The next steps

So, here I am, back again almost exactly 3 years later! I've rescued the blog from oblivion, and will use it to document this new way.

What is my new way? I have GIVEN NOTICE at my "day job", a move I've been considering for, oh, about 4 years now. I've been there for 5.5 years. It's such a "good" job! And yes. It's true.

But my life is different now, and I'm going to honor that. I'm going to be brave. Maybe a bit crazy, but that's part of bravery, after all!

My mission: to work for myself and my family. To be strong and brave and accountable. To have energy for the things I want to have energy for. To lose the guilt over distraction and outside interests. To work hard for things that matter to me. To be a more present mother, wife and friend. To "keep" my home. To celebrate my freedom. To honor my family. To further my community!

And so. There will be more posts. There will be musings. If you are a family member and you find this, please don't freak out! I need a place to post a few things and do a little writing that won't enter the family grapevine quite so quickly. So, here we are.

It's late, so, blessings to me and the world and this blog, and onward!!!!!!
