I haven't really done anything here lately other than post pictures and ... post pictures LOL!

Here's a bit of what's been going on:

- My friend's husband was diagnosed with Hodgkin's Lymphoma. He had his first chemo Tuesday. Please think good thoughts for him?

- My lovely and talented friend, Heather, has done yet another new design for me on my photoblog over on Blogger. It should be up tonight, it's green and filled with shiba goodness...and it's FANTASTIC!

- I'm feeling VERY disconnected from my friends, very much alone in this world, which in and of itself is mostly a normal feeling for me...not sure how to change it, or if there is anything to change.

- Yesterday I sent the president of my company an email telling him I wanted to sit down with him and discuss resigning my main position (I were two hats here); he has not responded or mentioned it to me in any way.

- Last night I came home to find out Dad had tried to fully close one of the windows on the outside porch...and had gotten stuck...for at least an hour. On the porch. In the cold. Boy, was I mad! I don't want to yell at him for trying to do things that were easy for him to do in the past, but I can't seem to help myself. I want to be more kind and caring, but...what's wrong with me?

- This weekend I have some friends coming up and I'm really looking forward to it. I just hope that things go smoothly.

- I figured out a great Halloween costume ... totally looking forward to it, I just wish it would GET HERE already!

- We're having a Halloween Party at work on Tuesday; I think I'll just wear a pair of devil horns ;-)

yeah, where ya been!? you're far off away in janey-land. I haven't seen you in a dog's age!

Oh....hugs on the job and Dad sitch. That's tough. Really tough.

And we're here when you're feeling more social.

And I bet I know what you're going as for Halloween.

Mrs. Snape.

Well, for what it's worth, we out here in blogland love you. ;)

It's very hard sometimes when you see someone you love take an action that's harmful to them. You want to grab them and shake them, and sometimes you just can't help yourself...I might know how you feel there.

Oh, please! Pictures of the costume? :)

You told me I had to entertain you, wait on you hand and foot, and basically cater to your every whim, why are you worried it won't go smoothly? Repeat after me, what am I? I'm a giver.

JUST Devil horns?

I am eagerly anticipating the Shiba goodness on the photoblog.

Ok, you're all up! Looks great if I do say so meself!

I don't think there's anything wrong with being isolated from friends unless you're unhappy with it...

I can't say I can relate to getting frustrated w/ your Dad, but I know my mom deals with it a lot. :(

I am sorry about your friend's husband you know he is in my prayers and I am sorry that your dad got stuck on the porch!

Grendel's Tuesday.......

1) :(
2) Looks wonderful!
3) I'm looking forward to our "date"
4) I hope he gets off his butt and writes back
5) Poor dad. :(
6) Yay for friends!
7) Can't wait for the photos.
8) It might be a bit chilly for that costume.

Love the new photoblog, great colors and layout!
Paragraph 3, I feel the same way lately. It's really irritating the crap outta me.

That's tough about your Dad. you're doing the best you can Janet, but you're human. don't blame yourself for this one :(

can't wait to see the halloween costume!

you mean you do other things than take pictures? wow.

Being patient with one's parents is hard, but we will be rewarded. :)

I am looking forward to your halloween costume. I'll post mine from years past on Monday

Your photoblog looks great! Can't wait to see what you came up with for Halloween, and I know it's hard to be patient and kind with parents sometimes. I have a hard time myself, and I bite my lip a lot. You're all in my prayers :)

Sending good thoughts and vibes and sunshine to your friend!!

I understand!

p.s. I'm gonna be a zombie housewife. lol
