A Fork In The Road

I was so close to giving up.


Not just blogging but on life in general. I have had a hell of a time over the last month.

I lost my job and am taking them to court for constructive dismissal. Apparently I was a bit too outspoken and my job just got taken away from me till I was sitting in an office doing noo tang!!

Have had severe family issues but I am not going into them. They were the worst though!!

I am coming out the other side, reassessing - as we are constantly doing, and I am ready to attack life again. Live it. Love it. Attract good things and repel the bad. I just signed up to complete my naturopathy. I shall fucken do it.

Blair has gone back to work, got the all clear on his lungs after coming back from Aussie with the worry of it all. Apparently it was a nipple shadow. Barstards!!

Anyway, it sent us in a new direction. We are what matter, not where we live or what we have so we are focusing on us as a family, a couple and as individuals. It will be great times ahead.

My blood tests (which I finally had) came back with exceedingly high fasting insulin levels. I am in a state of "pre diabetes" and I desperately need to address that.

My counselling finished, I discovered myself a lot but still feel that I am not quite the full package but what I did realise, is I am the ONLY person that can do anything about that. We choose how we react, act and live. I choose me.

I am sorry I haven't been around and I can promise that I probably won't get to read the 1725 posts that I haven't read yet on bloglines. That is yesterday, that is past, I won't go back. I can only go forward.

I look forward to sharing again.

Lots of love.

Jules

Don't you ever, ever think like that again!!!! grrrrr..... You must focus on your kids and family and really, nothing else matters.

I'm sorry about the job - you just need to be in a different work situation where your personality can be free, not restricted.

I hope the severe family issues are over. Keep smiling and focus on what is important.

Its too hard to catch up so as you said...don't... I am gald Bair is okay and hope you get satisfaction from the courts re dismissal.

re you health, please take care of yourself...you are the mum and wife and believe it or not you are the lynchpin of the family at this stage. Whatever you can do to get the "pre diabetes" under control do...my sister is in renal Dialysis as a nurse and you want to do everything you can do to avoid full blown diabetes...everything okay .

Take care okay.
