Eight Months Later . . .

Amazing! It's been over 8 months since my last (and only) entry. Much has happened. For one, my doggie is not by my side. She's back in Texas, while I am in California.

I have been promoted to chaffeur and overall Boy Friday to my dad, who is under chemo treatment for Hodgskin's Lymphoma. The cancer was caught on time, and although he feels pretty bad most of the time, the prognosis is pretty darn good. He's pretty much going to make it.

I will be in California until the first week of September, and my doggie will certainly miss me. My friends in Texas and my co-workers miss me too . . . but family is first, as the adage says.

Personally, while I am happy being at home with my parents, I miss my bed, my home, and my roommate. I sort of miss my job, but since I am telecommuting, it's not much of a miss. The team is great, so they just throw me morsels once in a while so I can feel useful.
