Moving on .

I've been blogging for a few years now. Sometimes sporadically sometimes daily, but almost regularly. I have finally separated from XSU and starting to live a new life on my own. The original blog helped me get through the painful process of the end of the marriage, along with some bumpy roads dealing with a critically ill child in the midst of the end of marriage mess. Now this blog will see me through the new paths and adventures that life has to offer. Restructuring my life. My way. My experiences, ventings, musings on that whole big and not so big deal.

DogUrDay kind of Day today

Can you tell I am counting down the days until I go to my first ( and probably only) NASCAR race weekend. I am totally excited. The track, the noise, the aroma of fuel, the red necks, the 6 free beers ( per day) that go with my tickets - yep but it's Coors - may as well be drinking water! It's going to be a damn fine time. I am so pumped for this event.

And then there will be the shopping in our spare time. We'll be going through Syracuse - Target heaven, AND outlet malls supreme. I thought about finding the Coach store, but these purses are so ubiquitous that I am thinking Kate Spade instead. Does she have outlet stores yet? You don't see too many Kate Spade bags in my end of the world.

So the SI joint pain has started up again. I haven't started in on physio therapy yet, but that will probably start on Monday if I can't get the pain under control. I don't have the exercise plan any longer, so for that and some acupuncture treatments - would be worth it. It's been two summers since my last bout. And I am talking about my aches and pains. Roll eyes. Totally going middle aged nuts. But it's not pleasant. I saw the doctor and got the full strength naproxin- Aleve just wasn't cutting it!

I've been enjoying the relative tranquility since Rebel moved out. RebelJunior doesn't seem to be causing too much havoc. I've got her going on a plane to visit her grandparents and XSU will pick her up there and she'll come back with him.

I am heading to a friend's for dinner this evening. She wants me to bring one of my appetizers that I only usually make at Christmas time. LOL How could I say no? It's easy and I always have these ingredients in house.

In the meantime, we've got Blondie with her Caturday posts so I thought I'd make mine a DogurDay. I know I know... doesn't quite work.

It's a match!



They say that people look like their dogs. I’ve looked in the mirror very carefully. I've put pictures of my dog and me next to each other, and nope, I don’t see a resemblance. However, my dog and my dad? Now there is a match. I look at my dog as he looks at me and it’s eerie,
he’s channeling my dad.
Really.

Now, having said that, I have found a few things that my dog and I do have in common. It’s eerie too.

I need a hair cut. My bangs, or fringe as they call it across the pond, are falling into my eyes, causing me bad hair moments. And I can't see.

Dog does needs a haircut too. He can't see through the hair falling in his eyes.

I seem to have bad teeth, they’re either falling out or need to be removed.

Dog’s are too.

I love going for walks. Dog does too.

I check my messages regularly. Dog does too.

I really don’t like Rebel’s dog. Neither does my little dog.

I don’t have a lot to do with XSU any more. Haven’t seen or talked to more than once or twice since Rebel Junior left. Neither does the dog!
