Hey guys!! So my trip home to KS last weekend was exhausting and amazing! Left MN Friday morning at 6 am, and pulling into my hometown about 4pm. got a quick adjustment from my cousin who is an amazing chiro, and headed to dads house... At my cousins bachelorette party her dad talked to me for 20 minutes or so before he finally got that glazed look over his face smiled big and said "LISA????" I'm like uhhh yeah? he didn't know who I was... that was the first time that has happend to me and it's happend over and over thoughout the weekend... that was greatest compliment ever! Then I was able to meet up with an old HS friend that I haven't seen in 15 years. I decided to forego sleep most of the weekend to hang out with him and it was wonderful! It was like there was never a gap in our friendship, so much to talk about and such a fun time... it was the first time in years that I wasn't ready to leave LOL.  I also received a phone call on Friday afternoon and was offered a job that I've been interviewing for!.... FINALLY! It's a HUGE pay raise so that means me and the kids will be just fine on our own... I guess prayers have been answered? As far as the kids and I go we are finally settled into the new place and loving it!!! I am finally feeling like I've got the space I need to learn who I have become, and it is probably the most freeing feeling ever. I want to thank those of you who have been there as a support throughout this. You all mean the world to me and I love you. Planning to be in Eagan on Sat. Can't wait to see you all then. Hugs L.

YEAH FOR YOU!!!!  Glad you had a good time, glad you weren't recognized, and sooooo happy about your promotion.  With a free feeling, you can open up based on true feelings and not the "needed" stuff. WOW all around for you. See you Saturday!!!! XXOO

It doesn't go. And I am feeling that it never will and I honestly don't think I want it to. I know it probably sounds selfish, but right now I need time for me. And it's just me and the kids and I can't think of a time when I was a better mom, or took better care of myself.

Lisa~It sounds like you a great time, it is nice when vacations are actually that rather than fuflilling an obligation to see family!  Congrats on your WOW moments and your new job!  I hope to see you some time soon, maybe I will head down to Eagan on Saturday!

Oh my gosh, Lisa!  What a fantastic weekend you'd had--reminds me of when I'd returned to my small hometown a year ago for their annual summer festival.  HUGE positive reinforcement for so much diligent hard work!  YEEEEEEEAAAYYY YOU!   And GARGANTUOUS congratulations on your promotion!  Am thrilled to pieces knowing you're settled in and feeling the total freedom you so deserve--have been in a funk  lately, and honestly, reading your amazing upbeat positive post, reminds me 'it's not about waiting for the storm to pass, it's about learning to dance in the rain.'  You certainly danced in the rain girl friend, and now you're    in the sunshine.  WOW!  Hugs galore, Patti
