Checking In
I have been neglecting this blog again, though at least it hasn't been that long of an absence this time. And contrary to what you might think, I haven't been avoiding posting here because I have nothing to write about. Quite the opposite, actually.... you see, there has been SO MUCH going on in my life for the last 9 months that I hardly know where to begin. Ups, downs, diagonals - every day and week and month of my life. Sometime all in the same day, sometimes in the same damn hour. I shall endeavor to do better going forward, and as I have the time and the confidence to write about my life, I promise I will slowly but surely get the blog-o-sphere up to date on everything that has happened/is happening/will happen in my life. Fair?

New Home
It's been almost 2 weeks now since I've moved into my apartment, and I have to say that I am really enjoying it here.
The last time I lived on my own, the Twin Towers were still standing, and you could still take pocket knives and lighters onto airplanes.
It's so much different being on my own... I forgot what it's like to experience real, honest solitude. It's so much different than the lives I've lived for the last twelve and a half years. I have experienced peace, quiet, a little bit of loneliness, but mostly gratitude. I am grateful that I have the means to live on my own and support myself. I am grateful that I have found a wonderful place to live, and I'm very much looking forward to having my girls over here for the first time. That will effectively end the peace and solitude, but in the most wonderful way. I'm not quite ready to house them yet, but by next weekend I will be prepared to have my girls over here and to make them comfortable and safe.

Moving On, Moving Out
Just a quick note.
I know it's been forever and a day since I've posted anything on this blog. What can I say? A lot of things happened in 2014. A lot.
The biggest and most glaring thing that happened in the past year is that my husband and I have separated. We are no longer compatible with each other, and I am moving on from this to get on with my life and be the person that I want to be, in the way I want to be it.
Today is the start of moving day for me. I have found a nice 2-bedroom apartment within 15-20 minutes of this (Steve's) house. I will sign my lease this afternoon, and will be living there on my own half of the time. The other half of the time the girls will be staying with me, as Steven and I have agreed to share custody of our children 50/50.
I suppose there are a lot of thinge to be said on this matter, but I have neither the time nor the energy to say them now.
I'll be back when I acquire a computer and internet access in my new home.
