Hmmmmm

Soooooo

SOME people noticed my rather cryptic closing to my last blog post. . .sometimes I honestly forget that I am not NEARLY as clever as I hope to be. . .alas. . .;)


Yes, things are going well here, better, and there are just so many things that are going right, that it is a real shame that the whole health thing had to get in the way. . .

Yes, there is a wonderful new reason to be happy, hopeful and all around giddy. . .and if you really want to know you are going to have to e mail me, at my school address. . .and even then, I can't promise you a whole lot. . .BUT know that for the first time in a really REALLY long time. . .I am at peace and hopeful.

Thanks to you all for sticking with me in this- I could not have done a lot of this without you:)

Rock botton can only lead to mountain top. . .right?

Wow, a few months since my last post. . .not good. Would love to say that things here have been so overwhelmingly joyful and bliss filled that time just got away from me. . .but that would not be the case.

Health concerns have ruled the day- mainly mine. Sadly I have a condition that is not to be "taken lightly" and one that requires treatments that are draining me literally, and well, apparently I aint seen nothing yet. The good news? I am not gonna die from it. The bad, the treatments make me question if that is true or not. . .

Missing work, and missing everything else, trying to save all I can for the kids and for my dissertation proposal, just a few more things to add and it will be ready. One bright light in this drk under the umbrella existance.

Some posts that will follow will concern mainstreaming, middle school, Brownies, and the verdict from the legal issues of my Muffin. . .

Aint it the truth. . .
