Hmmm...well, it's been a while since I was last here--years actually. I went through a phase of blogging about everything, then moved on to "hot topics in society," and eventually became bored and too busy to blog much. Soon, my username and password were forgotten and the only blogging that has occured since are randoms bits on our myspace account.
Lately, I've had a strong desire to vent about all that is going on in life. With one tween, one kindergartener, one on the way, a "retired" (see side note below) Marine Corps husband (and stepdad to the first two), there really is a lot to vent at times. Sometimes it's how great life is and other times it's about the irony of a perfect life. Considering there is no such thing as a perfect life--perhaps a good life with many struggles to overcome--I have decided our lives are as good as we make them (with more of God's help than our own, of course).
**"Retired" as in he was medically discharged and is only 24, but will be a Marine at heart for the rest of his life. Those of you who are married to military, have family or friends that are or were in the military, I'm sure you completely understand. "Ex-Marine" depicts someone who no longer wants the title of Marine and that is just not him.**
Making my way back to Blogger is mainly due to privacy--is that enough irony for you? Privacy on an internet blogging site, right? Hah! Anyhow, we have many friends and family on our myspace and I've decided that though the happy times blogs are appropriate for all, some of the not-so-happy-times blogs may not be. And, most definitely the truth-hurts blogs are not for all to read.
So, here I am...again. Writing for myself and perfect strangers, allowing true emotions to come forth without hindrance due to who may or may not be reading...
