I'm Back...

It's been a while. Okay, it's been a long while since I have blogged. But I haven't been in the mindset to do so. So much has happened in the last year. This time last year, I was in Guatemala getting ready to make a visit to NC to see my friend, Mendle, get married.

My decision to come back from Guate was a difficult one. I had become depressed in Guate. I'm at the point in my therapy where I can admit this. I felt lonely. My Guate-buddy had gotten married and moved out of the Lemonade House, which left me alone a lot of the time. I'm super happy for Donnie and Eva, in they have just celebrated their first wedding anniversary (still the best wedding that I have ever been to).

I moved back to NC last August. It was a traumatic move. I had "the week of cake"... which was basically me laying on the couch for 18 hours a day only consuming cake. Luckily, "the week of cake" was temporary and that part of my depression has died off.

Long story short... I just started a new job, and I'm doing okay at it. It's certainly not my big passion in life, but it provides a paycheck and is low-stress. I'm getting out with friends, which is new and different. I get to visit my nieces and nephew, and have a new niece on the way which is super-exciting.

I have so much to talk about... but I don't want to cram it all into one blogpost.
