Winter 2014

As I write this, the snow is flying past my window.  It is light and fine, like dandruff!  I have officially started college!  I am nervous and excited at the same time!  I think the only thing that really scares me is the APA style of writing papers.  I am good at writing, but getting used to that format is a little frightening.
I have been spending a little more time at Peaceful Acres.  I am supposed to go today for Buddy up 101 and an oils class but with the snow, and the fact that I am out of propane and don't have any hot water, kind of makes me want to just stay home!  I am waiting on propane delivery.  There is such a high demand that they can't get to all the customers, so I am hoping they come in a couple days.  
I broke down and got a dog.  His name was Shadow, but I re-named him Oliver and call him Ollie.  He is a great little dog, but will go potty in the house if he feels like it.  He does ask to go out sometimes.  I am going to have to invest in industrial size pee pads for him!  I have them for little dogs, but it is hit or miss with him. 
Isn't he adorable?  He also has issues with food aggression.  Something I need to work with him on.  He won't replace Buzzy, but he helps fill the hole in my heart.  He is a real sweet dog, I think he was mistreated by his former owners.  He is anxious and cowers sometimes.  
I have still been watching the antics of the assholes around here.  With winter it is pretty quiet.  I had a restraining order against Eric given to me by the judge.  He is to stay away from me.  I really hope he gets evicted.  The sheriff was at his house the other day.
This guy is such a douche and a lot of people have been complaining about him.  He was driving his jeep up and down log piles and then up and down snow banks.  Driving all around the park revving the Jeep.  He must of been told to quit the shit because he hasn't done it lately.  He really scared me the other day because his kids were outside playing just feet away while he was driving his jeep up a huge snow pile.  If it slipped or tipped over, they would of been crushed.
I spend way too much time obsessing over that jerk and what he is doing.  
The birds are hitting the feeders hard this winter.  I haven't seen any redpolls or grosbeaks yet.  I hope they come and visit.  This is about the time of year for them.  
I guess I will hit the publish button because nothing really exciting is happening.  :)
