It’s been almost a year since I last updated. When I first started this blog, it was a last resort. I was stuck in a bad frame of mind and I didn’t know how to get out of it. I wanted to connect with others dealing with the same problems. I haven’t gotten very many responses but I’ve decided I don’t care. I’m going to update whether or not people are reading. I may not be as faithful as I’d like, but I will try.
In the time since I last updated, there have been some major changes in my life. I have been extremely active with community theatre and improv. Currently, I am rehearsing for gypsy the musical and the assistant director of an improv comedy crew. I have also been working with the American Lung Association. I was on the board for the Fight for Air Run/Walk Jacksonville. I’m excited to report that we meant our fundraising goal! I was also the Christmas Seals spokesperson. That was really fun! I got to do interviews and appearances. I love knowing I’ve made an impact on the people I’ve talked to.
The main source of my new more positive attitude has been my wonderful boyfriend. He really is the most amazing man I could have ever dreamed of. We met during a show. He played my love interest. By the end of the show, we weren’t acting anymore. I wasn’t looking for a boyfriend. I was working on myself. It just happened. I couldn’t stop it. We’ve been together for almost 8 months now and I look forward to every new day with him. I know we are young but he gets me like no one else does. He loves me for me, including my issues. I didn’t think anyone would ever accept and embrace my health issues the way he does. He amazes me everyday. <3
I’m not really sure what else to say right now. There is so much that happened since my last post that I’m not really sure where to begin. I’ve been healthier than I was. Stayed out of the hospital, for the most part. & I’ve been living a pretty full life.
Do I still have my health issues? Yes.
Do I still have my bad days? Yes.
Do I let it stop me from living my life? Absolutely not.
Hope to hear from anyone reading this. I’ll update again soon. xo
