... it's been a while...

It's the small things that matter. It's those things that make the difference. It's those things that people remember.

I've moved a lot in the past 7 years. I have lost contact with a lot of friends, sometimes I find myself wondering what those people are up to. The other day I received a random message on facebook from one of those friends. We were close, she helped me through some tough times and I helped her through one tough time that was life altering. But that one tough time changed our relationship and changed who we were and we lost touch.

Needless to say that one tough time resulted in an amazing blessing and a cute baby. Her and her son are now living in New Brunswick which is where she grew up and where most of her family is. The message was simple, she thinks of me often, wants to get together when she gets back and that kind of stuff.

My excess extra time lately has allowed me to catch up with and touch base with some friends that I hadn't talked to in forever. So while I may be extremely bored sitting at home with a dog and cat and no cable - I have had some enjoyable moments.

I start work a week today - I can't wait to make some money so I can join a gym or something so I can network and meet people.

My goal for today is to work on my Dad book, make rice crispy squares, do laundry and send a few messages to friends I haven't talked to in a while.
