Today

This weekend Bruce Willis and Katy Perry performed on Saturday Night Live.
Highlights are "Boys Dance Party" and Katy Perry's "Walking on Air" performance.

I feel like and did go through a wormhole, best term I can think of, as life has changed dramatically in the last while.

Highlights:
Lorne and Sophie, the levels we are at now
Realizing I am wanted and loved and I want and love
Laptop!  A computer, a tool, to help me on my journey

Just keep going, perform well, be well, live well, and eventually die well.
I need to work on clearing my skin, getting my body (through dance, yoga, nutrition, etc.) in the best shape.
Get through the remaining roadblocks of ill-health, sorrow, loss, confusion, and be the best Janet I can be.

Progress

This has been a rough year.  And there have been some rough ones.  Finally, I am making progress.

In February (2013) the house at Bluejay was sold, my tv stopped working, my heater stopped working, and I had been ill with flu.  It all worked out.  I still live here in the apartment, I still have my job at Sears, and I am in contact with family again.

I recently got the little heater I needed for this winter 2013/2014, got a little tv/dvd player for $15, and today....today...I finally got a laptop.  Years off-line, except for the Library and Career Centre, have been rough.  Now I can pay my rent by banking on-line, can look for jobs, keep current, find another place if I have to move suddenly, and have access to learning and information.

As a previous computer advanced literate person I felt a lot of apprehension and fear.  Thanks to a kind young man just starting at the store I felt comfortable being a geek with a Capitol G again.  Laugh.

My parents came through for me by giving me some money.  I knew I needed it.  Last year I held off and regretted it.  Not only for the reasons above...I feel like myself when I'm on a computer, typing.  Maybe it is because I'm left handed, prefer a keyboard.

I am so grateful to my family, friends, God, myself for this.  I have tools now.  This gives me options and opportunity.
