Welcome

Welcome to my blog! I've gone back and forth about starting this thing for a while now because I know there won't be many people that will read it since I'm not going to advertise it anywhere. It'll be more like a personal diary of things going on in my life and anything else I find interesting. I'm not very creative, so don't expect anything fancy here lol.

So, a little about me. As you can see over to the right, I'm 28 (will be 29 next month). I have a 3 1/2 year old son and I'm currently going through a divorce after being married for over 5 years. The divorce was completely unexpected by me and took me by surprise. I did try to fight for the marriage at first, but I soon realized that it was for the better. It sucks for our son since our family is now another statistic, but its better if he sees us both happy than be miserable together, at least in my opinion.

I'm living in our house (well, townhome) right now, but I don't know how much longer I'll be there. The housing market still sucks, so we're exploring our options with that one. Any suggestions? Eventually I want to move back to Texas (I'll explain the first 28 years of my life in another post).

I also have a lab mix that's almost 2. He's my buddy and I'm glad I get to keep him out of the divorce. I hate taking him outside in the snow to go potty, but at least he's pretty good at not messing up in the house. He'll sit in the recliner with me for hours and follow me around everywhere I go.

For work, I have 2 jobs right now technically. For my day job, I work as an IT Administrator and Inside Sales Rep for Packaged Concrete, Inc. I'm our sole IT department. Things have been slow, so my days are pretty boring and I'm usually online trying to keep myself busy. My 2nd job is as the Systems Administrator for PPCGeeks.com.

I have some great friends and family that support me and have always been there for me. You really do find out who your best friends are in your toughest times, and I can't imagine my life without them. I don't get to talk to some of them as much as I would like, but its worth it when I do. I wish I lived closer to most of them though, I only have 1 close friend up here, and she's about an hour away.

So that's my current life in a nutshell.
