A new blog

Well, here is a new blog. I had a blog a year ago, haven't written in it so finally deleted it and decided to set up a whole new one. My life has changed quite a bit since a year ago. I used to live in the middle of the state and on March 1, 2005 moved to the west side of the state to rent a house on the water. I moved into the house that was across the street from my boyfriend. We had been dating since July, 2004. I was nervous about living that close to him and the day I moved, as soon as we were done and went out to dinner with some friends, he asked me to marry him. Fast forward to September, 2005, we got married on the 10th. We took our honeymoon in November, Thanksgiving Weekend. Bought the house I rented, across the street from the place he had rented. Had Christmas as a family, went through a miscarriage in February and moving ahead now.

I'm happier than I've ever been in my life. I met a man that loves me entirely. He makes me love him more ever day. He gives me all the love in the world. If I sound as if I live in a make believe life, I really don't. With a new marriage, came a new life. I became the step-mother to a tween. My step-daughter is 12. She thinks her world sucks beyond belief. She has a mother, father and step-mother that just don't understand. We are mean and don't allow her to have the freedom she wants. Sounds like she has a pretty typical life to me but then again, I'm the step-mother and don't know anything.

I have with this family, 2 dogs, 1 indoor cat, 1 bird, and 5 outdoor cats. We have a pontoon boat that my husband built and of course the house on the water. We are 10 minutes to the Gulf and have a great life. Again, I'm happier than I ever thought I could be.

Perhaps this time I'll keep up with a blog. We shall see. I have been a lurker to other blogs, I have some I read religiously. I know my blog won't get to that kind of status but that's alright. I'm able to sit here on my laptop and type. I just want to get some thoughts out of my head on occassion, vent about being the dreaded step-monster, perhaps after this miscarriage, I'll get pregnant and can talk about that.


Until next time, have a good day, whatever day this is.
