Happy Thanksgiving

Wow! I thought I had blogged at least once this month....guess that's what I get for thinking. :) For those who read this Happy Thanksgiving!! I LOVE Thanksgiving! It's just a great time to be with friends and family without all the stress of parties and gift giving.
November for some reason has been a very busy month for me. Seems like I have just really been on the go and doing things a lot, which is good. Gives me less time to get in a depressed state.
One of the biggest events of the month was my 35th birthday. I know most people would NOT be that excited about getting older. For me though, another birthday means another year that I have "made it". You see, for those who don't know me and may be reading this, I wasn't supposed to live to be 18. Well, I have gone well past 18 and that gives me such a feeling of satisfaction! I have 2 great parents who were determined from the "get go" to do what they could for me. I also have an amazing God who blessed me with my parents and lots and lots of wonderful people along the way!! Thank you!!
I'm thinking of starting a book. I'm not going to say at this point what it might be about, but it's been on my mind for awhile. Actually, there are 2 different books I COULD write, I just don't know how to get started on either one. A very wonderful man who I met about 3 yrs ago told me at one time: "just start writing". Good advice!! We will see in the upcoming weeks if either of my ideas take shape.

Remember me??

I'm 2 months into my "new" job and loving it! The school and the kids are a lot of fun!! I'm really drained when I get home in the evenings and have started going to bed early because of it. I'm still doing some of my other activities, but I've had to cut back too.
I was having a lot of trouble with my depression recently, but that seems to be doing better for now. I guess a lot of it has to do with not being done working through "the process" of a couple things have happened in my life over the last couple years. Every time I think I'm done with the "process" something comes back to bite me in the butt, so then I have to re-group. Some times I just feel so lonely and that gets me really down! Thank god for meds I suppose.....AND good friends!!!!
I'm going to try and blog more often. I do know that writing as always helped, so I'm going to make an effort to blog more often. It may not be very exciting, but I'll give it a shot!

This stinks!

My life is soooo exciting at this point I can't keep up!! Uh, do you hear the sarcasam in my voice?? Life is SOOOOOO BORING at this point, I'm about to scream!! I had decided to not have a job this summer due to trying to be with my son a little more and hopefully have him start getting back home. WELL.....he's been moved again. Seems the little squirt did a no-no again in March which caused him to have to move yet again. This move was much farther, like TOPEKA!! Needless to say, I haven't been able to visit him as often or be where I was hoping to be with this whole process. GGGGRRRRR.......KIDS!! Since this turn of events, I have realized I NEED something to do, but now it's kinda late!
I do have a few things still going on, but nothing that is keeping me busy full-time. In the mean-time, my self-esteem has gone to the dogs! Literally!! I feel like I have had so many "bad" things (or has my mother likes to call them "learning experiences", happen recently, that I need something good to come about. So I guess I'm waiting, although not sure what I'm waiting on. Maybe I'm being to hard on myself, or maybe I'm not seeing something....I don't know. All I know at this point is something has to change!!

Interesting stuff??

Trying to keep up on two blogs is interesting. Sometimes, I think I'm going to to post the same thing on both sites. However, if anyone reads both (and who would?) I don't want there to be a chance of them getting bored. Life has settled down for the time being. THANK GOD!! I'm still cautious, but we've gone a couple weeks without much action. It hasn't gone without much discusion and a few mild arguements, but that, I can handle!! It's the "other stuff" that gets tiresome. I'm extremely thankful things have slowed down as my headaches have come back. Damn head!! I think it must be the time of the year. NOTHING has changed in terms of schdule. I never know what to make of these stupid headaches. Just when I think I have 'em figured out, they throw me off. Don't think I will ever figure it out. Would be NICE not to have them at all, but considering.....I always will. Anyway, I'm thankful things have turned around for now and that we are doing better in the "boring" house. I even got a night out to myself last Fri. whoohoo!! One other point of interests or non-interest depending on how one looks at it. I was recently seeing someone. Yep! Me....I "hooked up" with somone, hehe. Don't get too excited, it was pretty short lived. He was a nice guy, but there were a lot of negatives (can't think of a better word) to the relationship. Anyway, not necessarily newsworthy, but hey!, it's something. *grins*....night all!
