Thanksgiving 2013

One year ago today, I was living in the middle east some 10,000 miles from home working 12 hour shifts at night.  Two years ago, I was beginning the journey just to get there.  I had been in debt and was tired of the pressure of having so many bills hanging over my head.
The feeling that I was just living to work was depressing and I wanted a change.

I am thankful that I was able to live like that for a season…it makes it so easy appreciate family, friends, life and where I live now. 

I am thankful for having met so many friends along the journey thus far.
Even if we never meet again, it has changed me for the better.  The memory of our encounters and the effects have become a part of who I am. Thank you all!

More to come.

New beginnings

This year has had to be the fastest one in a long time. I have had little time to be bored and just as little time to really find myself with absolutely nothing to do. I have to say,I have enjoyed the busy pace because it’s hard to be down when you are busy with so many good things going on that keep you focused. I have been single since this summer after a long relationship and while its ending was unexpected, I think that it may have been in order. We still spend time together doing things but it just hasn’t been the same and I don’t see it going back to what it once was. You know the old saying…”once bitten, twice shy”.
This winter I anticipate a busy season of continuing to work at a new job and I expect that I will discover time to enjoy being out of my little town/fishbowl. You may recall an entry early in my blog about square goldfish. I think that it’s time to take a look around and see if the sides of my tank are closing in again as I suspect that they are.
