Missed you too! Hey, guess what, I've moved to Sandy! A little further from work, but I'm loving it!

You're even closer to me now!

Yeah, no one believes me when i say that's the name of the town

Glad to see you around again, Holly. Give us an update on what you've been doing!!

ATM, I just finished going through all of my starred items in Google Reader and tagging them so I can access them better. There were over 550...this is what happens to my time on break...

My grandma just brought home a coney dog with onions and the smell is giving me a headache...yikes!

Okay...ATM I'm going to give you an update on what's been going on...

Wow, where do I begin?! lol ...Within this last year and half my boss that I've been working for since 1998 started her own company and I followed her and it has been a definite adventure and learning experience! I love our new office. We were allowed to paint it any colors we wanted and I have my own cute little office with windows and on clear day I can see St. Helens! I moved in with my brother and sister-in-law to help with finances, but after a year of living there I knew it was time to leave, so I just recently moved to Sandy, Oregon and its an amazing little city east of Portland.

In spring of 2008 we took a family (brother, his wife and 2 daughters and our mom) vacation to Disneyland. My brother is part of a Disney Podcast Network and they were getting together for their annual weekend "festival". I joined them on a couple meets and now I'm hooked! I've met some of the most wonderful people in my life. And even though we are all from different parts of the world..one guy lives in Canada and another in Australia, they have become my family. Most are from the United States, just from all over. We all talk everyday and this past year we got together again in May and had a blast. Just recently a group of us went to Disney World in Orlando for over a week and it was truly one of the best vacations I've ever been on. Me and two other girls are known as the Party Girls and strangers thought we were sisters, so we go with it now cause we really have become that. I'm going again this next May for the 4th annual get together and its going to be awesome!

This past October we did have a family scare in which my dad had to have emergency heart surgery. 6 bybass surgeries to be exact. Spent just over a week in the hospital so I spent quite a bit of time there. He's doing so much better now and is finally able to drive.

I still have my 2 kitties, Gilbert and Anne and they are hilarious! Very very vocal cats. Both 6 years old now and can't imagine life without them. Still single..sigh, but accepting it.

That's pretty much it in a very short short version. Takes care of family/home, work and fun activities! At one point I did decide to move to Southern California to start some kind of new life for me, but then the economy went *bleck* and I stayed put. I am thankful I did. I have a great job with a boss I adore and I'm near my family.

I know a lot more has happened, but these are some highlights. Have missed talking to you all. Been forever and I'm touched that the "At the Moment" post is still around

Wow, sounds great!

So, what is the Disney Podcast Network?

What kind of company did your boss start?

The Disney Podcast Network (DPN) is a group of people that love anything and everything Disney and discuss issues and get together once or twice a year at the parks to enjoy each other's company and geek out about Disney stuff. There's several podcasts within this network that are put together that are Disney related and they are awesome! [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] that's their website. I'm not back on here to only promote them, so please don't think that's what I'm doing. Its just a part of my life now and just wanting to share

We still somewhat do what we did at our old company...assisting insurance companies with workers compensation claims, but our main focus is assisting individuals that are applying for Social Security disability benefits. There is a real need for this everywhere and we are keeping very busy.

Mel and I weren't too far from each other, of course I hadn't been exposed to DMF at that time.

Yay!

ATM I'm browsing my new PW cookbook while wondering if I should put my new sheets on my bed and thinking I should load the new MP3 player. I can't wait until the morning when I can put on my new slippers, grind some great coffee in my new coffee grinder and maybe go shopping for some new clothes with my gift certificates!

My family was very good too me this year!

Had a great meal with the fam and even got to stop in to visit with some friends. Now it's early to bed so I can get up and be at work at 7:30am.

Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!

ATM I'm sitting in my apartments with one kitty laying on my leg and the other one is somewhere...prolly on the bed. The TV is on and I'm watching "Enchanted". In about an hour I'll get in my truck and drive to the theater to watch "Sherlock Holmes". Not a very exciting day, but relaxing.

Oh! There's my other cat. She is now yelling at me from behind my chair.

We are going to see that tomorrow!

I aM not even gonna lie. I got sloshed tonight.
