My life seems to be full of things I am trying to do. I am trying to run more. Granted, twice is more than none at all.
I am also trying to cook fresh dinners more.
I am trying to train my dogs more, get back to my art work, finish several knitting projects and get started on several more...
I am trying to keep my house clean, but with three dogs, two cats, and one husband it's challenging. I just KNOW I will appreciate having only five animals (well six if you count the husband) when we have(a) child(ren).
I am trying to learn to appreciate Led Zeppelin because everyone else in the world thinks they are musical gods so what's wrong with me...
I am trying to do something else with my hair besides the same old ponytail (actually I'm not trying that hard).
Wow, look how many times I wrote "I"... I'm done now...

Avery Island
Louisiana is home to Tabasco sauce on Avery Island. The Tabasco factory was eh... but Jungle Garden nearby was really nice.

I'm back
I really had no intention of blogging again. But while I was home for my brother's funeral Cassie told me that she had read my blog regularly. Ok, Cassie, here we go again.
Umm.... so what's going on? Now that I'm back in Lafayette and done traveling it is really hitting me that Ronny is dead. Hitting me like a ton of bricks. It makes breathing and moving difficult. Oh and caring... I just don't care. Yet I go through the motions of field work, school work, cleaning.... and so it gets done.
If you're at all interested in some incredibly sad music to melt to, I recommend:
February Song by Josh Groban
The Funeral by Band of Horses
Lonely Day by System of the Down
Hello by Evanescence
a song (I don't know what it's called from Black Hawk Down)
Senza Fiato by Dolores O'Riordan and Giuliano Sangiorgi
We have one puppy left and I have sneaky suspicion that he's going to stay... That means I need more help from Alan in taking care of them. As I said, I just don't care right now.
Funny story: yesterday while out at a field site I had to go to the bathroom in the woods. Normal thing I do when needed (and frankly the woods is cleaner than some spots we've found). I finish my business, get back to the truck and move on to the next track plate spot. I feel itching and stinging in my pants along my underwear line. I go back into the woods to check on it and I have ants in my pants! Literally! Unfortunately they were fire ants. Fortunately they didn't bite my rear, but they did bite my hand and arm. And usually I am so careful about where I pee....
