My first posting for the new blog, how exciting.
Many things have happened recently, so much so that I'd like to share it here with all of you readers.
Let me start by giving you a little insight of how my regular days go. I have worked a total of five hours of overtime this week. I have tried to squeeze into my precious few evening hours remaining after work all of the activities, chores, duties, responsibilities, wants/desires, etc. Quite having to confess here at this time that this does wear me out, which is nearly impossible to do.
There are several things weighing heavily on my mind at this time. One is the reality that I have just recently broken up with my boyfriend after I had to force myself to make the decision, extremely unwillingly...as I did have feelings for him. The second is the harsh reality that it would probably be in the best interest of my two very intelligent and sweet dogs that I give them to a family who has more time to devote to them, as I am usually working and they are currently living in a small apartment with me. Next would be the heartache due to the fact that my kids still live back home, as I have only moved to this area during the past year, and I do not get to see them anymore. The holidays are coming up and I want to be with my kids...money to travel, decisions to make, etc.
However there are also great, tremendous and wonderful things happening in my life...which I will share in each individual posts coming. Just this week I have made a very critical decision in my life. This decision has unexpectedly given me the feeling of a weight being lifted...and I am not quite sure as to "why". After several years of being a "near-vegetarian", I have decided to go Vegan.
In the past month, I have purchased the long-awaited "Bass Guitar" that I have desired. I am practically in heaven. I've been wanting to learn to play. I've just felt as if it would feel almost natural to me, and I'm not surprised that it does. I enjoy it tremendously.
Just today...Friday, Oct. 8th; I have received 2 Recognitions of Achievement at my work. Funny, I never really admitted to myself that I was an over-achiever, but I guess now the word it out.
Over the past few months I began the large project called "The Back Piece". This was my idea to have my whole back tattooed. I have probably about 50% completed. My intentions are to have it fully completed by this years end. I have started with a small dragon to cover up a birthmark that I was never fond of. Next I added two large very colorful dragons in what will be intended to be a "fighting scene". I have also added a mythical looking/gothic castle. My next move will be to add in some type of a moon, some dark shadings about smoke and fog, possibly a streak of lightening and more to have the piece completed....as in, my whole back. After that I have chosen a few select dragons to be done somewhere else besides my back.
My next decision. I've always wanted a "sleeve". I know, I'm a girl. I have a start already. More on that later. For the future, more tattoos of course. In addition, I'd like to pick up on my writing again. I want to learn more songs and almost constantly think about playing my bass.
I'm excited. My life is not without stress or heartaches, but I will go into more detail about my present.
