It sure is quiet in here, but if anyone is still around, just wanted to wish you guys a happy, peaceful, safe and fun-filled Christmas/holiday season.
I'll be glad when Friday night comes because I have all of next week off work. First real holiday/break in two years, so I'm going to savour every second of it!
My 2006 has been full of heaps of changes, all of them hugely positive. Moved house in September and now share a house with Laurissa's sister. We get on fabulously too. The day after we moved in we went to the Shenton Park Dogs' Refuge Home to pick a guard dog (although we have a security and alarm system, we wanted a dog not just to feel safe but as company for us both too). Well, we came away with two of the most adorable little Jackhuahua (Jack Russell Chihuahua cross) puppy girls you could ever hope to see. Pookie and Pogo. Pookie was 10 months and Pogo seven months. They had been put into one of the pounds and a ranger had thought they had potential to be adopted and rehomed and took them to the Dogs' Home. We all went to look at them, including Alexander the Great (cos any dog we got would have to get along with children too), and it was instant love at first sight. So we came home with two little girls who are just beautiful. Pogo is my girl and Pookie is my housemate's girl. They've both had a rough start in life and Pogo is utterly terrified of all other dogs except for Pookie (they were kennelled together and the Dogs' Home would only sell them together as they had become inseparable) and screams in fear when near any other dog/s. Both of them need constant reassurance and affection too (gee, that's SO hard to give them - not!)
And then in October after two years as a court reporter I got a job in one of the Department for Planning and Infrastructure libraries in Perth. I just love, love, love the job (not to mention the fab pay at last!). People I work with are just beautiful people. We all get along and we all have fun at the same time as we work hard. Fab team leader too. Such a nice person. Couldn't ask for better.
And next year I'm going to learn to drive. Can't wait!
So for me life is just joyous and very, very happy and content. I hope everyone else is doing well and are healthy and happy. If you're half as happy as I am these days then you're mightily happy!
Happy holidays guys! (Assuming anyone drops by anymore!)
