All,
I'm so very sorry for disappearing on you all for so long. Life decided I was it's ragdoll play thing. A lot of not so great has happened, but some really good has happened, as well.
February 5th of last year, my Dad passed away from cancer. I realize that my logging in started to become spotty at that point. Now you know why. I hadn't realized how badly my brain had gone wacky until about a month or so ago. Given the circumstances, it is understandable. It's not so much that time has passed quickly between then and now...it just more or less disappeared. However, a ray of hope did shine through not very long after my Dad's passing.
I got in contact with a friend that I had lost track of for several years at the end of last February. Despite turning down several other friends for hanging out, I ended up going to a local museum with him. Not long after that, we started dating. On November 3rd, he proposed to me and I happily accepted. As I have known him since 2003, we already knew each other and not a ton had changed since we had lost contact for a while. If it weren't for him, I may still be dwelling about in the deep pit I let myself get into.
In addition to this, I also graduated with an AAS in Electrical Engineering in May along with 3 other certifications. It was after my graduation that I really took a nose dive because I had lost my drive.
I am doing far better than I was. I realized not to long ago I had unintentionally abandoned you all. For that I am extremely sorry. I plan on becoming active again. There may be some bumps along the way, but please bear with me during this reintegration process. I really did miss you all and GaiaOnline!
