jumping in...

Well, here I go. As someone who has come kicking and screaming into the technical age, this is unbelievable to me that I am doing this. My life has changed a lot over the past few years. I used to be a waitress/ actor and LOVED nothing more than being onstage. Slowly I began getting very anxious about forgetting lines and songs and I wasn't enjoying the limelight so much. Three years ago my husband and I were blessed with our first child (and at this time, our only child) Gabe, and I sort of stopped as an individual and started as a two person unit. It wasn't just me anymore... it was Gabe and me. Recently I found something that I had forgotten about for a long time. Writing. I LOVED writing and wanted to be a writer when I was a little girl. Then I wanted to be a million other things, and tried some of them out. I found myself over the past 10 years or so just wanting to know what it is I want to be when I grow up. I thought if I could just figure it out I could start working toward it. Well this summer I finally figured it out. I want to write, and for the first time in many years I feel like I am doing something just for myself. Now I am on my journey to get my first book published and that is what this blog is all about. The righting aspect of the blog is my many desires to get things right. Raise my son right first and foremost. Eat Right. Keep the house neat (or right). Say the right thing, do the right thing.... oh the list goes on... I am a very flawed perfectionist, with a little bit of OCD. Here is to the start of another new endeavor. Cheers.
