It's Been a While

Man, has it really been 3 months since I've blogged? Gosh, time really flies. Things are pretty good. I've thought long and hard about and I've decided that it would be best if Pookie and I parted ways. In November, I don't know where I'll be living, but my son and I will be on our own for the first time in 4 years. I'm actually pretty excited about it.

I've also started dating a little. I forgot how shitty the dating scene is. Fred and I are no longer at it. We're really good friends actually. He's in LA, doing his thing. I miss him. I hope he's back by next weekend to celebrate my birthday with me. I spend a lot of my time with Daisy and Portia although my other besties Courtney and Nika are never too far away.

I'm in a strange state of figuring myself out. I gained back some of the weight I'd lost which means I gotta haul ass that much more. The awesome thing is that jogging is pretty easy now and my gym is across the street so I've just got to make it more of a priority. I guess I'm in a strange state of being. I've been a social worker for a year and a half now and to say that I'm burned out would be the ultimate understatement. I'm ready for an office job where I get home and I don't have to worry about notes or get calls about the issues people have. I care about the kids and families I work with, but the paperwork is kicking my ass and I'm starting to feel like I've got my own problems, so I'm tired of trying to be superwoman to everyone else.

Yeah, no real theme other than updating the world. Sorry to have been gone so long. I promise I'll do better. I missed writing.
