aw crap I hate this question

I have a mission statement somewhere I wrote in college.. I sometimes write good things.. but I am best left undefined, and open to interpretation..

I like my role in life as it is now, I am Mom to 2 great kids ( and I am not exaggerating here they are F*CKING AWESOME), and I don’t feel the need to impress anyone. I have structured my life around things that make me happy, or happier at least..I have a few things to work on, but the things that most irritated me about myself, I have cut out (for the most part).. I quit smoking in December 07. I cut back drinking, and all but stopped partying..I have gained a quite a bit of weight, but I have been pretty unhealthy the last couple years, and have been on plenty of medicine that has helped with the weight gain..

In January I found a good job, with a great atmosphere. I worked as a temp for a while and still AM a temp, but was told, that they are putting through the paperwork to hire me on permanent.. THANK GOD.. I am not worried about the background checks.. my record is good.. I hope.. lol.. Anyone who knows me, knows last year was a difficult one for me Job Health and children wise.. I am bound and determined to have a better one this year..Dammit

I hate clowns.

I despise backyard breeders.. adopt from a shelter.

.

On to my pets.. I have 2 fish,

2 cats, and 2 dogs.. the fish… will not die.. they eat & poop and live forever.. I had 20 fish in that tank.. 2 are left now, and I am SURE will be here till the end of time…

My cats.. mmm..Good LORD I love my kitties.. Dodger is my old man, I have had him since I was 15 & 1/2-16 yrs old that makes him like 8 BILLION years old in cat years.. seriously though he has been going through Renal failure for over 2 years.. I will be DEVASTATED when he goes, but I will be with him, knowing DAMN that cat has had an AWESOME life. He has been through Coyote attacks, ran into a car, and has been with me through all my boyfriends, husband, and Children.. HE rules the roost.. dogs, kids and adults included in that one…

SAGE is an adoptee from the Castaic Animal Shelter he was a little sickly thing when I got her.. she’s been healthy and spoiled with us for 5 years now..

i have a wee bit of a collection of Succulents, cacti, and euphorbias, I have ended up liking plants quite a bit, and now want a bigger greenhouse

so in a nutshell.. that is what i am about.. Family, work, animals, plants, and continuous change..

that is the part I like best.. Change.. blessed be..
