Shouting Out

Jeebus, has it really been that long since I wrote my last blog??? WTH. I had wanted to write once or twice a week, but life ya know.

Okies, bringing anyone and everyone up to speed. I did some soul searching, some rearranging within my life, picked up some new habits and got rid of some others, blah blah blah. It took awhile ok? :)

So what else? The US Supreme Court ruled that I can get married, it will never happen to me, but nice to know that in another universe it might. I also added to my pack back in March and adopted a new baby who is 6 months old now, weighs 18 lbs and rules the roost over her brothers. She is a goofy spitfire who has added some life to our previous grey undertones. So we now stand at a happy 4 pack! Four is pretty much all I can handle right now.

The biggest news however is that I have switched jobs and am working from home which my dogs absolutely love. Still within the same field, but a different aspect of it.

Upsides to working from home: the autonomy, flexibility, ability to multitask doing chores while still working, allowing me to eat more healthy, work in my jim jams if I want, save on gas and traffic aggravation and I get to interact more with my dogs.

Downsides: the only things so far are no coworkers and patient interaction. You are pretty much alone unless you can go out to lunch with someone who is free. I don't mind being alone. I have been for much of my life, but it is nice to have that one on one human interaction on a daily basis. Even a introvert like me needs to bust out the hidden extrovert every once and awhile.

I am still working on some items from the Quest. Some I dropped for a bit to concentrate on other things going on in my life, but I am picking back up. There is no timetable. One needs to branch out and do something, be constantly learning, thinking and doing or one's soul tends to stagnant. I think I am trying to beat that and make some univeral soul connection with whatever or whomever is out there. A piece of art can reverberate your soul just as much as a converstation with a stranger can. It's all about connections and missed connections.
