So many thoughts and not possible to share it all

I have had the most amazing and yet the most stressful month in May.

My beautiful niece NE began her finl senior year events with the National Charity League Senior Presentation. It was a beatufiful evening and I will admit I teared up with the first young lady they presented just thinking wow my little NE is going on to the next chapter of life.

Then a few days later I went back up to PD to see her walk at graduation. It was a blast!!! I was able to meet my oldest nieces bf who is a very nice young man. I stayed at the Indian Wells Resort and it was super nice kind of spoiled myself.

Work life has been hectic to say the least but I am grateful I have a job.

I also heard from an old friend Texas this past week. We met a while back I think back in November of 2009. He is a super neat guy. He was laid off the job that had him come here every month and we kept in touch via occassional email - he helps me out with HSE stuff. It was great to see him this week - he looks incredibly great and is as helpful as always.

I am supposed to leave on a cruise in 27 days and just have conflicting information about wether or not I need a tourist visa to go on a cruise to Alaska. The canadian consulate website it says I need one and the same website on another page says I do not need one because I have a green card. So I think next week in the middle of my craziness i will need to figure out how to get to LA to apply for a tourist vias and pray I get it before I leave on my cruise.

I will admit I have a bit of anxiety and blues going on because of some things going on that I can't share at this time. I will say this I am just trying to be positive and be optimistic. With that said I also wonder if I need to make better choices and worry about number one - me.

I know it's been a while

So much has been happening and as I experience life events or see or think of things as I am driving but somehow I just don't make it to my notebook to blog when I get home.

So all I have to say is I will blog when I get home tonight as it is bothering me that I have not blogged.

Life's a Dance

I am feeling like it is a crazy time for me in life.

I returned to work this week and I am super exhausted tonight.

This week I realized that back in October 2010 I went to TX to see about moving there and visit my friends. When I returned is when the opportunity to move San Diego was presented to me. This was a better option than moving to AZ, TX or UT.

Why? Well my niece NE was not done with high school and she made me promise I would be around until she graduated and then I could go anywhere. NE is now graduating in two weeks - time has flown. I am so proud of her and I am excited for her new chapter in life at Emory. I will miss her but I know this is our new chapter in life.

On other news I went to the temple today with some friends and it just gave me so much joy to be there with friends that I am so grateful for and cherish a lot.
