Another Long Weekend Coming

Well, last weekend was a nice 3 day weekend and I have another coming this weekend. Last weekend Guild Wars 2 Heart of Thorns came out and so did the Guild Wars 2 Halloween stuff. I thought I was going to play nothing but Halloween since it only lasts for 2 weeks. After many hours in the labyrinth and doing some of the same old same old content that comes every year, I started working on the new expansion. I really got sucked in! All the new challenges and getting glider wings! Oh my! Sooo much fun to fly! Some of the new areas are just beautiful! This game was definitely worth the cost!




I did have some trouble with my AC again. It was freezing up. Turns out it was really low on Freon. Hadn't had it checked in a couple of years so I guess that is on me. So that puts me spending over $400 in the last few weeks on the air. Other than that and my mom worrying me off an on, I got to play a pretty good bit this past weekend. It was nice for a change.


I also got a package from my friend last weekend. We call her Wolfie in the game. She sent me some lovely things for Yule. She sent it early because two of the things were edible, a lovely Stollen bread and an Italian cake. So far I've eaten the Stollen. It was delicious! I found a place that carries them online but they are out of stock. Oh well. She also sent me some moon wind chimes that are blue, my favorite color, some Thai coffee (hoping to sample that this weekend) and a unicorn candle holder which is kind of an in game joke amongst my guild. I've got a couple of little things for her so far but not sure what she wants. I do have an idea but will have to research further.




This coming weekend is Halloween and I have another 3 day one. I do have some errands to run but am hoping to get to play a lot more this weekend as well. I'm hoping I can get my bestie involved in the new game and hoping she will have some patience with it. It is tough but with a group, it isn't as bad. We die a lot, especially when trying to find hero and mastery points by gliding but it is a lot of trial and error. I've got to get her to the new area so she can be there for the taking of the guild hall. Sooo excited about that!



I'm still waiting on news of when we will be off for Christmas and New Year's this year. I try to take off a few days to give me a long stretch of days to relax, play games, catch up on some tv and just recharge. I usually lose a lot of sleep in November and December as well so it is good to take some naps and catch back up.



My birthday is in December, so I will take off an extra day for that to make a long weekend. Here's hoping my stalker won't be sending a gift or card this year. After 3 years of not being friends, you'd think he'd get a clue but he refuses to even consider that we might no longer be friends. I guess I should say she because he wants to be a woman now. I don't have a problem with people that are true transgender but his seems to be all about getting attention. He is all about drama and attention and is always a victim. Hmmm...maybe he really is a girl. I'm not friends with those types of girls though. LOL Anyway, glad I left that mess behind me. I don't have to give him rides all the time to stuff which was a long trip for me and a lot of gas and mileage on my car any more and I don't have to feed him when I brought him to my house to hang out. Hopefully this year he'll finally accept that I'm not going to come running back to him/her to be friends and just leave me alone. I've got friends now that treat me better and don't try to drag me into drama. Everyone has some drama in their life but you don't have to create it and make mountains out of mole hills.



One exciting thing is that I found my rope chain and Bast charm that I lost back in February. Now that it is getting colder and I was pulling out more winter type clothes, there it was, in a pocket! I thought it was gone for good and had ordered another Bast charm just like it that I managed to find in an Egyptian store but I still didn't have a chain for it. I'm glad to make that one the spare now because these are hard to find. They have to actually be ordered from Egypt.




Maybe things are going to turn around. This has been a rough year with all the expenses and such I've had plus the trip to the ER and having to deal with having a heart arrhythmia. I still blame my mom for that one. ;) Seems like every time I save a little money, something pops up to take it like having to get a new fridge, AC issues, car issues, plumbing and all the other stuff in between. Then there was the ER visit that cost me like $3000 or more after insurance. Here's hoping 2016 will be better!
