It's been awhile

I haven't written in more than a year. But, there is a good reason. I worked all of 2010. I'm not going to go into all the details about my job, but suffice it to say that my job hunt is over... (lay that one to rest!) Today is Super Bowl Sunday. I am not that into it this year. I enjoy it more when a team from the West Coast is playing. I do love the game and I love a good football game but.. well it's still just sitting in front of a TV... Now that I am back at work in a job that is fulfilling and is good for my career, I can begin to plan for what's next. What is next? I can't predict the future but I can plan. I discovered a new passion finally. (I had been searching for quite a few years for something I could get excited about in the same way I always loved sewing and learning spanish). "Playing fiddle." So, I plan to continue learning and playing fiddle and my goal is to be good enough to "jam" with other music enthusiasts. Also, I have decided that 2011 is my "year of the girlfriend". It started with spending New Year's Day with Cathie Childers, a friend that I hadn't seen in more than 20 years. So I plan to continue connecting with girlfriends and nurturing my friendships. Pursuing friendships and the fiddle will be easy compared to my next endeavor. I need to decide where to live. I have been in the Central Valley for almost four years and it has been a very healing experience but I am not sure if I should stay here long term. Dating prospects are slim. Need I say more on that subject. I shall close for now. I do hope that this year brings happiness and prosperity to all of my dear friends and family.
