The Difference a Year Makes

Wow... I haven't written anything in over a year! It's really not because I haven't had time. Honestly, if I have time to hang out on facebook, I should have time to sit a write a little old blog, right? No excuses... I'm just freakin lazy!

Looking back at my last few entries, I was a bit of a mess last year. I'll be honest. I'll probably always have "issues" but that's just who I am. I can say with confidence, though, that I am doing so much better than I was then. I'm still taking meds and don't see going off of them anytime soon. But truly, I am feeling really well. I am thinking more positively, I stay more calm, I am getting out more and actually enjoying it. That's not to say I don't have stress or anxiety in my life. I have LOTS of that. But I'm handling it much better than I have in the past.

So, in the last year, I have almost completely dropped myspace and twitter. I even had someone direct message me on twitter and ask me why I bothered to have an account. If you MUST know... it's because the novelty wore off and I don't feel like I have a lot to contribute. I do still love the friends I made there and I hope to keep in touch with them, if not on twitter, then on facebook. As for myspace... sorry. I just flat don't like it. Blah! I am a facebook junkie! Being here at home babysitting all the time, it's my social outlet. I love the games but I love even more that I can connect with so many people. I've connected with former co-workers from my WalMart days, extended family I hardly ever see and with former classmates that I haven't seen in YEARS. It's a blast!!

If I talk about EVERYTHING that has happened in the last year, this entry will get too long. So, let me just close it by saying "Thank you" to all of my friends and family who stuck by me through my "transformation" this year. One of my biggest thanks is to my sweet husband. We've had a crazy, emotional ride and we're closer than ever because of it. I love you, my sweet man... more than you know! And the biggest thanks of all to God. He made me who I am... craziness and all... and showed me that's it's okay to be ME.
