Long Time, No Blog

Dang. It’s been like three months. Sheesh. I can’t believe I’m such a slacker.

Really. I did intend to be a better blogger this year. Honest. And I still intend to be. Obviously I need to work on that a bit.

So much has happened in the last three months!! Where to even start?? I guess the obvious place to start would be . . . MY NEW JOB!!! I can’t believe I finally got a new job. And it’s the Best. Job. EVER. I am so LUCKY. I like what I do, and I love the people in my office, and everyone there has been so, so nice to me. There is so much to learn and I am so excited about that. I am planning on taking some classes at the college this fall . . . . Medical Terminology and Medical Coding.

I feel so much more relaxed now. I sleep better. I don’t have as many disturbing dreams (more on that in a later post). I am not as cranky. I have more energy. I feel more social. I feel like I am smiling more. I can’t believe how much different I feel. I knew I would feel better, but this is more, way more, than I ever expected.

In a week, I will have been at my new job for a month. A whole month!! I can’t believe how fast that went. Time goes so much quicker when I am not miserable all the time.

I am having so much more fun!! I feel hopeful again, like things are just going to keep getting better. It seems like I went through so many months (ok, maybe years) of rough times that it’s hard to believe it’s finally turning around. Hard to let it in. But it feels like everything is moving in a more positive direction and I feel strong and relaxed and happy and excited. It’s such an incredible relief, such a weight off my mind. I didn’t realize how really bad it had become until now, didn’t realize how very much it was affecting everything . . . my sanity, my health, my happiness, my desire to interact with people, my relationships, my desire and ability to grow. Every. Thing.

I know this is a short post. I feel like I should be writing a big, long post to make up for all the weeks I have slacked off. But this is better than nothing and hopefully it will kickstart me!
