Nice to see you around, Little. Would you care to give us a bit more of an update? What exactly are you doing? What's fun? What's hard? What's working?

Mmmm.....no budget set as yet, but definitely becoming better about not eating out as much. I was gifted with a dorm fridge (my apartment has no kitchen because it's an in-law unit), and that's helped. I'm buying cheap soups and such, which oddly is also helping me lose weight -- I'm assuming it's the portion control.
I also got a library card, so I'm not buying books to feed my habit. I'm a voracious reader with two libraries at my disposal between work and home, so thumbs up to that.
As an introvert, I'm alternating my time between going out with friends and enjoying the solitude of living in a house with no one but the cats.
Emotionally, I'm sort of on neutral ground. I miss and love BF to the point I don't even feel like dating anyone else (I played around on Plenty of Fish and OKCupid), but the knowledge I'll have to live without someone I feel like is my other half has sort of waned in pain factor. It doesn't gouge at me and make me panic like it used to.
Other than that it's pretty status quo. I like the stability of routine, so I'm settled and kind of floating through life.

Good to see you Little! I know you what mean about being on that neutral ground emotionally. I struggle with being an introvert and trying to GAL, because left to my own devices, I am perfectly fine curled up at home with the dog, watching a good movie, reading a book or just "being".
Thinking of you today and sending you positive thoughts.

Hi Little - hope you're doing okay? Are you still raiding the local library? (fellow book lover here!) So Edz - what's the difference between a doodle and a tootle do you think?
