November 17, 2012 ~ two weeks until my 36th birthday.
Normally about this time I'm talking to everyone about plans. This year, nada. I am totally meh. Is it because I'm on the Island away from the mainland and that's depressing..probably to be honest.
At the end of this month I will have been six months into my Adventure. I have now decided that I am going to stick with this apartment until the end of June 2013. The end of my year of Adventure. There is no reason to move out of here and then again come June once I have decided where I am going to be and what I am going to be doing.
I have been now at this Receptionist position for approximately five months. I work the 11p to 9a shift. I am now self-employed and do not receive any type of benefit package. I have some shifts where the telephone is crazy busy with calls and other nights where there are none and I don't want to sleep and I don't want to be caught off guard. It's a very weird position that I've placed myself in.
I have been lucky to have friends come over to visit with me. Not too many but there have been some. I have come to realize that I really don't know how to make friends. How the heck did I get lucky enough to have the ones I can count as friends into my life? Friends of friends, first time clickings...its a really weird situation.
My cousin and I have created a workable balance here in Nanaimo. I know he misses his wife and daughter terribly and I do try to keep the positive BUT having someone to speak with about the positives and bitch about the negatives who knows EXACTLY what we're talking about and dealing with I think has helped us both.
