Heading Into Fall

Heading into fall, back to modeling for the art department. Still trying to find a job with more hours,. Haven't had much luck as of late. Still it is good to have the jobs that I do have. I will persist! Still in a bit of a fog after writing that grant, I took a risk and made it deeply personal. Oh ya that is right, I have no filter what so ever. That is the story of my life, I say too much or too little, never an inbetween. I have never achieved any sort of balance and that is my flaw! My thoughts are pretty scattered this morning as I am once again in personal upheaval. I have really been letting things that bother out of the bag as it were and I am not to sure how comfortable I am about that. Keeping my everything compartmentalized has served me well over the years...not so good now. Oh well this is my strange life and I will continue to live it. I need to stop feeling ashamed of being me and that is where the road takes a new turn! I will see how it goes.

It Was A Beautiful Day

It was such a beautiful day! More than just the weather of summer, two people unknown to each other, found out they were cancer free today. That made my day! Each day is such a gift and I for one have taken many of my days of health for granted. I am gonna try and not be soo pessimistic about the future of my life. Things will inevitably get better, at least I hope so anyway...Well not much else to add.

Cheers,

Life Is Back In Balance Again

Currently sitting in for our fearless leader of the guild. Not too much going on except that I have a job interview at 1pm for a part time weekend position for a company that I used to work for. Hoping that I get it, as I really could use the money! Turning in a couple more applications today as well.

On the flipside of this, I have developed another monster toothache. Life definately finds a way to balance itself out. I will endure like all the other times I have had monster toothaches. Hell I even  had one the day I got married to. It is kind of weird for someone my age to want dentures, but my mouth is soo acidic that teeth just seem to wear away and breakdown so easy. I easily have had $10,000 worth of dental work done since I first got fillings in my baby teeth....a luxery by todays standards to the restorative work on my adult teeth. People have told me over the years that you want to keep your own teeth as long as you can. I call bullshit. Not many have gone through the agony and pain like I have. I had a tooth get soo bad once that it abcessed and the dentist pulled it out. My boss at the time had only had a filling and wouldn't let me have the rest of the day off from work, so I went back to work woozy and brought the damn thing with me. She gave me a look of horror and aplologized.  My longest toothache lasted two years. I often dream of a day when I nolonger have mouth pain.

I should have taken my favorite dentists advice as a child and married a dentist!
