It's been awhile since I've posted. Guess I've been busy lately. It's 7:00 am on Saturday morning. The Olympics have started. They had the opening ceremony last night on TV. I watched some of it. I got up around 3:00 this morning also and they had a repeat show going on. I guess in case you missed it the first time. 


I'm going to go over to Gary's house this morning. Gary, his daughter, and I are heading up to the mountains to go to my niece's birthday party at the lake. One of my sisters has a pontoon boat that we are going to go on and we'll also get a beach. I hope it's fun. I don't really dig being out in the hot sun all day long. I don't wear a bathing suit these days because I gained too much weight. 


I have to get some homework done by Sunday midnight. I have an idea what I am going to write about for my assignments. One of them is on bipolar disorder. We were to pick a topic we know a lot about and do a compare contrast essay on it. I think I have to write a rough draft on it or something. The other class has to do with bacterial infections and I'm doing a summary on Staph infections. It is a learning experience that is for sure. 


I have too many bills and not much money left over after them. It's frustrating. I need to find a good paying job. I've been trying, but there just isn't much out there to go on. The ones I interview for all have never gotten back to me. Haven't been to too many though. It's hard with this economy. I just wish I could find the perfect job for me. I think that's asking too much. 


My dad and I talked the other day. My step-mom lost her job this past month. She doesn't know why they let her go. They didn't give her a reason. They depended on her income. I hope that she can find a new job soon. Anyway, he hadn't been invited to my niece's birthday yet, so he was going to call my sister and see if he was invited. She probably just forgot to tell him about it.


I've been spending a lot of time with Gary at his house. His daughter is at his house until the 2nd of August so it makes it hard for him to come to my place.  He's such a sweet guy. Very much a gentleman so far. Takes my feelings into consideration and everything. Very nice change in what I was getting in my last relationship. 


Well, I hope today is a fun day. It will probably wear me out, but it will be spent with family and friends, so that is good. My family loves it when I come up and now that I have someone to do things with that will come with me, it's easier to go up there. I really didn't like going up there much alone. I used to spend all my time at home on the computer. This is a good change. It does make MDJ suffer. I can't be on there all the time though. I get on when I can and answer posts then.
