Life's Obstacles.

Oh my Goodness! It has been a while since my last post (about three months!). Don't worry, I have not fallen off the bandwagon yet for Blog writing. Just been a little pre-occupied with life.

IT'S GREAT TO BE BACK!!





In Regards To My Prior Post: Plethora of Projects...


  • Organizing Master Closet: Mega Fail. Our bedroom is now worse and even more cluttered than usual.
  • Home Management Binder: Super Fail. I have bits and pieces but have not actually sat down to organize and make one.
  • Pampered Chef: Stopped having parties but I still sell it.
  • Schoolwork: Extended my one class for 30 days; passed the other three with flying colors!
  • Recipe Cards: Epic Fail. I am, however, working on my recipes but they have not made it to an organization type system..yet.
  • Family Birthday Chart: COMPLETE!
  • C&C Cage: COMPLETE! (For the most part.)
  • Organizing Stuff: Working on it...





WHAT I'VE BEEN UP TO...


  • Organizing Apartment
  • Hanging things up
  • Working
  • Finishing Fall Semester
  • Cooking
  • Baking
  • Gaming
  • Shopping
  • Coping
  • Creating
  • Writing






Moving on.

It's been rough these past couple of months. My uncle was diagnosed with Cancer, underwent chemo, contracted MRSA, spent a lot of time in the ICU, and yo-yoed back and forth from good health to poor health. The rough part? He lived in Florida so I barely got to see him in the first place. My family and I went down for Thanksgiving to visit him and spend time with the rest of my dad's family. The day before we came home, my uncle passed away. It was hard on everybody. My dad went from being the oldest of three children to becoming an only child within 5 years. My poor grandparents now lost two of their children from Cancer.

The day before we left for vacation, my guinea pig passed away. Shane & I never fully completed the C&C cage because there is no use for it..right now.

The day we left for Florida, my mom's aunt passed away from Cancer as well.

These past three months have been filled with heartbreak and were especially hard for me to get anything done. There was no concentration, no motivation, nothing.


As time went on, Hurricane Sandy hit and devastated much of NJ. The Rockefeller Tree for NYC was chosen from my town. Shane participated in Red Bull's Flugtag. Christmas came and went. I fell behind in school because of everything that happened with my family. And now the year is almost over.


The last thing I want to include to this year is the Newport School shootings. My heart goes out to all those parents who lost their little angels that day.

Life should not be taken for granted.


Well, this started off as an okay entry and then slowly became depressing. There are no pictures or tutorials today. Just wanted to write to let everybody know that I am still here and kicking!

Tomorrow will be a better day! I promise.


Much Love,
