A new start...(Day two)

Its day two of my new book for my life. Everyone always says they close one chapter and start another, but I've done that so many times before, that this is no longer just closing a chapter; I'm closing a whole book. Just moved to a new state and am officially on my own, well for the most part at least, I'm staying with my brother and his family until I can get my own place. If it wasn't for them, I doubt I would have ever been able to leave the hells of California. I'm incredibly grateful for the opportunity they both have given me. There are so many things that I need to get done. However, my top priority is to get a job. I started cruising around on Craigslist today to just get an idea of what's out there. Hopefully it won't be long until I find something. Anything at this point would be an incredible help. I look forward to the things that are to come.

Today, though, we went to my niece, Brooke's cheer leading class. She is so amazing! She is learning so many things and is only 3 1/2 years old. I can only imagine what she will be able to accomplish if she sticks with it.

Lil' man, Bradley, is growing up fast. Just had his first birthday and is standing on his own. It's amazing to watch kids grow right before your eyes. His birthday party is on Saturday and I'm looking forward to just spending time with family and hopefully making a few new friends.

First trip back to church will be this weekend, too. Looking forward to it actually! It's been a long time since I have been in church. I think it will be a good thing, too. Hopefully will meet some incredible people, people that will keep me going while I'm so far from home. I am in dire need of a good support system, and having my brother and his wife here is only the beginning to that system.

I truly have to focus and just get through things one step at a time.

One step at a time!
