New beginnings, again.

So I am totally blessed to have a friend who loves me no matter what, and is willing to keep giving me chances and believes in me enough to want to keep me in her life.
I am living in a wonderful place, with my 4 animal kids.
I have a great new job that I LOVE.  My boss treats me with the respect I deserve and appreciates and rewards me for the hard work I put in.
I have shed myself of the limiting, controlling people in my life who brought me down, looked down on me and treated me not as an equal but as a defective problem they thought they needed to "fix".
I am continuing to grow and change, and evolve and learn.
I will be attending school in the fall, and am really looking forward to learning more and becoming even more self-sufficient.
I've gone through major changes in the past 6 months...again, and have once again landed on my feet.
I lost a wonderful friend. She died in her sleep. This has made me appreciate what I have in my life and live every moment like it could be my last, because it just might be.
I'm very blessed, and very grateful for life and what it has to offer today.
This may change tomorrow...but for today, and most days...life is good.
