Directionally Challenged...

It has been nearly 3 years since I have updated the blog and I have no idea where to start. 


So much has happened in the past 3 years. So much has changed me. So much has disappointed me. So much has hurt me. 

Perhaps I will start with a quick recap...

 
2013 - I bought my first house. I love it. It is perfect! 
           My relationship appeared to be solid.
           The circumstances surrounding my job probably improved, but not significantly. 
           My brother, who had previously been diagnosed with Hodgkins Lymphoma, was in remission after several rounds of chemotherapy. 
           I honestly felt that 2013 was my best year to date.

2014 - A new relationship was formed when my boyfriend brought his college aged daughter to live in my home. Even though this decision was against my better judgement, I still managed to open my heart and home to her. As I grew closer to her, my relationship with him began to deteriorate. 
          My job took a turn for the worse with new operations managers and dispatchers. I literally was making about half of what I had been making the year before. 
          With conflict both at work and at home, I felt life beginning to overwhelm me in a negative way.

2015 - I lost my brother in February. He died one day after his 46th birthday. 

And I must stop there....

For those of you who have been wondering about me, I am here. I am fine. I have so much to say. But I guess I'm not quite ready to expose the rest of my dirty laundry, so to speak. I'm sure it might be posted eventually. My apologies if you are here for the tall tales, but for now, I feel like my blog will serve better purpose as a place for me to vent. I really need to vent!
