I'm Home!
So I posted one blog on March 28th and just now getting around to posting again. I would really like to get to this more often but April, and this first part of May, have been crazy. I am not working at the moment but starting the job of my life on June 4th as an executive assistant. I worked my butt off in the early 90s getting a degree in interior design and found my way into the office world on accident. I haven't left the office world since and love it! I don't think my education was a waste...there were some great memories, life lessons, and a bit of growing up in those years.
So leaving Florida and my 2nd husband to start a new life is finally paying off. Doing this at age 42 has been more of a challenge than I anticipated, but you are never too old to find the life you want. It took me some time to be ok with not having the marriage, the house, the job, the kids, the pets and the rest that goes with a "normal" life. My two marriages didn't work out. So what. I have always been a late bloomer and will not be afraid to bloom now...late is better than never and I hope my kids take that lesson out of all this moving around. They have actually been great and tell me how proud they are of me. I thought that by leaving their father, and then leaving their step father of 11 years, who raised them from ages 2 and 6, that they would be a little weary of my so-called stability. But they have rolled with me and supported me and here I am in San Diego! I am finally home.
