HELLO!!!
I haven’t been
able to afford internet since I moved off on my own and when I do get the
chance to get online I always have 7 billion things to do and don’t have time
to blog!!
Boy do I have a lot to tell you!!
I absolutely LOVE it here! Moving is one of the BEST
decisions I’ve ever made in my whole life. Ever. Everything is freaking
AMAZING!!! I don’t even know how to describe it but for the past few months
I’ve been in this euphoric state just resting in the peace that everything is
as it should be, and knowing that I wouldn’t change a thing about where I am or
who is in my life right now.
So much has happened in my life - dysfunctional and emotionally unstable
parents, moving over and over, being uprooted from schools and neighborhood
friends, family members passing away, and me growing up and struggling with my
own relationships...things have just not always been the easiest. (although I’ve
always been blessed with amazing family and support groups!)
But life is SO different here! I was blessed with a
wonderful church and families here that take care of me and
make me feel loved! For several months I had a job that
was…not my favorite...but then just recently I landed the most perfect job ever! I love, love,
LOVE my job!!! I sleep through the night without problems, I smile when I
wake up, I feel like my future looks bright and sunshiny :)
I don’t even feel like the same person I was when I started
this blog two years ago. I mean, the core things are the same I suppose, but I
am different. Maybe it’s because of where I am right now, or maybe it’s because
everyone changes as they grow.
As for a boyfriend, well, I’m still waiting for that white
horse to gallop up my driveway. ;) I have gone on a date or two (hence the
title) but they were just...raisins. Kinda burnt out, squishy and uninspired. I
don’t want to marry a raisin. I don’t really know what kind of food item I
would like to marry (an avocado maybe? I LOVE GUAC!!) but I know that I’ll know
it when I see it.
(You gotta admit it's sexy)
I also know that I feel such a great peace here and God has provided for me in so many ways and I just know He’ll make it happen when the time is right. He’s pretty cool like that.
I love you all and I miss interacting with you. Maybe
someday soon I’ll have my own stories to share and ways I can relate and I’ll
be able to be more involved. Until then, MUAH!
JJ
