Have you ever been sitting in your home, looked around, and just been amazed that you lived there? Our house isn't large, and it isn't in the best neighbourhood, but it's a nice house, and for the most part, the area is quiet. It's close enough to downtown that we can walk, and far enough from downtown that it isn't surrounded by noise. We found it in November almost two years ago, and it's hard to believe we've been here that long. You can see both of our personalities sprinkled throughout our home and it's just so nice. I want to put up an enlarged photo I have taken, but I am still deciding what would match the rest of the decor. As introverts we don't have many guests over, so not many people have actually seen the house. I'm super okay with it. Two of my best friends have been inside, one has not. Rachel has seen the outside of it, but she's too busy to be available to come over. It sometimes saddens me how life can get in the way like that.
Last night was a send off for Skyler. After thirteen years, he's left our work to go elsewhere. It was bittersweet for a lot of us. A few don't get the big deal, but they haven't known him for several years. Probably Jodi and I were the most upset. I've known him for eleven years, and she's known him for twelve. Crazy. It is what it is. Hopefully he is happy at his new career.
Chris has been stressed at work lately. There's a warehouse issue and the entire province is suffering an alcohol shortage because of it. He's been working overtime a lot lately and becoming down from the stress. He has no control over the situation but he struggles to let it go. I feel so bad for him and wish I could help him. So I just let him rant and give him advice and positive words of encouragement when needed. It helps that I understand the struggle he goes through at work. Especially at a management level. Sometimes you just get shit on. It sucks.
