Guys, it’s been a couple of months.
And they have been MONTHS.
Here’s the short list of why I haven’t been around much this time:
- I have my DREAM job with my DREAM company and it’s going amazing. Sometimes stressful AF but the challenge is great and I finally found a great team to be part of.
- Mom is back at work and doing great. Thank you guys for being so supportive <3
- Now that that’s figured out, my best friend from high school and I made plans to move out together. June 1, baby!!
- My friend got married in Jamaica and there was a bunch of prep around that and it was hot but not only did I survive, I had a GREAT time. Yay!
- The day week before I left for Jamaica my doctor found a lump in my thyroid that’s pretty big - 4cm to be exact. Came outta nowhere.
- So I have to go get it biopsied to confirm it’s just a cyst and not cancer (and we’re all 99% sure it isn’t but still, not fun)
- The day I came back from Jamaica I found out that my best friend - the one I’m moving out with - her dad? He tried to stop a robbery and was murdered in broad daylight in the middle of a shopping mall.
- Found out when I was flying home and finally logged into Facebook to wish her a fucking happy birthday. The day after her dad died.
- Fhe story and the manhunt for the fucker who did it was all over the news the whole week I was away, partying it up on a beach while my friends life was turned upside down.
I wish I was exaggerating some of this but I’m not.
Mentally, my depression has kicked in by way of fatigue. Like I said, I think I’m okay emotionally - but my body is reacting with heavy exhaustion. I’m keeping an eye on myself so things don’t get worse, but yeah... it’s a lot right now.
Anyways. Emotionally, I’m okay. Just focused on my work and my friend and trying to help her pick up the pieces.
It’s just so true that as soon as one part of your life comes together, the rest can fall apart.
