I'm bringing blogging back

Okay, I know I have not been writing regularly. I am gonna try to keep it up. Sometimes I am just enjoying my life and don't have anything to complain about. Nah, that can't be right, I always have something to complain about.
Like my lack of friends, it is my own fault. I don't want any. No, it's hard. I think it is harder finding true friends than it is finding relationships and this is coming from the girl who was single for FIFTEEN years before Brad the Wonder boyfriend....
The pets are great, they continue to make me laugh daily. I have seriously thought about getting another pet, but I feel like I am away from them too much already. They are independent like the mama, but they need love and attention too.
Miss Ella's toes are bothering her again, but she went to the vet today and is going to undergo a radical diet change. Dog food! Her granny and pa take great care of her and she is so loved, just needs a dog food diet. She is so loving and has such a good heart. I had a HORRIBLE weekend last weekend, someone treated me really badly and I cried so much my face swelled up (my lips and eyes), but Ella came over and administered some special dog love and I felt better, but did not look better! Her and I had some special "girl" time and it really helped.
Brad has spring break next week, I am jealous, but happy that he has a lot of Brad and Ella time. I am going to take a day off and hopefully we will all chill and have fun.
I see my shrink tomorrow. I am having a hard time with balance. Work is upsetting me, for stupid reasons. I feel in a way, that my life is not my own, I am just not used to sharing it, but would not have it any other way. Brad is my shining light, my best friend, the answer to my questions.
I just need balance.

Okay, Question:
Is there anything that you regret that you think would have changed your life, if you could do it again?? Leave anonymous comments

Now that you are a "grown up", how did you envision your life differently?
I will leave my answers in the comments.
and they are random!

Word of the week: Thermos... another word I like to say.
Shout out to God, for my gratitude and all my blessings. I just have to remember them.
Thanks to Ron, my funny friend at work who makes me laugh.

We're all on our way out - Act accordingly

That line is from the Departed. I liked it, it can be dark or it can mean, grab life by the horns. Life is good, Brad and I are totally loving on each other. Ella Beans is the best dog in the world and we have been seeing much more of her. My new job is very good. I love my 3 directors, they inspire me.
Sometimes I think that I am not happy unless I am complaining, but that is not really true. I think I am just getting used to my new life. If the people I know now, knew me when I was in Calgary they would not believe it. I was so unhealthy and desperately lonely and unhappy. I am no longer any of these things.
Brad is my best friend. We laugh so much, he helps me to lighten up and I think I help him to not accept less, he is so kind hearted, sometimes people want to take advantage of that, but he has not lost any of his kindness.
He helps chill me out and he listens. I don't want to go back to my surface friendships, I want real relationships. I am having a hard time meeting people in Edmonton, but to be honest, I have not really tried too hard either, I was so disappointed by the complete lack of support from my former friends when I got fired, I am still a little gun shy. I am making my way though.
I know that I am blessed and have a good slate. I am grateful.

Word of the Week: "Am I look like Peach?"... LOL

Shout out to the P2. (That's P squared for Peanut and Pirate, the loves of my life - and of course to Spartacus, Mama's best boy who is in my heart forever)
