Oh, life.

I had such great intentions when I finally got the courage to write in this little blog. I knew I wouldn't be an every-day-gal, but definitely three or so times a week. And then life happened. I find myself so busy that I don't have time to read my favorite blogs let alone write. I also still have a hard time deciding how open I'd like to be. How much I'd like for anyone and everyone to know. While I'm young, times have definitely changed. I come from the days of Livejournal where you had a close circle of friends you shared with those who you trust. Not the world. I mean, not just everyone can know my deepest thoughts, ya know. Finding that happy medium has been hard for me.

But here I am! Once again. Let's see. Where do I start? Well, I was offered a different position at the school I work at. So I am now driving around every which way to recruit people. It's definitely a lot different than what I'm used to. But it's always fun to change things up. I'm learning how to succeed at this new job. It's challenging which is always a plus. Keeps me on my toes.

I got a puppy, Kingston. I love him to death, but with this new position, I'm home less and less. I feel absolutely terrible that I took this puppy in and now don't have the time for him. I love him to pieces. Just today I spoke to a close friend who is in a need a furry baby (her family's was stolen not too long ago). Her son would just adore Kingston as would my friend and her husband. While it absolutely devastates me and breaks my heart to not be Kingston's dog-mama, I know he will be in good hands and deserves a family with a large yard. Besides, I'm sure we can still be close friends. :)

Most recently I decided it was time to let go of a certain person in my life (an ex that I still continue to speak to - I know, I know). He had come back home unexpectedly, and we met up. We had both decided a while back that in a perfect world where we weren't literally on opposite sides of the country, we would be together. But it just can't be. After seeing him on his trip home, I decided I still had feelings and couldn't shake them. Also, knowing he's attempting to "move on" with his life and date, I just couldn't take it. I decided that as much as I'd love to be able to be friends, it's impossible for me. Especially with mixed signals from him. So for the first time ever I stepped up and put my foot down. I don't expect it to be forever, but I have to learn how to let go and move on.

Aaaand that about wraps up my life. Well, kind of. But I really should stop here. Until next time. :)
