The stress can sometimes get to me, and the anxiety of general daily living, I've had a couple of horrible dreams about my job, which I truly love. But there are good things, I have a wonderful husband, who puts up with my nuttyness, two great dogs, Mac and Baron, and a turtle named Bobby, who the 10 year old brought home last year on St Patricks day, and has grown from the little baby turtle to Gamerra, I never knew that turtles were so smart. The picture of my cat, Marshmellow is from a few years back - 3, I think, she passed last October after the Fires here in San DIego County, she had been ailing, she was 19 1/2, and the stress didn't help. My office is a fairy land, fairies, a gnome, some live plants, two Japanese bells, for the angels in the world, art work by the lovely gracious Stephanie, and a carasol. Not bad for a law office, I must say :) When I look at life in general, it's good, we have a roof over our head, food on the table, and we both work. But the blassings are truly my husband, Steve, we've been married 18 years in about 2 weeks, the 15th, and my goofy dogs Mac and Baron. It is also the kids we live with. Their mom is not so mommyish, I think she didn't get it when she was a child, she adopted 3 children because it looked good, I kid not, and when we moved into the house, the first time I went to hug them good-night they had no idea what I was doing. Now, I get grated whne I drive up home, and a hug, after I've put my bags down, they just can't give enough hugs. Even Chris, who pouts and looks like it doesn't count for him, when I leave will come racing down the stairs for a kiss goodbye. I thank my mom for being so affectionate and loving. Ok, that's blogging for the day, I've never done this, and I write stream of consciouness, as you can tell. When I return home, I will add picture of the kids.
