I gave up on trying to post on the 12th of October, so I'll just shoot for posting during the month instead. Today is my birthday (and no, I'm not telling how old I am). However, to give you an idea, my favorite birthday present was the painter's promise to finish up the house today. (the original 6-day estimate turned into 3 weeks). Very sad indeed.

I have become a slave to my job. We have been trying to force some time away from there to enjoy life. My new interests are training my two dogs for agility. We just started and my Aussie is already showing a lot of promise. It's amazing how fast she catches on to things, usually after only being shown something once.

I have a new digital camera and hope to be adding some photos soon.

My novels, don't ask. They're on the back burner indefinitely.

So, not much change since a year ago. I'm only updating because it's just a 'thing to do'. And yes, my life is more exciting than my yearly entries (though not by much).

Until next year...
