IT'S BEEN A WHILE!!

Well, after speaking to my Mom in South Africa today, I realised that I haven't posted since Christmas!!! Wow, did I get behind! Life has been crazy busy but really good! Teagan is fantastic, turning 3 at the end of January if you can believe it! It feels like just yesterday she was a newborn infant in my arms, now she is little Miss Independent! She is 3 going on 16, she wants to do everything "big girls" do, including make up, hair and princess dresses!!

So.. I am actively back on the job hunt, my severance has been great, and being able to spend time with Teagan has been wonderful but it's back to the grindstone now, and I have to find a job. I am really struggling with going back into a corporate position, I didn't realise how stressed out life was until I was on the outside looking in, and now I am looking for something a little less stressful but something that can still support Teagan and I. It's not asking too much is it?? ;-) Any suggestions/ ideas?

Some exciting news, my Mom arrives on Monday for 6 weeks!! We haven't seen her since Teagan was 14 months old, so we are beyond excited!! Teagan is very excited so spend time with her "Grammy Africa", it's all she can talk about!

On the other side of life, I met the most wonderful man... Let's call him Mr MN. After much umming and aahhing I decided to sign up with eHarmony, yes I did! And all I can say is "Thank You"! Mr MN is 41, divorced with 3 really great kids, is kind, loving, affectionate, attentive and just an all around great guy. Which, for me, is completely outside of the box, since I usually only seem to date A**holes. Go figure right! So Mr MN reached out and wanted to chat, and I almost overlooked him, but something inside said "Take a chance - step outside of your comfort zone", and I did. And I am now dating Mr MN! YAY ME!
