Coming out from the fog

I always struggle with what to name the subjects of these posts, but more so I also will often think to write and don't because I get tired of feeling like I am complaining.  I have even considered deleting the blog all together.  And yet today, I opted to write--regardless of who is reading (or not). In hopes of reconnecting with the part of myself that was an avid reader and writer.

Since February vacation (one month ago), I have read (listened) to 4 books...books that were for me--not for a class or anything else.  This is beyond the reading I do for work related things.  And I have loved it.  I can't wait for the next book in the series to be released (no idea when that will be) and am totally open to recommendations for more.

I know part of this upswing is due to some of the major changes I have implemented recently to put life back on track and returning to me.

I have learned so much through this most recent chapter; lessons I don't know I could have truly appreciated any other way.

Sometimes "unconditional love" has conditions
Never compromise your values for someone else
Doing what is right is not always what is easy
True friends really are the ones you can call at 2am (or 11:45pm in this instance)

I am beyond blessed to have the people in my life that I do...I have a village who give more to me than I can ever express--and I can only hope I give back to in kind.

There are more that are currently harder to articulate, but may come out in time.  Excited to move into my house on the lake next weekend--this one is for good.
