Happy New Year!
We've made it through the first full week of the New Year!
It's been a while since I have actively wrote, so labeling myself a slacker is an understatement.
So with the new year I'm back to regroup, refocus and start the new year with new goals of writing about my journey. I'm taking some of my older writings (blog posts) and making them current with updates. Even though it has been two years +, I feel like I just blinked and haven't moved forward very far. But that couldn't be farther from the truth. Since the move to Colorado, I'm in my third place since I arrived, the new job is fabulous and I continue to move forward with getting things done!
Before leaving California, just like before I moved away from Montana, I found myself in a funk. I don't want to say depression but definitely just treading water to stay afloat (emotionally, physically and financially). Each time when I decided to take the steps to move on / forward, to break free from all the negative residue left over from a spouse, marriage and family of interfering in-laws to only land in the same type of manipulative and abusive relationship with relatives / family (two brothers). It was only a year before I realized staying was not the right option for me, for my health both emotionally and physically, it was time to take the next step and make yet another move. Though that second move from California to Colorado took another five years to actually happen, I'm happy to share that I've now surrounded myself with people that truly love and support me. I'm living on my own and no longer afraid of my past, blessed in the present and faith filled for my future!
Just my 2 cents!
