It's Been a While

(And to add insult to injury, this is my second attempt at writing this entry. I'm sure the first attempt was better, but what can I do?)

I knew that it's been a while since I've posted an entry on this site--I just didn't realize just how long it's been. And, while I haven't been posting here, I have been blabbing a lot on my other site.

What have I been blabbing about?

Well, I'll try to bring you up to speed with the short story of my life.

The family--The immediate family, those of us located in the Midwest, are doing well. My step-father; however, has been in the hospital for the last three weeks. He had some kind of growth in his stomach and was unable to keep anything down. He's had surgery and is doing better. My Mom; however, is not doing so well. I'm not sure if it's the stress or what, but it's definitly a long story for another day.

The soccer--I've come to accept the fact that I have become the proverbial Soccer Mom. I accept that fact as I schlepp the YS from game to game week in and week out. He began playing indoor soccer when the fall season ended. And I realized that there are only two months out of the year in which soccer does not consume my life. I'm not complaining, I'm just calling it like I see it.

The job--I accepted a new job in a different career field. I now get to focus on my favorite aspect of my old job. I absolutely love my new job. There's a lot to do, but I really enjoy doing it. I can't believe they actually pay me to have that much fun every day. I have a lot to learn, of course, but I think I will enjoy that aspect of it too. Finally, I am what I want to be when I grow up. I know, it's about time! =)

The hobby--Oh yeah, I've been knitting like a fiend. And I've been posting entries to my hobby site. The knitting really provides a release for when I'm tired and stressed out. And the knitting serves as constant fodder for the site. It really makes posting a no brainer for the most part.

This site--Will I continue posting to this site? I don't know. It really doesn't make sense to have two blogs. It's not very realistic as I have a hard enough time posting to one site. It's next to impossible to expect me to post to two; however, I have toyed with the idea of combining the two sites into one. I'll keep you posted on that idea.

And with that, I'm out of here for the night.

P.S. I've missed you guys. You find that hard to believe? Believe it!! I've been lurking around your site and will continue to do so as much as I can.

Believe it!
