I am doing what I love after having been a stay at home mom and plan to continue just being creative, through blogging and the projects I work on. I get up every day with a thrist for learning and an excitement to meet new and wonderful people - like you. Thanks for sharing your thoughts, there are so many of us who feel the same.

I think blogging should be advertised as free therapy because it is such a good way to sort through your thoughts and then you get the added bonus of meeting other people who support you along the way! I'm off to read your post now and I'm so glad we're both doing better and have come out of the tunnel xLeannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05623420015695351280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4722898771124083282.post-83563910952882002742015-09-19T10:41:00.304+08:002015-09-19T10:41:00.304+08:00I loved this Leanne and it makes me smile.

It's funny because different circumstances, but I started for the same exact reason. Depression had taken over my life. I was stuck with mom and going crazy because at the time I was doing it all wrong and everyone was miserable. I had gotten sick and lost my voice for over two months after getting choked on a piece of chicken (I swear true story check out Darkest Days on my blog, very first post.). She couldn't hear, I couldn't talk and my poor husband didn't know which way to turn. Thankfully I got smart and educated myself on Alz and caregiving and the blogging has been phenomenal. I was suppose to go to therapy the Monday after I started my blog, but by then I didn't need it and didn't ever go. Today life is amazing and I wouldn't change it if I could unless it was to make momma better. I'm just blessed that I still have her. It's amazing what writing can do for you!.Renahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12296781992150172086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4722898771124083282.post-3029227054107746982015-09-16T20:19:36.238+08:002015-09-16T20:19:36.238+08:00me too Lana - you were one of my first ever bloggi...me too Lana - you were one of my first ever blogging buddies and I love sharing our blogging journey together :)Leannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05623420015695351280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4722898771124083282.post-59625059133591470912015-09-16T20:18:59.902+08:002015-09-16T20:18:59.902+08:00I think your groove is coming along very nicely Su...I think your groove is coming along very nicely Sue - your blog keeps getting bigger and better - mine is just puddling happily along and that's okay for me for now :)Leannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05623420015695351280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4722898771124083282.post-79940697089030202152015-09-16T20:18:09.479+08:002015-09-16T20:18:09.479+08:00it's definitely the same stage of life Suzi - ...it's definitely the same stage of life Suzi - and maybe we have a similar view of how to handle it - I like that!Leannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05623420015695351280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4722898771124083282.post-78627771100336263552015-09-16T14:14:12.797+08:002015-09-16T14:14:12.797+08:00Blogging has been the most positive thing I've...Blogging has been the most positive thing I've ever done, I think.
