24

Well... I'm almost at that magical age of 24. What a frightening proposition! LOL.

To recap the past little while, I've been working a lot and sorting through, of all things, job offers. People approaching me, while employed and asking me to come work for them for more money. I'm a little baffled and surprised... but of course am weighing my options carefully. Looks like all the hard work is finally paying off.

Craig and I are doing well too. Most of my weekends are spent up North of Barrie at his brother's place where he lives. Soaking up sun with 2 puppies (who are fully grown), and two cats, occassionally hitting the hot tub and as of this weekend the pool. I've also been building my DVD collection with Craig's help. I've learned the previously viewed section of blockbuster is second to none. :-) He's a great guy. A blast from the past, sure... but a great guy who earnestly has my best intersts at heart. Whoda thunka I'd meet a psych major who ISN'T a total mental case?!

My Mom is doing well, though my cousin (who's the tender age of 43) has moved in with her. The loss of a job, accumulating debts and a disability related to his back have left him with less than nothing. And he called on my Mom to help him. So my Mom, with her nest so recently abandoned ends up looking after her nephew. Poor Mom. She's going nuts... she was already having issues monitoring her money before this happened. Now she's also paying to feed a grown man and for his chiropractic care at my clinic (there were only so many strings I could pull). Painful. And here I am with job offers... plural. He can't get ONE. One question though: where's his Dad? My father's brother? Shouldn't HE be helping out here, rather than my widowed mother bearing the brunt of it?

Anyway, that's about it on this end of the funny farm. 1 day to my first interview while employed - ever, WHILE employed. 4 days til Jon Stewart at Casino Rama.

7 days til I turn 24...Life is grand. :-D
