SHI BLOGS TOO

Friday the 13th.

Well, today is Friday the 13th, and I am not even superstitious, so don't ask me why I even mentioned it! Somehow it just popped into my head as the title for this entry.

Maybe, that's because my life has become rather boring as of late and I have nothing new to say here...

I realize that that is not even funny...so why am I laughing?

Who knows perhaps something interesting could happen to me today. But, I wouldn't wager on it that's for sure. This mountain life has really gotten to me these past several months. First it was cabin fever from being snowed in for weeks on end, and now I think it is just plain boredom. Co-existing with a partner who is pretty much a loner does not present a social life to one like myself who used to thrive on it's healthy attributes to my well being. There I got that off my chest. Now, do I feel better? Not really, I can't seem to shake this overpowering feeling of isolation living in this beautiful, but remote mountain community.

I find myself looking forward to more visits away from home than in previous years. I am more than ready to hop the train again and visit my daughter next week for a few days as we planned. Her hubby will be gone out of state then to teach some classes through the Naval Shipyard where he is a Journeyman Shipfitter in Bremerton. She is looking forward to having me there overnight with just her and the kids while he is gone.

I am sure the visit will do wonders for cheering me up also.
