Happy New Year- and yes my mood has started changing too!!!

Well it is now 2009. I can not believe it is. The past year has had a lot of ups and downs for me. Thank god Jesse was able to just get through each day with me, not sure how he stuck through it all. I know my moods got pretty bad and I didn't even want to live anymore. Christmas was not a very happy time for me but shortly after my mood started to shift and my mind started to slow down on all the bad stuff running through it. I closed the cab early on New Years and decided to get a little crunk with the rest of the world. Yeah and i did too. I started out with a simple bud light at home, that didn't last long. I went downtown and had about 5 jager-bombs then went to the shop party Jesse was supposed to be at. Nothing really entertaining going on there and i was feeling pretty good. Went home and had a few there. The only sucky part was at midnight I didn't get a kiss or a Happy New Year from Jesse. He was preoccupied having to watch his kids and then went out to his party without realizing I was alive. That is the Jesse I am used to. So I quit drinking at 1am and decided to relax. Needed to be up and around for scheduled cab rides at 8am. Yup I passed out completely. Got up and started my day on time and that was that. I would have liked to have had a little time with Jesse for New years but have gotten used to not getting it. I had lots of people who were disappointed that I did not run the cab but they were more disappointed that they did not get a chance to have a drink with me since I had actually taken a night to drink. It is weird- the cab and all. I figured having a cab was just that but my cab seems to be where all the people really get to talking and I get to know them at least a bit. It is kinda nice to know exactly who I am driving around for the most part and be able to hold conversations with them. God only knows I wouldn't really have anyone to talk to if I didn't have the cab going. It has been fun. It's had its up days and its down days but all in all it is a perfect job for me. I have been looking for another driver for my company to get me some free time from time to time just to relax or get things done at a more timely fashion. I believe I have found him too. I just have to actually hire him now. All background info came back spotless and he already has a chauffeurs license. He is the perfect candidate that has come forward looking for work. Well that about sums up my new years and the first couple of days in the new year.
