2012 and I am Fifty! That can't be right.............
So, here I am again after a long absence. A few things have changed, I am now going to school and getting my credentials as a Medical Billing Coder. Still being a Nanny in the meantime to help make ends meet. My daughter is attending ARTEC and learning about all the behind the scenes stuff that goes into making movies. ARTEC is a non-profit and for $25 a year it's a great opportunity and better than a 4 year degree in the arts. She has been offered paid work now, so now when the opportunity arises, she will be able to do that. So excited for her. I am so proud of her. If her Dad would be here, he would be thrilled. Speaking of my late husband, it is going to be 6 years on August 13th that he was murdered. I wish I could be the grieving widow that I was a week after he died, but I can't. All the betrayal that I discovered after he died just killed the love that I felt for him. I still feel smidgets here and there of what I used to feel, but it is more an emotional memory than a current feeling. I still wished we had divorced and he was still alive. That Viv had a father around, but for whatever reason, things happened how they have happened and here we are living and surviving without him. I have finally settled down with a great man and Viv is crazy about him. I say settled down in the sense that we have been together almost three years and I have no plans to date anyone else. He's the one, just waiting on him deciding that I am the one too. I am losing weight and finally going to take off the extra lbs. Goal weight is 125 and I hope to get there by the end of January 2013. Something tells me that 2013 is going to be a huge year for us. Well here's hoping that it will be a great year.

One year older and trying to have a life
I am still a Nanny thru Care.com and I have now two rooms on Airbnb.com http://www.airbnb.com/rooms/52786 and http://www.airbnb.com/rooms/37512. I have started posting my art on http://www.artbreak.com/islandgirl1971. I am doing everything that I can to survive and get beyond survival. I need to give me and my daughter a life and to make certain that we keep what we have now. Our home is the main thing. So, far so good. Here's hoping that everything will be alright and we end up in a better place in the near future.

LEARNING TO FLY: Normalcy at last or something like it

Normalcy at last or something like it
I am having quite a ride this year. Normalcy has been some what achieved for my daughter and myself. It has taken alot of work. I have been laid off since late June of this year and there is slim pickings for what I need.
The wonderful guy I wrote about here on my last post is long gone. He wasn't so wonderful. I have someone new under new terms and him and I enjoy each other and he respects me. I could easily fall for him and be over the moon about him. But, can't do that. Things are different this time around and I have to keep my heart safe this time.
I am doing my AA in Web Design. My daughter is back in regular high school. I have things floating along as best I can, but we are struggling. But God is watching.
I am friends with the guy I will always love. Working on something right now and it just needs settling down. Him and I will always be friends. Two people I would die for, it is this friend and my daughter.
I am healthy. My daughter has a cold, but she is healthy otherwise.
Life is good.

New wonderful man
I have a new wonderful man. I have been dating him for three weeks now and he is pretty great. I could easily see this going somewhere. I hope that it does because I hate dating. I don't like the whole process and it leaves you feeling pretty messed up after a while.
On the job front, I got laid off, like many of you out there. The two wonderful girls that I was a Nanny to, have moved on to Daycare and Preschool, as they are very bright and they, according to their Dad, will do better, around kids their age. I love them and miss them dearly, but that is the nature of a Nanny job.
I hope that you all are doing well and that life is being kind.

I found a new wonderful man - He makes me laugh a lot
I have found this really wonderful guy and we are going steady. I don't think people really say that anymore. We are exclusively dating each other. He makes me feel happy. He makes me laugh a lot too. I hadn't realized just how much I hadn't been laughing till I met him. He is really sweet and kind. Even his son is wonderful.
On the flip side, I lost my job. The girls I cared for as a Nanny are moving on to Daycare/Preschool. So, I am now pursuing employment again.
My soulmate got engaged and now that chapter in my life is over. At least I got to be with him for a little while.
The good news is the new wonderful guy I was just talking about. Who knows? Maybe he could end up being the last guy I will ever need to date.
Ok, must try and sleep. I am really restless tonight. That darn moon is still too full out there.
