Snow , Dogs , Fishing , and Trucks

                             The snow is steadily coming down , It looks great out there but its cold and really not sure about driving in it . This being my first real winter in years and on top of that I finally have a drivers license after twenty-five years of not needing one . I used live where I could ride a bus or train every where , out here in the country no public transportation . That was hard to get use to . I rode my bike a lot till the temps started dropping . It to cold to ride now , my waist line does miss my ten or more miles a day ride . Truthfully I miss my time out on the back roads , it cleared my head and gave me lots of time to think . Not only that ,the scenery that was there to look at . I think my longest ride was forty-five miles , boy I was tired that day .
                            I have finally made my first ninety days on my new job . Which I plan on staying at till I retire , unless I get lucky and when the lottery . We all know there is a slim chance of that happening . So I guess I have to count on at least another ten years on the job . Its good thing that I am starting to enjoy my job .  So it on to my next goals work on my new hobby wood burning . Also plan on going fishing a lot when the new season starts .So right now I have to get some gear together and boat to use . More importantly a place of my own to live by the end of spring . I just have to keep my eye on my goals .
                             After all this is said and done , I am considering getting a pet cat or a small dog . On one hand the cat will be easier to take care of . A dog I could ride around in the truck , on my bike , go for walks , and take out on the boat fishing . So I guess I am leaning towards a small dog . It all depends on if the place I get to live allows small pets .
                             Things are getting better , I am finding I am thinking about what I left behind less and less.  I do miss some things about Charlotte NC . The job I had , the people I knew , Bojangles and the southern cooking . The last I will make up for when I am in my own place .
                            Tomorrow will a big day though , going to look at a truck hope it will be worth getting . I hope to be driving by the end of day .
