Ramblings

Hey'all, I know it's been a while since I've posted, but what can I say? It's been busy and hectic and I've been exhausted! I think I'm starting to get used to all these changes because I've not been dreaming of naps all afternoon.

I'm still enjoying my job and all the wonderful people out here... but I will confess, I was "homesick" the other day, which is odd because I'm not sure right now where "home" is for me. I saw a cool magnet once (I should've bought it) that said, "Home is where your dog is." A part of me agrees with that statement! I miss my puppies and want to be with them. I need to find us a home! Another part of me was missing Colorado and my peeps. Then the other part of me was just completely confused because I know that Wisconsin IS my home and I love being closer to family, Gina and Jason, and of course, Little Miss Maddie. I am taking steps to find a home and get my finances figured out, but it's slow going.

I'm also still trying to figure out what to add to my 30 Things list. It is still incomplete! What do I add? What else am I dying to do? I can't add any more books, that's for sure. I've lived alone... I've moved far away, I've gotten a pet... hmmm? What else can I do?
