Alright so it’s been a minute since my last blog or even post on here honestly and that is half-intentional and half because I just didn’t feel as though my life had anything of any real substance to share with anyone. This past summer has been both interesting in a lot of ways and also a slow moving kind of traffic jam where I’ve felt like the headway I thought I’d be making at this point has slowly deflated over the past few weeks…

It started out great though!

Having met a new guy at the start of May and moving in with him the beginning of July, everything seemed to be moving in the right direction

Until…

The money I thought I’d be receiving for a publishing didn’t come through and then I broke my foot right when I was beginning to learn to drive again

So in essence I feel trapped once more and I’m figuring out how to move forward from this new obstacle. The sunny side is all one can really gravitate to because I do have so many fortunate things in my life not the least being this beautiful guy who has been nothing less than supportive through it all even with his own issues.
