Long Time

Been a while since I posted anything. And here and now I have so much running through my brain I don't know where to start. I am thinking about purchasing a new car. Something with much better gas mileage. I can hear a sigh of relief from my Aussie friend along with a muttered "about time". She rants often about gas hogging SUVs. The cost of a carpayment and filling up the new car is about the same as filling up my SUV at this time. If gas increases, then it would be cheaper to have a new car. My dilemma stems from also wanting to buy a home soon. I am afraid a mortgage company will look at my debt ratio if I were to purchase a car and think it too high for a mortgage. And I can't really get a mortgage right now since I am still a temporary at work. I have been assured several times that I am only a temp because I can't be made permanent at this time. But I need my own place soon. And who knows when the temp status will change. See...isn't this all intertwined and confusing? No wonder I am stressed!

Last weekend I went back to Cary/Raleigh. My friend got married. It was a great time. While I was there, I went by my old workplace to say hello to anyone I could find. One individual reacted in a way I never would have imagined. He seemed like he was more than pleased to see me. He has texted me a few times since seeing him. Not sure if that will go anywhere or not. He is a great guy, friendly, intelligent, kind and gorgeous...not often you find that combination. I never would have thought he was interested in more than being friends.

And life goes on...........
