paper work fun

Last week I signed my full name about 200 times on all the mortgage paper work.
They told me there will be more at the closing, awesome. I need to get a name stamp made or something.

Gotta get the rental house all cleaned up and ready to be emptied. I'm ready to be out of there now, it was a good experience but I would not do it over again.

Home owner

Yep, the bid was accepted and I should be in the house in 30 to 45 days.
The start of a new adventure in home ownership as it were.

Now I just need to get everything in order and ready for the move.
I'm extremely happy to have a fenced in backyard for the pups and a nice big garage for the Tahoe!

bids

Putting a bid in for a house today. it's so strange all of the things you consider when buying a house. location, does it suite me needs, will it suite me needs in 5 yrs/10yrs. are the bedrooms big enough, is the yard big enough. it's a little bit maddening. I never really thought I would be buying a house alone though either.

I hate second guessing my self.

2 months

I have 2 months to find a new place to lay my head. Hopefully I can find a house to buy in that amount of time. Plus I have to get p90x going, I'll be mountain biking as much as possible. Training the dogs. Going to the lake.

My summer appears to be pretty full, well the next 2 months anyway.

HERE COMES THE THUNDER!!!!

be ready.

Also, mountain biking... I bought a 2010 Specialized Hardrock and I have to say that it's been more fun than I thought it would be. I guess the investment has already paid off a bit. The bike is black and silver/grey....it matches Duke lol

dust

sweeping up the pieces of my crushed spirit. good times indeed.

I was running

Running a 5k in 5 days, then it's half marathon time toward the end of March.

Must train harder and faster.... need some new shoes too lol

new year

Well I have a lot that I want to get crossed off the life list this year. 2009 was definately a year that opened my eyes to a lot of new things...some good, some horrible.

and I still miss my Loki monster.

house/home/roof over my head

looking at houses alone really sucks. Oh well, that just means it's all about what I want. I still say the buying process should be streamlined.

who the f knows

at certain points in my life I have to ask my self, why not me, why am I not good enough.

basicly I have more reasons to now hate my self and life.

awesomeness huh.

seriously

why does life have to be so difficult all the time. Something easy would be nice every once in a while. Of course then I think well nothing good is ever easy....right, anyone wanna back that statement up? and with that I'll just say, whatever. good night world.

This isn't about Loki, I'm not ready to write anything about him yet. Only that I miss my buddy everyday.

time

so maybe it's time. then, now, tomorrow, next year. No matter how bad you want someone, if the time isn't right then it will not work. No matter how hard you make everything around you seem like it's the right time. Maybe it's a path, and along the path you hit bumps that make your heart forget time. But time doesn't forget you, and time knows the path you are on. The path and time are joined showing us a sparkle of what we will one day reach. For some the path to love is short and sweet, it happens early in their lives and they know it for the rest of their life.... for those special few time has released them. For the heart and love are the only two possible forces in the universe that can over come the power of time. Of course that leaves the rest of us that haven't or thought we had at one point or another...but we remain on the path. Apparently time isn't through with us yet, or playing a joke on us.... it does seem like that sometimes. That's the thing with time, that tiny sparkle that we get to see once in a while...In some cases it's a prelude to what awaits you but at a different time on the path. We feel that our paths stretch to Saturn's rings...Hope for tomorrow keeps us traveling down the path and toward our star. As the emptiness in the hearts of those on the path becomes overwhelming, they need only look back at the path they have traveled. Looking back reminds us of the bumps that make time stop, even if for just a short time. Those bumps are enough to keep us moving toward the next one, the last one, the forever one.

I know I have messed up more than I have successed in this journey called life, but looking back on my path....I smile because I do see what is possible in love.

no clue

so if I get pissed at someone for trying to bring a drink from a bar into a car, and then yell at them because I think they are talking shit........wait for it........Then I get yelled for getting pissed.

life is awesome.

well umm yeah

ever feel like screaming would make a difference? I'm gonna try it later today and see if it makes me feel better.

I think I'm beginning to be a bit to negative about things that I shouldn't as they are things out of my control.

Sleep now little girl

Today my bestfriend had to put his Boxer Roxy to sleep after finding that she had cancer. I feel so bad for him. I cannot imagine that pain. Makes me want to run home and grab Loki and Lilly and never let go.

But on the upside Roxy is in heaven now and she gets to meet my baby girl Dutchess.

dug in

so I'm dug in as good as I can get, and I'm waiting for the storm that I know is over the horizon.

A fine line walked and failed

5/27/09

In this situation I cannot make any party completely happy with my actions. Not exactly sure what to do at this point though. More changes for the future that is for sure. It's funny how someone giving what they think is good advice, but instead it only adds to the weight you already feel. Epic fail! So many missteps along the way, only to fail everyone again.

The worst is that I have failed myself and I put myself in this.

I love writing about things that are important but leaving out all clues as to what it is...

the quest for a mountain bike.. a good one that is.

I've been researching mountain bikes online for a few hours now and just can't justify spending the same amount I would on a used car for a new mountain bike.
Used is a good option, guess I'll check out the LBS and see what they have in as far as used bikes I guess.

update

completely forgot about this site again. is there an iphone app for blogger? I need to look into that.

Marathon

26 miles of fun that's what a marathon is,,, pain, fun, same thing right.

Gotta find out more info and get that all put together soon. I was planning on the boston marathon in 09 but with qualifying being so close I don't really see that being possible. But there are other major marathons next year. I want to look into Chicago but I just don't think the Peachtree is a good fit as it will be too hot, way to hot to run that long. I'll try to update with my training progress. Stinks that is so cold out, so it will be off to the treadmill tonight.

Also need to start the xmas shopping stuff, yeah haven't started at all yet. The wrapping part always takes me longer than the shopping part anyway. Also need to start figuring out my moving plan as I'd to be able to start moving at this point next month. Should be pretty quick, and then I get to do some touch up on this place. that part might take a little while....

bravery and confidence

Having the bravery and confidence to put your self out there on the ledge, I have that. But at some point you begin to wonder if it will ever be rewarded. You can only go out there so many times before you discover that it's not really worth the return that never comes. Oh well you have to keep at it people say, but they speak from comfortable places and can't or don't see the place you stand. I'm just so tired, not physically... but my soul. My spirit is weak, the fight within me to go on waynes like a dying flame. It reaches for the sky, but the air runs out. Trapped in a cave is how I feel. I used to run to the cave as it was where I wanted to be more than anywhere else... now though, the cave is bearn and cold. A shell of a palace, a crumbling tower. Overwhelmed by that which I cannot control, yet I let it take hold of me. Sure with people you show the good face, you show that you are strong and that you can overcome anything in your path. Though once alone, the doubt of the day remains and blacks out the light. You wish to lash out against it, to fight back but even the mightiest of us begin to fall in time. This is not where I should be my mind screams out, yet only echos return. Time, my friends is all we have.. we must choose to use it, though without looking it can wash past us. Leaving us with only questions and no time to get the answers. The internal battle to keep going or lay down and die, a battle that goes on without end.
