I haven't been here in a long time. I haven't had time. I graduated in May last year. Got my BA!
In the middle of my last year in school, about 15 months ago, I lost my beloved Beasley. I got messed up pretty bad behind that. REALLY bad. I'd just lost Bugsie two months before that to bone cancer. I still have Queenie and Princess left. Princess is really snuggly and loving now. Queenie is jealous, but she can get over it. Queenie wants to be my girl. Both of them have health issues. Not sure who will be last cat standing. I may get another cat after they go. I'm not sure. I might want a break for a little while so I can travel.
I lost my house about then, too. It's been a real struggle. I needed just 5 more months to finish, but I couldn't find a tenant. I couldn't pay rent here and mortgage there.
Then, tried to go to school in NY, but it all fell apart. Lost my house in the process. Ended up back in JC and have been bouncing around. Took a job at a grocery store, but my arthritis got too bad. It got to where I dreaded going to work so I finally gave it up. I was there almost 6 months.
So, I'm retired.
My car is in the shop, I'm deeply in debt and addressing it. I'm living on a shoestring. I'm trying my best to not make anything worse. I think I've finally accepted being retired and disabled.
I've been writing, though. I published a book last year about this time and I just published a book this month from the website. I let that go December 2014 I didn't have anything left to give it because of finishing school. And, after looking over the stats, I realized that it needed another complete overhaul and I just didn't have time. The marketplace had changed again. I might bring it back, as that's an option, but I said everything I wanted to say. I have another book in me on cats if I decide to write it.
My first book was about syndrome-x, which is the name they give a composite of symptoms when insulin resistance is involved. I'm writing a new one, bigger in scope, about this syndrome, as the first was about losing weight when you have it. This one I hope will be about 120 pages. Neither of the others is over 30 pages.
