Well, it's been 3 years since my last post. A lot has changed, a lot remains the same.
Home: I still live with my parents. Kennedy has grown to the ripe old age of 4.5, and starts Pre-K this fall.
Car: I traded in my Saturn earlier this year for a Toyota PriusC. My wallet is thanking me for getting twice the mpg, especially averaging 50 in daily stop and go traffic.
Work: I still work at Terra Vista in the Snoqualmie Casino. Next month will be my 3 year anniversary there, in April I celebrated 4 years with the casino. I was working on specials for a few months, really honing in my skills and impressing my bosses, but have been put on the bench for the past few months. Hopefully soon I'll be able to start getting my creative genius on again.
School: I finally finished my associate's degree last August. I'm currently enrolled at the University of Phoenix for a BS in Accounting, and I'm looking to transfer to WSU's online Accounting program at some point.
Life: I've been feeling very lost. I've realized that the few (three) people I call my 'best friends' really don't know me, just the current dramas in my life. And I don't really know them. I went to my friend's wedding Saturday night; I knew no one there other than him, I had no idea how he met his wife (other than Events and Adventures) and knew nothing about her or their lives currently. I hadn't seen him in close to a year, and the last time we saw each other, Kennedy and I were mostly the topic of conversation.
Percolating on this, I realized that I don't even really know who I am. Through the years, I have changed myself so much to be what I thought those surrounding me wanted/expected me to be, that I don't know who I am. I have this amazing kid that has his very own personality, and I find the things he's learning from me, are the things I don't want him to be, nor do I want to be those things either.
I'm hoping to start a soul-seeking journey, as well as reprioritizing how my time is spent, and on what.
More to come...
