I may not be blogging as much as I was when I did but I am
slowly getting better. It is October and I am excited to watch the leaves change
color as I enjoy a Wisconsin fall. The trees are changing, the deer are
foraging in the backyard and I am anxiously and excitedly waiting for my first
time sledding! Here in Wisconsin they get enough snow to actually sled. Why I
had no desire to do this in Chicago, Utah or New Jersey I do not know, but I am
truly looking forward to it. I cannot wait to take fly down a hill at umpteenth miles per hour with the wind in my face! Prepare for the pictures, there will probably be many. You know me and pictures, we go together like hot chocolate and whip cream.
I've started working with the goal to get my own apartment and support myself. This will be the first time I have ever lived completely on my own and I am rather looking forward to doing things the way I want without worry about pleasing someone else. There are times I am scared and I worry, but overall the feeling is one of excitement. I sometimes worry about having times of loneliness but I tend to find things to do rather easily and this is a time to find out how to be happy without depending upon another. My best friend and her family are generously allowing me to stay with them as I get on my feet and I will forever be grateful. Sometimes her simple confidence in me is so reassuring above all else. She is an inspiration to me in so many ways as she's had to find herself after losing much in her life.
The place where all the magic happens for work. You can not say that my love of school/office supplies is not finally coming handy! Lucky for me, my best friend has the same addiction. :)
Of course change does not come without sacrifice. I miss the kids so much during this time. I am used to seeing them everyday so going from that to nothing is extremely hard. I miss them daily.
Some of the daily sights I see while looking in the backyard. So peaceful.......
