Back on the saddle again

I had a mishap with Gordie and my bicycle the other day, fell and bruised my body pretty badly. Eric asked if I would get back on the saddle. Yes I did and will stay on this time!

Another summer apart from Eric makes me pensive about our times spent together and how much I take for granted. I busy myself with yard work, there is endless yard work here and weeds galore. I graduate from my Associates program in July and have no job prospects as of yet. I will begin my last course, (an online Hazmat class) tomorrow.

Gordie is an amazing friend. He has learned to stay by my side on our rail trail walks, selects the correct toy at my prompts, and is currently working on ending those annoyed "woofs" to outdoor stimuli.

The house is clean, dishes are done. No laundry or chores indoors. I read for pleasure now, a nice break from the semester of organic chemistry and environmental law.

I look forward to garden harvests this summer and good laughs with friends and family. I also look ahead to my August birthday when I get to fly out west to reunite with Eric.

That is all for now. Take care and enjoy the benefits of springtime!
