Finding my way back home............

I haven't posted in a very long time.

2014 nearly broke me.  Nearly............... but it didn't succeed.

It has been a year now since I have been gone from my old workplace.

NOW I AM WISER AND HAVE LEARN'T SOME LIFE LESSONS THAT I AM VERY THANKFUL FOR

My children are a mental, loud, boistrous delight.  We have our moments, like all families, but we all have a crazy, fun time.

My relationship with Greg grows stronger all the time.  We have had it quite tough - twins, disabled children, step-parenting, teens...........LIFE!!  We too have our moments LOL, but we keep it real have a laugh through it all - good times and bad.  He is a great, supportive, loving partner.  I am really very lucky.  We are a great team!

We don't put on any fake front for anyone - what you see is what you get all day, every day.

I have been super lucky to have been given the opportunity to completely change careers to something that I absolutely LOVE.  I am now a Librarian/Customer Service Officer.  I have to say, it is a great job, part-time and a good salary.  I work with lovely people - they are all really nice, good people.  I am so happy!  Hey where else do you get to see all the new great books, DVD's and CD's in all genre's, borrow them for FREE, work in the centre of a really progressive shopping mall and get to meet a bunch of lovely customers every day?

Not to mention....

Living the dream, eh.  HAHA  If you had told me that 12 months ago I would have told you to keep dreaming.

Financially, the goal posts have changed a little bit.  I'm not earning the salary of a full time person and I am not on the hourly rate I was previously.  But, because our quality of life is so much better, it's no sacrifice.  We are going along really well and have some good plans for the future (whilst recognising these could change at any time - lessons learned!!!)

So, my plan is to try and update this blog at least once a week with all our goings on.  The record of what has been going on in our life is an important one for the us to look back on.  I'm feeling very positive about everything now and really looking forward to the future.

Bring it on!

Love
Rach
