Catching Up

Where have I been? I did not realize it has been about two weeks since my last posting. I have been a busy women. For me that is a good thing. I finally had my first Signature HomeStyles Show last weekend! I have been spending alot of time getting ready, I had videos to watch, mannuals to read and getting questions answered. I just wanted to know as much as possible about all the products and the company. I got so much information my brain was on overload. With my head full of product knowledge and a feeling of excitement I took off for MN last Friday afternoon to Joan's house. Being the great friend that she is she became my first hostess on Saturday afternoon. Everything went really well and I know this is going to be a good way for me to get out and meet people. I spent the rest of the weekend in Glencoe. Sunday was Super Bowl Sunday and I had decided that I was not coming back until Monday. The game was fun to watch and it was nice not to watch it alone. I did pay the price though as my fears of traveling to MN in Feb came true. Monday the weather was crabby! The roads were certainly not the worse I have ever driven on but it was a long ride and I was very glad to see my place.

I am, like almost everyone I know, waiting very patiently (Not! it really cannot get here soon enough) for spring to come! I still have not decided if I am going to look for a different place to live before summer gets here. There are the pros and the cons. The thought of moving makes me think no I should just stay right where I am, but I really miss having outdoor space. What to do, what to do. I really like the space I have here and the location is great for me. Enough of that because when I start thinking about my living space I think about the house I left and I just don't need to go there.

Tuesday nights are spent at my support group. We are reading a book that I probably should have read a year ago but maybe I would not have been receptive to it. The scary thing about it is that I could put my name in the place of the names used in the book. I am beginning to realize that there is a light at the end of this deep dark tunnel I have been living in. I listen to some of those in my group and wonder if I ever sounded like them and I realize I most likely did. I have learned there are a lot of sad stories out there. The best thing is that I am starting to feel like I have a life to live again and that I do have a future. What it is I do not have any idea but it feels so good to at least be able to look towards it. That is not to say I do not have my bad days because I do and that is not to say that I do not miss him because I do but I am learning to accept the way things are.
