Hello? Is there anyone out there?  I do apologize. I have, as always, had good intentions in blogging more, but they have not come to fruition.

But tonight I find myself sitting quietly in a sort of sick room vigil, two of the children are quite ill, and I thought, perhaps, I should write something. so. here I am. writing something.

ummmmmmm

so. life update? I am working full time now as an assistant manager. Its not my dream job, by any means, but I am finding a sort of joy in it, and it pays the bills and gives me health insurance. so that's good.

I am still finding myself a bit. this new me is sometimes a stranger and sometimes a friend. i've come so very far in the past year. learning. healing. finding joy. finding hope. finding new friends, growing with old ones.

the most fun thing has been revamping my wardrobe. I get a generous discount, and I use it frequently, lol. The only bad thing (which isn't bad at all) is that after I started working full time and bought new clothes, I started losing weight like crazy. I've gone down almost 3 sizes since June.  it was unexpected, but welcome nonetheless. I feel much better in general.

I still have a long journey ahead of me, but looking back over this past year, I can really see how I've grown and changed and I am pleased so far with where I see myself heading in the future.
