Earthquake Thread ~ Always Updated

well I'm shaking like a leaf and hoping I don't regret this, because I am so tired of always looking back and saying I should have done this or shouldn't have done that, but I took a leap of faith, realized that certain things were just really getting to me too much, and gave notice to where I am living at and will be hitting the road and leaving this place by October 1st. If I haven't found a place that allows three dogs and a smoker and toker but someone whoPAYS THE RENT ON TIME AND DOESN'T DESTROY SHIT by then, I will just find a motel room that does until I do.

I realized when my cigs go up from one carton a month to TWO cartons because I am smoking MORE because I HAVE to go outside, and building up a resentment every single time I do it, that it's not healthy for me. I tried to adapt and count my blessings because it's a beautiful place, but it's not what makes me happy, and I guess I am just too set in my ways where certain things are concerned to even WANT to change, so what gave was ME.

sorry for rambling so much here. my heart is pounding because this is big for me, but I have to trust myself for a change.

I should've been more specific. My bad. I was only referring to M flares. : )

Good for you!

Why not check into a small used rv or travel trailer? The pets are welcome, the smoke and toke is welcome and if you don't like the scenery or the neighbors..no problem!

That's exactly what I would do. The heck with being trapped in one place, surrounded by people I don't even associate with, much less like. People in campgrounds always seem to come together for one another when the going gets tough.
And the atmosphere is always laid back.

Oh no that's my bad...sorry.

You got me on that one. I should have paid better contention...lol

I just went outside to get some yard work done. I came back it. It's awful out. Hazy even at ground level, the air is dense and smells like a cigar ashtray out. I'm suprsed it's so bad in the Seattle area. It's even breezy out. I took some pics about 4:30ish.

My pics in Tacoma. I didn't use a dumb Instagram filter either. It's really that weird color out. Not very bright either.

I must agree Jazzy....

I have a membership for thousand trails, its like $500 a year, i can camp from BC to Arizona for almost nothing...

the first 30 days are free and $3 a night after that....

not a bad idea if you are looking for a place to settle...good way to see it all...

change is always a good thing

This is HUGE hun. And as I have always said, please feel free to vent away here. : )

That was a big move. Big step. And things will work out for you. If things weren't going to work out you would not have given notice. I believe this will work out for you. And I will keep you in my heart and prayers that they do.

I will need the same from you soon. You've got this!

oh hon if I can't find a place, I'll just keep my friends in my heart and THAT will be my place.

Smoke rolling into the Puget Sound region early this morning.
Last smoke doom post, really. I found another link for the smokey satellite. It even has all the big fires marked with a red icon. image [link to rapidfire.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov]

that clip was beautiful but somber. The smoke does get pretty bad, even if makes for stunning scenery at a distance.

this was the other week when the Rogue River fire was burning near me. [link to imgur.com]

here's some more of my pics, some aren't that good, but I have been thinking of doing something with some of them..combining them with something ..I dunno..

thanks! I have been kicking around the idea of making prints or postcards..greeting cards..something like that..I don't know it these are exactly what you call 'gallery quality' by a long shot, but I am mulling over some ideas on combining my photos with frames I handmake from materiels I gather on the beach, or stones I buy at the craft areas..the polished ones..or even polishing some up myself.

but I want to stay small and just have whatever I could fit in a car, too, and I still don't know exactly what it is ..and am thinking of sand art too, of all things, and coloring..

yeah, I'm all over the place, lol.

edit: am thinking of doing sand art and making designs like these I have colored in on flat stones or wood..
