Looooong time, no see!

It's been several months since I posted anything. A lot has happened, and I don't even know where to begin! There have been some really difficult times, and some really wonderful times. Of the wonderful times was my visit home in August, which included: spending 5 straight days of 24 hours with the kids, Brittany's wedding, meeting my new niece Violet, seeing friends and family.

When I got back to Florida, I felt like I had started a new chapter. It was very odd. Almost like something snapped, and I felt normal again. Which is very odd, since I didn't fully realize that I hadn't been 'normal' since before I'd moved. My mom had told me, but I brushed her assessment aside. So, super good news, I'm back! :)

My birthday was this week. I celebrated my 35th with new friends and old friends. I'm thankful for all the cards from home. It's always difficult to be away on birthdays and holidays.

Last night, Bernadette and I went to see Cirque Du Soleil: La Nouba at Downtown Disney. It's such a wonderful show! We were 2nd row from the stage, which proved awesome and also neck-straining during the high trapeze act.

I've started some new songs, which are coming together nicely as far as words go. The tunes and music portion are still not even close! BUT, it's a great start after being blocked for over a year.

As Walt Disney said, "keep moving forward". And that's what I intend to do.
