Sigh... yet again, another week (or two) of neglecting my loving audience. Sorry folks. Its been quite the rollercoaster the past couple of weeks. Where to begin? How about I just do bullet points:
- I've been lobbying and selling myself for a cool job that I REALLY want (details to follow later). Its been quite emotionally exhausting as I've really put myself out there, but it has greatly paid off (thanks RS).
- Just ended a 2-year project and am now looking forward to the prospect of 2 more years of "more of the same" (at least I work at home...). That's why I want the above...
- Went to Phoenix AZ for my sister's wedding for Memorial Day weekend
- Met the fiance for the first time, two days before the wedding. He's 48, has 3 kids ranging in age from 4 to 24 years old. I'm speculating that they all have different mommies.
- My sister announces at rehersal dinner that she's PREGNANT
- The wedding is a QUAKER ceremony, which was "interesting" and "different". Turned out to be nice. Very touchy-feely (prolly shoulda worn a pair of Birks), but nice.
- The wedding is outside in a desert botanical garden under the mid-afternoon blazing sun
- I forgot my black shoes at home, so I had to run around suburban PHX in search of the perfect black shoes (so many emotional issues surrounding that issue to begin with...)
- On top of it all, everyone in my family had some kind of emotional feelings surrounding this marriage, so it was a pretty charged weekend.
Thank god I was already scheduled to see my therapist on Tuesday.
I guess that sums it all up in a nutshell. So pls forgive my blog negligence as I've been rather preoccupied :-(
I need to also evaluate the direction that I am taking this blog. Don't worry, I don't plan on shutting anything down!
