As I set here drinking my coffee I can not help but think how things have lead up to where I am now in this last year. I moved from New York City to Denton Texas, and worked for CVS and for the State. I faced many challenges along the way. One being people talking about me behind my back. Sort of like my own private paparazzi. Now, I am no longer living in Denton TX but a smaller town called Seneca, South Carolina. Not only do I live in a smaller town but I live in the country part of the town. And this starts a new chapter in my blog....
I guess in order to talk about what is going on now, I need to discuss how it came to be that I am now living even more so in the country. While working for the State, I was having problems making my ends meet. I could pay my rent but not much else. Not to mention that I was truly unhappy and it felt like my life was literally falling apart. My mom could not help me, nor my sisters and I didn't have anyone else in my life that where in the position to help me, except for one. My friend that I met in New York City. The one that went and picked me up and drove me to Alabama.
Winston Churchill once said, "A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty. " I think Winston had a point because I have known some pessimistic people in my life and they would look at the difficulties in the opportunity of moving to a new state. When I realized I had an opportunity to get my life back in order, not only did I grab the bull by the horns so to speak, but I realized I was an optimist.
This is a time that I can work on getting myself out of debt because I will be helping out my roommate with his mom while he works and work when he was off. I have to admit though that I am having a hard time getting use to things. One of the hardest things to get use to is not having a car. So I can not go where I want to go, do what I want to do and so forth. Maybe sometime after the beginning of the year, I can get a car. I have already started working on making friends. Hopefully this year will be different than the last and I can meet more people. Either way, I plan on staying more on top of my life and this blog. Until next time...Be Safe and Blessed Be.
I wish you all the best Jennifer..hopefully I can get my life worked out too!! I'm adrift in a huge ocean without so much as an oar right now :( .
