introduction
My name is Terri , sorry it took me so long to post something here. I wasn't really sure how to get started. I am basically starting a whole new life. My father passed away two and a half years ago and things have been kind of crazy every since. I went into protection mode of my mother who needed and still needs a lot of support. In the process of deciding to move to another state to help my mother I also decided it was time to divorce my husband of 9 years. I made this decision with the full support of my family. If it was up to them I never would have married him but that story it for another blog. So in moving to a new state only knowing my mother I have started a new life and met a lot of wonderful people in the past year and a half. I also started school in May 2009 to finally make the career change I have been thinking about for years. My mother has a form of dementia which can come from depression so we are dealing with those issues as well. It is a lot to juggle sometimes and can be very overwhelming. I am lucky to have met a wonderful man who is very supportive. Even though it is a good thing he takes up a lot of time in between my other things. I thank God that I have him in my life some good in the middle of all the craziness.

Hi, Terri. It was kind of difficult to submit my first post. I wasn't sure whether or not it would be looked upon favorably. However, I realized that I'm going to approach my blog in the way that I want to. I have to be satisfied with what I put into it. I realize that I started this blog because of College Comp II, but I want the blog to be somewhat representative of who and what I am. Anyway, I'm sorry, I'm typing about myself instead of talking about your blog. Terri, you have obviously been through changes as well as difficult times and I just want to wish you the best. Just stay positive and live life with great appreciation for what you have. Take care, Terri, may GOD bless you and your family. Good luck with class as well as your blog.
ReplyDeleteDennis, thank you for your kind and encouraging words. I try and stay positive for the most part some days just get to you more than others. You should put your true self into your blog. I wasn't thrilled with the idea of a blog at first but it is a good way to get your thoughts out there and maybe even connect with new people. Good luck to you as well in class and on your blog.
ReplyDeleteBless you for helping your mom, you've taken some big steps. You are a much braver woman than i am, i don't think i could ever move again, or leave oklahoma. Even though i am really tired of winter, if i had a choice and endless amounts of money i would move where it is warm yearly.
