I cannot believe it has been so long since posting on this
blog. My sole purpose of initially starting this project was to record
wonderful recipes of foods I have cooked or books that I have read. I have a
tendency to be enthralled in a good story to whereas I stay up through the
night to read only to sadly forget it’s storyline or the enjoyment I received
from it. On vacation this summer I was discussing books with my aunt and couldn’t
remember reading a book that I apparently raved about on facebook. It was then
I decided to start writing here again.
The past year I have spent chasing unfulfilled childhood
dreams and trying to insert myself into a world I didn’t fit into. It took me
sustaining a broken arm, several false friends and blowing A TON (like a year
or two’s worth of college tuition TON)
to realize the saying “It’s never too late to follow your dreams” is not only
false but often irresponsible too. Just because YOU CAN.. doesn’t mean it’s a good
idea.
Which leads me back to why I am here. I am no longer looking
elsewhere for a definition of “who I am” or “where I belong” but rather knowing I am
already proudly doing it. I have a wonderful life denied to many. I am fortunate to be able to be “just a mom” with
a physically able body, a mind that loves to explore, hands that can create, a beautiful home and
a husband that still loves me even after all these years. I seek nothing but ways to improve what I have
already been blessed with. Cheers!! It’s good to
be back :)
