Wow, time flies!

To think that it's been over a year since I have posted anything is sort of scary. I guess after school finished for me last August I have been sort of out there in my own little bubble.

At first I was just working the general work that I have been doing with Gallo Professional services and then life took over towards the holidays when I had to take a short temporary job to help out around here more. Then I took some time off and did some soul searching only to find out how much I really desire to work in my chosen field.

I've been doing some work now and again throughout the summer months while I had Dakota and Aidan at home with me and things have sort of come together this year. My bank account is actually staying in the positive - lol.

With everything else happening lately I think I might be able to start working on this blog some more and update it to reflect my non student status; however, I will still be posting helpful student "stuff" so that anyone who still reads me will get something out of it all.

If you've been stopping by over the past year, thank you for your continued support. If you haven't been stopping by until now, thank you for sticking with me and being willing to see what I have new to say.

Much appreciation to everyone who has helped me get the blog rolling in the first place and also to those who will be helping me out in the months and possibly years to come.

Kindest,
Me
