i was lost but now am found

hello all.
things have been very hectic here.
after tim's stag & doe danny and i went to housesit for my aunt and uncle for a week. which was nice, but it turned out that my mom was out of town for that week as well - so we had a total of two houses and four cats to look after. it was fun but busy.
then we came home and this week i've been doing some painting for my brother. he is a contractor and needed an extra set of hands. as it turns out i have some. i'm not sure how much help i am but he is keeping me busy. i seriously have no idea how he does it. so if any of you out there feel i might be ignoring your calls - the simple truth is that i have not had time. it had been a rude awakening thats for sure. on how hard the work is and how houses are built. it really is crazy. the work-sire is a total shithole. sometimes literally. i guess one time there was an incident where one of the workers actually pooped in the heating duct of a place they were building. very nice eh? but also there are no women. i feel like i'm a pink elephant in the room. everyone notices me. but no one says anything to or about me.
love you long time.
