Speeding along in life as a freeway...

My life is speeding along in many new directions. There are rapid changes that is happening in my life! First, I have a new house under construction that is almost complete. After initial dread about moving into the new house, I am now excited. The house looks a lot better than I envisioned. Also, I have been through 5 floods in my life. This house will not flood. It will be a smaller house than the one I was living in, but everything will be brand new and it is all the space I really need. Only a great flood of biblical proportions will reach this home!

Also, I have successfully completed my grieving process over the Ex. I have been holding off dating anyone out of respect for the relationship that was, but now I am ready to navigate through the jungle and look for a soulmate. I needed time to answer all the pertinent questions of:

Is this really what I want? Am I sure? What is it that I am really looking for?

And last but not least, I just recently accepted a new position in the company that is going to lift me out of poverty. YES! THANKS BE TO GOD! I will work longer hours, but the paycheck will be a lot fatter. Happy times are here again! I'll feel like Scarlett O'Hara... "As God is my witness, I'll never be hungry again." I am very excited about the new job. It'll drastically help me not be so UPSIDE DOWN (as my Dad puts it). Now, I just have to work on a budget and a plan... and tomorrow will hold good things for me.

Congrats on all the new directions in your life, but don't let the new job keep you from blogging as often or I will have to have a chat with your higher ups... tee hee

Hey, with me having that interior designer built into me, I would love to see some pics of that house, even in the construction stage? POST SOME!

Haha, I'm sure you'll be hungry again, but you'll probably just be doing it to achieve some sort of ridiculous level of being cut. :P Congratulations nonetheless.

This all sounds like good news! I'm assuming that you've put your thoughts of working on a off-shore rig on hold?
