Sorry to everyone who has sent me a message in the last month that I haven't gotten back to yet. I will do my best to reply. I haven't been online much lately.

I started training for my second half marathon which means I'm spending about 2 hours at the gym at a time 5 days a week running on the treadmill, lifting weights, or doing yoga. That's cut down on my lazy on the computer time and the days I'm not at the gym I'm trying to spend out with people to make some friends around here.

Things are falling apart around my house. My Mustang has refused to start since December. My dad swore up and down that it was the battery from sitting during winter but after charging the battery and the car still refusing to start he thinks it's the fuel pump. I'm going to have to have it towed somewhere to get repaired. I have a Malibu I've been driving during the winter and the power steering went out suddenly a few weeks ago because there was a hole in one of the hoses and it was rapidly losing fluid.

About a third of the insulation in my garage has been knocked down by the chipmunk that moved in there to escape winter and the roof leaking. I don't think I can fix the roof but I might be able to fix the insulation myself. When the weather warms up I'm going to get with my neighbor who's a roofer to see if he can repair it or if it needs to be replaced.

My dishwasher was leaking into my basement and my furnace was slowly dying. I got a bonus at work that I was going to remodel the kitchen with but I had to replace the furnace and dishwasher instead so I still hate my kitchen. I bought new ceiling tiles to replace the gawdawful industrial looking drop ceiling and the tiles don't fit.

I let a friend move into my house at the end of November and she told me that she'll be moving out by the beginning of May. I'm relieved because she's my friend but I don't think we should live together. I miss having my house to myself. I never thought I'd say that. After she moves out I'm going to try to do some paintings to hang around the house. I'm also considering repainting the walls to update the house a bit and make it more mine. A lot of the rooms were painted by the previous owners. I don't mind most of their paint choices but I feel like a change would be nice to make the house more mine since I think I'll be settling here for a lot longer than I expected.

I might be getting another promotion at work in a few months. There's a supervisor position that's been open for a few months and my boss has asked me if I want to apply for it a few times. I really thought about it and decided to go for it. We had a meeting about it and there is some training he wants me to do for my current position first and then we can talk more about the promotion in a few months. That's fair. I know I still have a lot to learn about my current position. If I end up getting this promotion I'll be in Michigan indefinitely.

Being here indefinitely is a strange thought. This town has never felt like home. When I moved here it was supposed to be temporary. Now that it's looking more permanent I'm realizing I need to make a bigger effort to get to know this place and the people here. I still feel alone here but I'm hoping that will get better.

Time to try to do a nice long run on the treadmill!

miao!!

Mat it can get overwhelming. I hope you can get it wrapped up May and you can enjoy your summer and start saving for your kitchen again. I've been trying to redo mine for 10 years now, and something always comes up and uses that money.

Best of luck on that job.
