Not forgotten...

I haven't forgotten about my dear little blog, my trials of life story...I'm just busy. Ivebtaken some good photos lately & I've got some good & some 'ok' things going on. I will make myself less busy so as to ponder on the meaning of life again soon. Until then, I'm going to try taking my medicine (which should have been done before 9a today), getting out of the bike shorts I've been in for 4+ hours (ouch), wash the stink off me & try to sleep!

Life is very good.

Pendulum swing...

I looked through some of my ramblings over the past year a couple of days ago. It's been a journey, I'll give it that much. I'm not sure I can really give it much more. As with all things, I don't know that I'd undo any of it, because it wouldn't have brought me to this moment, but I might've made the journey a little easier and/or enlightened myself if I knew the pain & BS I would have to walk through. But walk through it I did, and here I am. I've come out the other side of a tough part of my life, albeit not unscathed as mentioned, but remarkably happy.

I have a great job - or what looks like a great job if we're able to make progress & pursue some of the opportunities that we've begun discussing. I have a decent house - yeah, I live in the ghetto (or on the edge of it if you're asking my mother) & I don't really feel safe going anywhere after dark without the dogs on high alert, but it's a decent house at a decent price that holds all of my stuff. And that's a lot of stuff! (Once I finally get it all put away and/or out of the garage I might have a better idea of just how much of it I really need....) I have loose associations with some great local athletes. Hopefully as time progresses I'll be able to develop some friendships out of those that will at least make the training (or the drives to the training) a little more palatable. But I'm looking at regaining my fitness & that feels great. And I'm dating a wonderful man. One who's hell-bent on taking care of me & with whom things are easy, comfortable, relaxed & cute. I'm sure there'll be more on that later.

Suffice it to say that this year has started out wonderfully. I'm glad to be where I'm at.
