Merry Merry

Merry Xmas ya'll!

Well almost. It isn't quite here yet.

So earlier in the week I went 'last minute' shopping with my dear friend Josie. I met her at her place and had some quality time there. She and her husband Brock are amazing people! They are truly wonderful to spend time with.

Josie and I went shopping and got most of what we needed. There is always more to be done.

We had such a great time going from store to store. We had dinner and good times. I always love shopping with someone who enjoys the sport as much as I do. (She still doesn't know what I got her! LOL)

So tonight, I sit here. On the couch with my girls, in the quiet that is the eve before Christmas, I reflect on the things of this past year. There have been some downs and luckily, mostly ups. This year started with tears, uncertainty and fear. One of my girls was paralyzed at the beginning of the year due to a spinal injury. We spent all of new years eve in the emergency vet clinic. As of today she is walking on her own and has only had one small flare up. It has ended (so far) amazingly.

Who could really ask for anything more? I have a wonderful family. My friends are amazing. My dogs keep me grounded. Mr. Goodbar (as he would like to be known) has been there for me through all of it. He keeps me sane and in the real world.

The new year will start with stories that I have written through the years and with updates on my life.

I hope that you all have a wonderful holiday season! Next year will start with the story of me almost getting arrested at a strip club.

Oh yes, I am THAT girl. ;)

Love to you all!

So yeah,

I started this. Now I need to do something about it.

My name is Jane.

Yeah, sure it is. We all know it isn't and that's just a little bit of Ok. Anonymity is a wonderful thing here in bloggy land.

Some tid bits of info about me:

I work. I have a few dogs. My non dog friends will laugh at that statement. I enjoy randomness in my life. Adventures make me happy. Wine makes me happy. I have a small group of amazing friends. I have stupid phobias and only a couple of my friends will give me a hard time about them. I love them for it. I am OCD, to an extent. Numbers, everything in threes and fives. Pretty sure I need therapy. I am a writer, or, at least I want to be (shocking, I know). I wish I was an artist and not a writer. I have a fantastic man friend, whom I adore. I love to take pictures, lots of them. I curse like a sailor, all. the. time. I have a few tattoos. Being girlie is a guilty pleasure. Buying things for other people is something I wish I could do every day. Surprising people is a joy, yet, I hate being surprised. I should have been a sailor. The ocean speaks my name.

So this is a journal of my anonymous life. Some of you will actually know me and most of you will not. My stories here are true and the names will be the only changes.

Enjoy me as I am.
