Well [livejournal.com profile] jordina came over yesterday for our traditional boxing day; twas a good day. And I saw her tripple E PC, as well as finding out that my Acer's wifi still works. It wasn't connecting to Dad's, and as he had no trouble with other puters, we were keen to see whether it would work with mine, so dunno; maybe it's a setting with Dad's wifi.
I also had the two dogs here last night which has been a lot of fun; I looove my dogs! Mum and Dad thought, since they would be out all day with no Ruby at home to at least provide Heartly with some dog company if nothing else, she may be better off here, so they dropped her off on their way out yesterday, and of course with j and her dog here, there were three! Rob and Joy were very playful together; Heartly was a bit unsure.
J gave me an audio book and some honneycombe from Haigh's and I gave her a lush voutcher, (didn't hide that one too well since I wrote about visitting Lush last week). I of course finished my favourite chocolate first, the lint balls; sad times. :( but I've got quite a bit of other good quality chocolate to go which is comforting.
These dogs of mine are very competative of my attention, but they both mannaged to sleep in my room fine. but this morning, I shut Joy in while I toiletted and fed Heartly, and then I let Joy out and got her organized. Now they're both quiet; think Heartly's laying on one of the beds in the lounge, and Joy is in here. I may give Joy a run in the park today if Heartly gets picked up early enough. I've heard of some people being able to walk their retired guide on leash while working their current one, but don't know how it's done since they always crave to be on the left side even on leash. J may come with me to the park.
Now to my subject line; including today, there's only five days of 2009 to go, and I'm wanting to make the most of them. There's been so much positive change in my life lately that I'm thinking I won't be as emotional as other years about the transition into the new year, but still, I just want to see this year off in style as it's been one of my better years (having got my boy back, permanently it seems; yeay); as well as getting my new bundle of Joy and finally kissing my old job and evil boss goodbye for good! :) I don't mean actually on new year's eve as I'll be with my boy, but I mean this week leading up to it. B will be working, and I just don't want to spend the final days doing nothing. Me thinks I should and could get in touch with some friends and hang out a bit. It's funny, I've never felt that way before, but I guess for the reasons mentioned above, I feel I want to honour this year not by being a TV couch potatoe in the final few days. Weird? I know.
And next year promises to continue seeing change in my life, starting off with my new job where I already know I'll be appreciated.
So, how to start ending my year in style? I know I do need to do housework today; vaccuming after the three dogs yesterday, washing me clothes and shopping as I haven't got a lot of stuff here except for turkey (which is good stuff), chips and biscuits. Then, if I have time I will give Joy the run in the park, or maybe I can do that tomorrow with J and Rob, and contact other old friends to possibly get together Tues, Wed and/or Thurs.
So this has been my contemplative entry for the weekend; God bless us all! :)

I forgot to say two things; one important, one not-so important but more random.
The important thing I left out is my new friend Caz, (well, I've known her for simply yonks but we've just started talking more now; she will also be working with me) gave me some shortbreads that she made; She's a great cook and does a lot of it! Since J saw her last Monday, she gave them to her to give to me yesterday. They are sooo niiiice! :) Just wrote her an email to thank her for them!
The random fact is that my next-door neighbours (the big house behind our units) must have got their grandkids a trampaline for christmas, as I heard them jumping on it yesterday while taking the pups out. This is the house with the yappy dogs though fortunately they've been pretty quiet of late, (touch wood). It's also the house with a big swimming pool, and they certainly do not hide that fact on the boiling days where all I want to do is jump the fence and dive into it; if only they knew me! Lol!
Dad has since picked Heartly up, so I will go shopping later.
And I just got an SMS on the mobile so off I go to check it like the curious sod i am. :)
Til Next time, RdFreak
