Doing okay here. This time of here is always difficult for me. Sick of winter and it doesn't feel close to spring at all. Sick of shoveling snow and another storm is bearing down on us Monday. On a lighter note, the new job is going well. It was a more difficult adjustment than I expected in a weird unexpected way. That saying 'Be careful what you wish for.......' Well, it's true. But I am okay with it. It's been a really good life learning experience for me. I work with good people that unknowingly, have made it far easier than it could have been. Unfortunately, my previous boss was very upset at my leaving and I fear I've lost a good friend. Not a surprise but still, a sadness. My daughter and her husband have split and I am sure it's for good. Unfortunately she married a guy too much like her biological father. Generic Dude and I saw it from the beginning but it was a life lesson she had to learn on her own. It's hard for her now, but she's stronger than she knows. She will be okay. My son is too much like his mother and is being quite an asshole at the moment. I've not been able to see my grandsons since Thanksgiving and not much before that. It's misery for me but I am confident it will all work out. Somehow. I am still communicating with a delightful young lady on the east coast. Whether anything comes of it........we will see. I genuinely like her and feel if she lived closer, something wonderful would be happening. Distance being what it is, hard to say. I've been down this road before and it rarely works. Which leads to, a dear friend that has been one of the few women that made that effort. What she went through to come to me......just wow. And, she and Generic Dude got a long so well. Staying up late watching old monster movies while I slept. Unfortunately, life being what it can be, there just was no real way she could move here. We've kept in touch off and on. Right now more on. It's just so wonderful to have friends like she's been. We get each other, accept one another as we are, adore one another in spite of our crap. And........her ass would be too sore to sit on if she lived a few thousand miles closer and she knows it. Not to mention, I'd end up owning it. The photography biz has picked up and I am loving having more free time to devote to it. Generic Dude is doing well, aside from being sick a lot this winter. Nothing serious at all, just the cold and flu stuff off and on. Makes him grumpy as hell. Especially since I've avoided all of it. Fortunately, he still puts up with me fabulously. His business is growing which is wonderful to see.
