Not Too Late

I just returned from an incredible weekend with my sister and nieces in VA. I've been considering relocating to VA/DC for several years now but the thought of leaving everything I've ever known (in GA) completely freaks me out. Completely.

CMP gave me a "good talkin to" about the good and bad of living up there - bur more so she gave me an amazing insight in to my life. How does she know me so well? We see each other 3-4 times a year, and rarely email each other (she doesn't do small talk), but she really hit some sensitive spots (some I still don't agree with!), and helped me to see what I'm really missing in my life - a life.

Yesterday, a friend sent me an email with a link to TD Jakes' daughter's wedding pictures. Bishop Jakes is an amazing person and I have the utmost admiration for him. After looking through the pictures and reading his thoughts of his daughter's wedding day, I clicked on "thought of the day." BAMM. Check this out:

NOT TOO LATE
You must remember that no matter where you are, it's not too late to start over, begin anew or grow to a higher level. You have everything you need to reposition yourself, to throw off the limitations of others, and to thrive. Like a mighty oak or a beautiful rose, you are destined for greatness, growing taller into maturity, flourishing with an inner beauty yet to be released. Go forward, my brothers and sisters, and get started-your life without limits awaits!

Guess I better start packing....

Oh happy day??

wow.. it's really been a month since I last blogged? geez...time flies.

ok... I have new medicine right? it's been 3 weeks, and I am beginning to feel a little better, but I've noticed that I'm thirsty all the time and I sweated (is sweated a word? it doesn't sound right!) so much this weekend that I took 2 showers on Saturday and Sunday... then I look at the side effects of the medicine...
Other common side effects included dry mouth, constipation, decreased appetite, fatigue, sleepiness, and increased sweating.
CAN'T I HAVE THE DECREASED APPETITE???? oh no my friend, you're getting all the other fun stuff:

I'm tired, constipated, thirsty , and sweaty
... ain't that a nice picture?
Now, this medicine is supposed to help with depression... how many tired, constipated, sweaty, thirsty, HAPPY people do you know????

Rah, Rah, Sis Boom Bah

Just as an update - I made it through Statistical Analysis with an A! Don't ask me how, it seems like a distant, far away memory now... but it wasn't so bad... that magic 8 Ball was a life saver!
