Another year older

This past Saturday was my 54th birthday. I would like to thank everyone again for sending me e-mails and calling me to wish me a happy birthday.... I can't believe the years are pasting by so quickly. I can remember when I was younger that I couldn't wait until I turned 21, now 33 years later I am saying what the hell happen????? LOL Looking back I have become a nurse, had three children, two divorces, and have moved to Ireland. WOW That would be the short story, sometimes when I feel typing a lot I will expand more.

This week I got everything straighten out as for as my work permit and residency for another year. The good thing is I don't have to have a work permit anymore because I have a stamp 4 immigration stamp on my passport . I can file for my citizenship next month(which will take 15 months to process) I will be glad when all this is over so I don't have to go through this every year.

My business is going kind of slow this time of year with everyone going on vacation and all. Still trying to get it together as for as a place to show the jewelry so when I can't get a party booked at least I will have that every week to do..... So we have to wait until after the Bansha festival before we can move forward with that because we are planning on having the room in a pub in Bansha.

I have enter my dog in the Bansha show this year. The show is kind of like a county fair in the USA, only its for a day. People bring their crafts, live stock and such to be judged. So they have a Dog show along with all the other events...I have entered her in 4 events so hopefully she will do something. If not, I will forget the shows and just breed her because she is a nice friendly dog and has come from good stock.....

Still working night shifts this month so this has upset my bio rhythm, even on my nights off I don't feel like sleeping at normal times so I usually stay up until 3 or 4 in the morning. Hopefully it will be for this month only..... I don't think I could keep this up for too long, then again I don't like day shift either. LOL Now that I don't need a work permit in order to remain in the country it would be nice if the jewelry business took off really well so I could spend full time on that unstead of having to work as a nurse also, but for now it pays the bills.
