New Leaves

Years

I was just thinking tonight how time used to feel like it was going so slowly. But now it seems to fly.

It has been a year since I left Glasgow, It has been nearly 1.5 years since I've seen Kim and Susie, 2 years since I laid eyes on Liz, and 1 year and 1 month since I spent time with Pat.

I can't believe that.

So much has happened this past year. When it was happening, everything seemed exaggerated. Everything seemed slow. But now that it is over and I am looking back, I am dumbfounded.

It has already been a month since I left John.

Everything is crazy. But in a good way.

I did manage to slice my thumb at work while doing lettuce. Yes there is a first time for everything, no I didn't wear the cut glove, and yes, I did do exactly as I said I would, stop the bleeding, and get back to work. Yes, I should have gotten stitches. Yes it sucks to baby your left thumb. You never realize just how much you use your opposing digit until you can't. Wrap your perverted minds around that.

Tomorrow, I am playing hookie. My staffmaker and I are going to skip the meeting. He wants to take me somewheres, and he won't say where. He says food will be involved. I am really impressed that he has gone out of his way to know what I can and can't eat, and tries to find things to make, that I can have.

Lady had spent some time in the hospital this week, but everything is fine and ok, and she is back to her normal shenanigans about the house. Though, I do try to take care of things for her.

We made salve tonight. That, is very exciting, however, I seem to be of weaker stature than Lady, because I can not handle the fumes. I had to flee the kitchen for the most part.

I look forward to making non medicinal things.

I am living the life of a spoiled bitch. I love, I am loved, and I have started writing again.
