Well, after some persuasion from fellow bloggers red molly, nowhere nick and tennessee jed I think it's about damn time I really start a blog. It's been a year since my first post, so I'm just going to consider this as a fresh start.
A lot of things have happened in the past year. I am of course a year older and I hope a year wiser, but I'm not so sure about that sometimes.
The most exciting thing that has happened is I bought my first house. It's a cute little bungalow built around 1927. It had been renovated a few years before I bought it so there are lots of new things, but it's the original parts I like best. I love the hardwood floors, the front porch (even though it's too freakin' hot to sit out on most of the year here), the original doors and windows. I really like the fireplace that doesn't work (but as I just said it's too freakin' hot here most of the year to use it anyways). I no longer live with my parents, or my brother, but I currently live with 2 cat's that aren't mine and will soon return home to their rightful owners.
A year ago I had just started my job at the local utility company. I still work there but have moved up to a Junior Engineer position. More on that later.
So other than the things that come along with owning a house and working to pay mortgage I try to find time for the more important things in life like family, friends, great music, interesting movies, knitting, a little drinking and even reading. I’m sure that my blog will consist of themes mostly related to those topics.
