Hi everyone or at least hi to those of of you still passing through what surely must have looked like an abandoned blog. I am doing fine. My commercial interior design job continues to roll along thankfully. I thought there might be a chance it would be over this month since my status has always been “phase out” since turning down the full-time salaried position to purse working a day a week on my own business. The intern we had finished up last week and the boss wanted her real bad. But the intern turned down work for now to explore other options with larger firms. They plan on following up with her in a month. So thus the reprieve.
The new business venture (residential design firm) is moving along slowly but we are picking up some good high-end residential projects. Hopefully they will lead to other referral high-ends or comebacks.
Outside that, I have been busy attempting to make more friends, but this time with an emphasis on local. I miss all my new-found friends and the places I have seen but with funds a bit tighter now, I can’t get out on as many trips. And if you have met me, you know that I am a bit of a social person. I have found that just sitting back and hoping to run into local people doesn’t work. So I am stepping out. Joined Bear411 and boy am I getting bombarded with messages. Meeting the gamet of guys but damn, some of them are hunks. *drool, slobber, growl, slurp* LOL! And I am off to the races meeting them. I had a delectable massage two weeks ago by one hunky bear. I will see him and a few other Bear411 acquaintances in San Diego this Saturday for a LLBear Dance at Rich’s. I think there is a Mr. Leather SD that night at Rich’s too. Hold me down. LOL Sunday I am off to meet my friend Mark in North Hollywood. He is the author/teacher/ex-priest that I wrote about a couple of articles back. And I may still be meeting another Bear411 acquaintance Sunday afternoon who lives in the L.A. area as well.
So all is reasonably well. Spider is doing fine. He’s attempting to pick up his life after the year from hell. He’s actively searching for part-time consulting work, part-time because he’s still nursing the heart along. We won’t know about a clean bill of health on the cancer front until sometime in late April. But for now he is done with Chemo. He so needs the break.
Anyhow, again hope all is well with you. Leave word here on how each of you have been doing. I apologize for not being able to visit blogs as frequently, if at all. Hugs to all.

Glad you are indeed still alive :-). One can never have enough bears in life IMHO ;-).
Thanks for the updates on yourself and on Spider.

Glad to read that you and Spider are doing well. Things are going well with me too. The Spring Semester is plodding along. Right now I’m waiting for us to get our AutoCAD Architecture 2009 update.
