Hey Everyone,

Just doing some quick journaling for the day.

Had a great night last night playing poker with a group of friends I haven't seen in a while... probably stayed out a bit too late, as I'm positively exhausted today, but it was certainly worth it! We made plans to make it at least a monthly get together, so that should be good.

This weekend, there's not much on tap... A good friend of mine is having a birthday party on Friday night, but that is also my Brother and Sister-in-law's 10 year anniversary, so they asked me to watch my niece that night so they could go out... So I'll be babysitting on Friday night, but that's just fine, as I LOVE hanging out with my adorable little niece.

Other than that, there's not much new to report... except this.

I've decided it's probably about time for me to sit down and take a serious inventory of where I am today... I know I've mad a lot of progress, done a good job of quite a few things, and I've made some mistakes and missteps... especially recently (I'm sure much to the annoyance of the people here, who've been so great through this process...).

I've spent most of my time living in the "now" recently, trying not to get too far ahead of myself or look back, and while that's a good thing, I think it's time for me to really evaluate where I am now and re-set some goals and plans for the future... both far and near.

So I may spend a few days away from this board... so don't be alarmed smile

As always, I am so grateful to each and every one of you for reading and commenting... for helping me through these rough times... and I'm sorry if sometimes I frustrate the living #ell out of you by being wishy-washy, whiney, or not following advice... But I'm so thankful you stick around and bring the 2x4s when they're needed and the kind words when they're all that float me through a day...
