Been a While

It has been a very long time since I last wrote in this blog.  I have missed writing immensely.  I love the stroke of the keyboard as I try to filter through my thoughts and write something tangible.

We have been without a computer for the past six months.  We finally committed to purchasing a new one and both Jodi and I are content with our decision.  She has report cards coming up so the timing of it it perfect.

I am not going to write much today as I am extremely tired and need to get ready for bed soon.  As always, routine is so important for me.  I will share some longer posts later in the week.

I will report that I am managing things quite well these days.  I have been finding a healthy balance for the most part in my life.  I take my medications like clock work and am more astute in handling any mood shifts or negative thought patterns.  I have found a counselor that I will be checking in with monthly.  We are working at peeling back some of the layers and getting to the root of some things. I am really enjoying my nights and weekends at home.  I do not concern myself with work matters once I step in the car to drive home.  My time is now my time and it has been a welcome change.

I will fill in the last six months in a little more detail in the next few weeks. 

Hope this finds you well.  Happy Monday.  Take care, Shawn. 

Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day. You shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense.”
