My life these days!

So I was looking around my blog and realizing that I haven't really updated about my life lately... it's not much, but I used to update my progress as far as healing from my divorce went. Now that I'm in a place where I don't think about it everyday, and I'm truly happy and content with everything that I did and chose, I don't feel like I have a lot to write about, but I will try!

As far as me goes, I am great. I feel like even though the years with Will will always be a part of who I am, and a part of my life, it no longer makes me who I am. It helped to define me and get me to where I am, but my life is mine now. I don't think about him, or that time as much as I used to. I've truly moved on, and although a divorce is something that takes a lot of time to heal from, I feel like I'm pretty much healed. Anything left over will just go away throughout the years. It's an amazing feeling to look back on my life a year ago and realize just how grateful I am to have survived and come out still positive. It's a shock to even me how instead of feeling like I never want to date, or get married again, but I still actually dream about it everyday! I cannot wait for that dream to come true, and I know when it does, it'll have been worth every tear and every ounce of patience I have put into it.

My life generally revolves around my job. As previously mentioned, I work at the Apple Store in the Gateway Mall as an iPhone Expert. It's one of the best jobs I've ever had. I love working there and I've made some amazing friends at work. Not only is it fun, but it's so rewarding. I'm actually good at my job and it makes me feel so good when I can help make someone's iPhone experience that much more enjoyable. Although its a lot to learn, it's worth it. I'm now so grateful to have worked for Qwest, Verizon Wireless, RadioShack (sold Sprint and Verizon), and Cricket in the past. My knowledge and experience in the wireless industry helps me to succeed every single day in my job. I don't think I've ever felt how rewarding it can be to actually feel like all those insignificant jobs I hated have come to be the most useful tools I could have asked for!

Although dating is still a rough spot, I have gone on a couple dates in the last couple months. Nothing big or great, but something is nice. I'm glad to finally feel even the want to date!

Me and my friend Andrea have been busy working on getting our business going. We are going to open a daycare. It's been my dream for years and now I'm finally working on doing it! I'm so glad I have someone who wants to do it with me because I don't think I could do it alone. It's a lot of work, but if we can actually succeed, I will be ecstatic! I love children, and I've always loved every daycare job I've had. I have been planning over the past 2 years or so to open a very nice low income daycare. It's definitely going to be one of the biggest challenges ever, but also the most rewarding. (30 pages of laws and policies from the state is a lot to learn before even considering it!) Because Andrea is getting married in March, we will probably be looking to open it sometime around the end of Spring, early summer of next year!

Anyways, that's my life these days. Nothing big, but definitely happy!
