where did May go??


i know where it went.

it went on staying sane. on working hard to battle depression - i'm winning right now.

it went on gardening; i figured out that i only have to do a little bit of a corner of the garden and it will be fine. Look at this; it grew just about overnight. i'm working in that rock area; i pulled a bunch of weeds out and put two pepper plants in that i didn't know what else to do with. There are two irises blooming. the buttercups are fiendish, and lovely but overwhelming. My friend Carol came to pick me up for a wellness seminar one night and we walked thru the garden and she told me what "some people consider weeds" and what are good things to leave. I planted the rosemary and the tomatoes and two of the pepper plants in big planters. I just have to remember to water them!

It went on company; sarah and megs came over for the long weekend, bringing two of megan's friends. we had a great time; the boys struck a tent under the grandfather trees in the east garden and, despite the rain, didn't get but a bit wet. I cooked and cooked, made cookies and biscuits, bbq'd chicken. We played trivial pursuit.

it went on school; three weeks of May were spent learning about small business as the Aspire Self Employment Program. Tomorrow is the last of the three weeks, and from now on it will be a day or three a month. My business plan is due in mid June so i still have lots to do. I've also been working on the managment course and have sent one assignment in and almost finished another one.

It went on taking the bus; i am so bloody tired of taking the bus. I really am. We took the bus into Vancouver to visit Aunt Shirley in the hospital. Amber stayed for the weekend and i came home. I really enjoyed the time alone; i slept and

i read. I am reading a book from one of my favourite authors. It is called "the amateur marriage" and written by Anne Tyler.

I also rode my bike. The first time i rode it i wiped out and scraped my shin up pretty good and bruised my hip. Mostly hurt my pride, tho. I'm pretty nervous about riding it and i think that i should try to find someone who will give Amber and I lessons so we can be more mobile.

you know, reading over What happened to May, i'm not surprised i haven't posted in 3 weeks!
