I haven't been blogging much because I just didn't really feel like I could really write about all the things going on for me. I haven't been doing much yoga and the truth is all I really have are excuses. The thing is, the life I've led for the last year has been such a Jerry Springer show (and, let me tell you, I tell that to people I catch up with and they all pshaw me at first... then they hear the actual story and they all say "that really IS Jerry Springer")... not only have I not wanted to blog about it but I didn't feel right to the people involved blogging about it.

I really need to view 2008 as over and done with and that 2009 is going to be a much different experience. It seems like a falsity to say "oh it's the new year, everything is going to be different now" because, realistically, we make our realities and it can be the "new year" whenever you decide it to be.

I'm sitting in my new house right now. I have a coffee table that I've always loved and dishes in the dishwasher. Last night for New Year's Eve, The Best Friend brought over his 3 little girls and my 2 offspring were here.. and we had a big slumber party. We made pasta and ice cream sundaes... we had arts and crafts and movies on the new Playstation 3 (meaning Blu-Ray animation). Everyone slept in sleeping bags in the bedrooms since there is no furniture yet. It was fun.

Now that the majority of my time is going to be here in San Diego again, I feel like I can get back to life. Getting back to life means moving forward for me in so many ways... so that's what I'm doing. TWBD and I have been separated for a year and a half or something and I haven't ever really done anything about moving on in life since during that time I've been in Seattle so much. It feels grounding to have a solid home. The kids seem solid and happy. I've got an awesome job at an awesome company. So it's just coincidence that I moved over the last couple days and the significance of the new year but it's great cause to be resolute.

Happy 2009. Here's to all of you and wishing you all peace, love and joy.
