Once more, with feeling.

Yes I know you have heard it before.

But I keep coming back.

In the brief post I did back in 2012 on the exile blog, I mentioned things that had been going on here in my world. None of these things have changed.

Keith is still sick.
Kids are growing like...well..kids.
I am still working at a job I hate, but it pays the bills.

You know, life stuff. Real stuff.

But I have learned things as I travel on this really wacky journey that I am on.

I have learned that there are good people who do good things. There are some bad people who do bad things as well, but I have been lucky those have been few and far between.

I have learned I am not the girl I used to be. That is fine. Better than fine. I am done being an emotional punching bag.

I have learned that I like me. Truly. Honestly.

I have made changes in my life, some good, some seemed good at the time. But all were my choices.

I am blessed enough to have good solid people in my life, who support me. I have a husband who has my back and children who I am learning to love as "grown-ups".

I also have a friend. Who I call Buldog. Who has my back and backs my plays, no matter how silly they may be.

And..there is Prometheus.

Prometheus is a 13 week old Lab/Greyhound/Akita mix, who wormed his way into my heart and into our home. Just like having a baby. Without the labour. Or weight gain...

SO yes.

I am back.

Not sure how often I will be back, but I am trying to bring back the things that give me joy in my life, and this was always one of them. I can't promise Shakespeare, but you will get honesty.

And cats.
And puppies.

And maybe a confession or two.
