Another month has gone by since I updated this blog. 2009 is going by so fast.
Bring on the May flowers!! Though this week it seems like there are a lot of May showers... :/

Life is flowing along, been pretty busy.

Work is good. 3 weeks without our star MHC has been going better than expected. She does so much and we've been able to split the jobs and get them done- thank God! It truly is God watching out for us.

I have come to realize that I have a very limited social life right now. I've been compensating by throwing myself into my hobbies. Oh, and I joined the gym- which I thought I'd never do, but decided that exercise (whether i want to do it or not) has such great benefits to my emotional and physical health.

Back to my social life- it's been hard, since I am often content being by myself, but really crave the company of other people. I have difficulty initiating things, and that there is a problem. Maybe it's because of all the losses I suffered in the past. Fear of rejection. Indecision. My low self-confidence...Who knows. The extent of my "social" life right now mainly revolves around work life, and the two ACTS retreat teams I'm on - which I love, but have slowly taken over my life. I hope I'm not in over my head. I'm trusting God knows what he's doing with me here.

Living at home has it's advantages and disadvantages. Sure, I'm saving money, and have a roof over my head, and food on the table. And I have some freedom. But sometimes I just wish this transition to full blown adulthood didn't have to be so difficult. Sometimes I feel treated like an adult, and other times reverted back to being a child. It's frustrating. I do love and appreciate my mother and everything she does for us, but sometimes I'm anxious to move on and move out...

Okay, I have to go get ready for work. Just wanted to get in an update.
