So who started the fire...

Ok so I haven't gotten off my butt in a while and posted anything. well I made a new blog sometime in June just for my writing and photography stuff... its called the Untamed Quill so hopefully i still keep up with this one from time to time. I think I'm just going to blog about happenings and whatnot here.

So I don't remember where I left off on news wise here lol so I'm just going to start talking about the past few days or so.

Montana fair ended on the 18th of this month. I had four entries and none of them won a darn thing. That's life, I know i should be proud of myself for even entering something, but somehow I'm bummed. I never really went and saw them on display, but I did get to the fair on the 10th for the "sneak a peek" afternoon. Comeplete let down. I paid to get in the gates and was beelining it to the Cedar hall where my work was judged and waiting to tell me how well or how shitty I did. I waited out by the door because I thought it wasnt open yet as only the gates were at the time. Little did I know till later that night that the fair people decided to leave the Cedar hall and a few other exhibits closed until the next day. what a bummer since I had to work most of the days the fair was here in town. Ugh...

I did try to get back to the fair, but it didn't happen. I kept myself too busy cleaning house and working on getting ready for the fall semester at school. Which i finally wrapped up loose ends yesterday the 20th and am looking forward to start of classes on the 5th of Sept.I could go on and on about classes and the fact that if I had more confidence in my self I would have applied for the nursing program and gotten in... ugh...

Anyway the major issue right now is a fire burning only a few miles from us. I don't know if I've mentioned it or not but smoke and me don't mix. I can't breathe and nothing I do is really helping. I have fans and air purifiers on full blast and  have taken my inhalers religiously, but still i can't breath nor it seems keep awake. I went to bed last night woke up and nine this morning and was going to get moving for the day, but ended up going back to sleep until near 4 this afternoon... holy hell that was lazy lol. let me see if I can post a picture of the fire on here or at least a link to the story...

heres a link to my FB photo... its taken right outside the house. and no its not a thunderhead, but the top of the smoke plume...https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=3835905531002&set=a.1809826480292.2099594.1078871013&type=3
 heres an image i took on teh way home right after the fire started..






yeah  I'm headed right about where the smoke is located, just on the other side of the  southern rims... uhhh... so not fun... its at least ten times that size now and growing still. the winds are pushing it northward and to the west. thank god because  its not coming this direction as far as i know. hopefully they get a handle on it... real soon.

Another recent issue is the fact that I have Bursitis in my hip. or had... hopefully it is getting better and not sticking around. I was on the worst crap ever.... prednisone in order to decrease the inflammation to the joint and let me tell you that stuff is one of the major reasons why I'm fat... I really dont eat much, but whenever I have to take that crap its like something triggers in my body and it gains huge amounts of weight. so far I haven't gained anything... thank god!!!... i need to lose the seventy pounds that the last batch of prednisone last winter put on... anyway back to bursitis... it feels like a constant charlie horse that wont let up no matter what you do. right now it doesnt bother me until i try to bend down and grab something off the floor, sit down, or drive for long periods...  and ihave had it for nearly three weeks.

Well I am out for now, going to work on typing up the first part of my new attempt at writing... I've written ten pages so far lol one night while work was boringly slow... and hope to get a few more pages going tonight or tomorrow.
