I quit reading blogs about the same time that I quit writing this one...
four long years ago.
A lot happens in four years. On my 29th birthday, I wrote a post in this blog with a list of things that I had done in my lifetime. Well, here it is five years later and I am 34. Wanna know what I have done in the past five years?
Here goes...
...asked for a divorce.
...was granted a divorce.
...cried as my baby boy turned into a teenager.
...slept in the desserts of New Mexico, again.
...rekindled old friendships.
...began to learn how to fight in armor.
...been diagnosed as bi-polar and depressed.
...left a group of friends behind for good.

...decided I was Taoist.
...accepted the fact that I am not perfect.

It's been a crazy ride for the last five years. I quit writing this blog around the time that my marriage began to end. I am back again because I have gotten medical help for the mental issues that plagued me throughout my life and I want to write. I need to write. I need to just be me.
I hope you don't mind.
By the way...my name is Janelle. It's nice to meet ya.
