Ok, really I never left exactly, I did start a new blog to chronicle my fiber adventures in the SCA and I've had several major attacks of life since my last post. Lately though I've felt like I needed to chronicle some of my other crafty projects that don't fit into my other blog, and to rant about the rest of life.
Life has been interesting since last I wrote. I graduated from law school, got engaged, had an excellent post-grad fellowship, passed the bar, found a job doing something I like, got married, lost the job, and got in a major car accident. That accident has changed my life more than anything I've ever done. I have major migraine problems as a result and needed hip surgery last year to repair the labrum in my right hip which was only partially successful in eliminating my pain. I can't work as a lawyer (or much of anything else) because of the headaches and resulting problems with confusion, anxiety and memory so I started a small business making knitting needle cases and bags as well as designing knitting patterns.
Thing are rough. Married life is not much of a consolation. It's given me a roof and keeps food on the table, but not much else. Most days I feel like a glorified housekeeper. I've found it difficult if not impossible to write for the last couple of years, which is one reason why this blog fell by the wayside. So has my personal journal. That has always been a source of comfort and a way for me to process things, be they events in my day or my sometimes confused emotions. I feel stuck and stopped up and I'm sick of feeling that way. Hopefully reviving this blog will help with that, if I have to write about something maybe I can start to write for myself again too and figure out what to do with my life. Again.
