Well it is 2004. This year of my life will be as the new woman I am now. Where I am integrated with all the parts of myself. I’m finding health, happiness and friendship this year. I didn’t have to make a resolution to do it. I’m just living it. Last night I went out to a friend’s house. It was fun but it was all couple and yes at times it was difficult because of that. I’ve been leaving this old life behind, more each day and today I leave it all behind. I even put up my profile on some internet dating/friend sites. I’m not looking for a relationship yet, it’s too soon. But I would like to make some friends, and yes male attention is nice too. Last night after I got home, I had an email from a man in NFLD. We emailed until early morning and it was fun, just chatting. I started the New Year off with a new friend.

I hope everyone has a wonderful New Year and that this year we all live life and not hold back. Life’s too short to wonder what if.

I thought I’d put up the old virtual me and the new virtual me for comparison. Hey Andrea, you should do it too. Not bad:-)

Last night I spoke to my new friend from NFLD on the phone for quite a while. It was very enjoyable. He’s a very intriguing man. I’m not even remotely interested in a relationship right now but it was nice to talk to someone who found talking to me stimulating and interesting and thought I had a beautiful smile:-)

A nasty virus has swept through our family. First the kids got it and now me. I’m feeling a little better today but still not at 100%. I won’t share the details of the symptoms, it’s breakfast time:-)

The holidays are over and it’s time to get back to busy life. I need to reassess some of Alec’s work this week. He will finally have Beavers tonight for the first time in months as there were so many cancellations from the weather. I had planned to go the gym tonight while he was there but I don’t have the energy, nor do I think would they appreciate me going there sick.

New acquaintances found in Montreal and Maine. Oh and one found in Miramichi, except I already knew her but didn’t recognize her picture when I messaged her:-)

Well everyone seems to be healthy again. No sick kids in the night and I’m feeling normal this morning.

I was thinking today about blogging and censorship. Most of us are relatively aware of our audience and so we censor our posts to a certain degree. There are times where I would love to be able to post exactly what I am thinking on here but instead I save that for my private journal. The sad truth is that posting thoughts like that would probably just upset, irritate or hurt people so there doesn’t seem to be any value to that.

Busy day in the works today, lots of errands, finally going to the gym tonight.
