Hello World!! Yes, I am still alive. I have not truly deserted you and I actually missed talking to you (or maybe just to myself) on this thing the entire time I have been M.I.A. Unfortunately, for me at least, I was not off having some spendid time walking along some wonderful isolated, pristine beach or wandering in some exotic market, but instead I have been moving my office and home for the last three months. Packing, unpacking, packing, unpacking. You get it. Right? Anyway, What a nightmare!! Well, I have finally found some beginnings of organization and stability; at least enough to put two words together which make sense (including one noun and one verb) so that I could begin to get back here and write about the changes going on in my life. Change. It’s such a scary word for some people. For me, it has almost been my lifeblood. It was standing still that scared me. Terrified me, actually. I’ve had to keep moving my entire life. There has always been so much to do, so much to learn; no time to rest. If I did, oh how much I would never have had time to see…or to learn. Right now (or a few months ago), I decided to rent this very cool loft. I did it when I actually decided to be open about it and “live my work” e.g. live at work. Yes, I now live at my law office. Or, I guess you could say “I now work at home.” (Not really. It is still a real law office.) Anyway, there is the danger of, if it is possible, my becoming more of a workaholic than I already am, but the grand side is, I get to work in my pj’s (at least until I mosey up and shower) and I am still always the first one at the office…everyday. The bad side is, well I can’t always wear my most comfortable (softest, and oldest) p.j.’s. just in case a client decides to drop by early.
To set some of your minds at ease, don’t worry. there is a clean break between the firm’s offices and my residence. And both are waayyy cool. Also. both have their own destinct and appropriate decor and boundries. I need to respect those too. In fact, I built them. I think I will like it: no, I think I will love it. It feels hip and very “high energy”. It also tells me that I am nowhere near “done.” In fact, it feels like this is a place where I can make a lot of good thinggs happen: in every aspect of my life. And how cool is that? Here’s to fresh starts and new directions!
