It has been a while since I have written anything but more things have going on than I could possibly catch up on. Lets just say i am now living in St Paul after some world travels.
We have a screened in porch facing street side to our adorable little street. This morning as I "job search" I listen to kids run south towards school. Their ungraceful backpack-run reminds me of my childhood, running down School Street to avoid another tardy.
This morning I feel a little envious of these kids. I can faintly recall what it feels like to not have a care in the world. These kids don't even have to pick out their own clothes as they all match in their uniforms. I am not complaining, it was only a few months ago I got to re-experience this life in sunny California...but now its back to the present. The present where insane bills come out of nowhere, where every reliance on a company later requires a phone call to fix things, where cars break down and where I have to buy my own food and bedding.
Yesterday marked a near mental breakdown but now its over. I can so do this. I have done it before. And as my mother always says, "Somehow you always manage to get by." Thanks Mom, today that is exactly what I needed to hear.
