Rise from the dead

So it's been years...and well let's see what has changed...

I got out of the Air Force...maybe you already knew that. Moved to Detroit, but couldn't find a job. Got a call from Wynne and Brian down in Florida saying that they had a job for me... I thought about for a few weeks, and then decided I had to take it. At the time I was very concentrated on getting Aidan back with me. The job turned out to be very good. I lived in Panama City Beach form almost 3 years (I'll probably use another blog to fill you in on that). Then I moved here to O'Fallon, IL (near St Louis for anyone not willing to pull it up on Gooogle maps). I got a job that was satisfactory, but not anything to rave about. After the contract switched to a new company I did stay on, and I work with some very good people, who help make showing up every day worth it. I'll also use another post to try and cover everything that's happened since moving up here...like moving into one place, then moving into my own place...

So why am I back? I need a place to start putting my thoughts together again. I'm at a very confusing point in my life. I happened to stumble across my old blog and started reading it... I got nostalgic for how I used to keep things updated pretty regularly. I want to get back to that. I want to be able to look back years from now and have some sort of record of how my life went... This time around I would like to do it without many of the restrictions I use to put on myself... I would blog often, and just make comments on the day, and life with Aidan etc, but I would often edit myself based on who I knew would be reading...I don't want to do that any more. I've had good and bad things happen in my life. I've hurt others and been hurt. I've made others happy, and some have done that for me...so now as I begin my trial experiment of blogging again I will not hold back.

I'm at a point where I'm feeling pressure to know what it is I really want in life, and to set myself on the path that will most likely help me to get it. I'm probably the only one who that will be interesting to, but who cares? I'm not advertising that this blog even exist any more. I'm just going to use it as my journal and keep living my life. I'll also put in the light, weird, neurotic thoughts that cross my mind like I used to...just because I can still make myself laugh, and hope that I always will...

OK, it's almost 11. I'm sleeping at Patty's tonight. I wish she knew how much I just enjoy having her next to me...

Gotta go kids

Cheers!
