JF is back!
I have been gone for almost 3 years. I see that my past post was somewhere in mid 2011. Things have been happening for me since then.
First of all. in 2009 I lost my dad so I went through a very very very HARSH path where I started to become more aware of people and worked my way out of the thorns then got better as years went by.
In 2011 my mom's house was hit and destroyed by a tornado. My mom is okay she wasn't home. My brother was home and he has a big time disability that does not allow him to move faster like we do walking wise. He made it to the basement before the house got torn apart. he was able to watch the whole thing happen while he was against the wall. (The house was a split level so image walking down the stairs toward the family room / laundry room and then watch the house get torn apart from the stairs. --- I got pictures)
It was the first time EVER in my life to experience a faint spell. I drove for 2 hours hurrying to my mom's home and then saw a war zone as the police allowed me to enter. I finally got to my house and got out with startled look on my face. I then leaned against my car and went all light headed.
No one died in the tornado but 69 houses were destroyed.
That was my new chapter --- I was able to finally let go of clutter in my life. both mental and material wise. I started to clean up my life meaning letting go of people from past, letting go of so - call friends, and all of that.
I need time to recover and focus. Image this. 300 friends on facebook went down to only 82. Now it's steady climbing back up as some has reconnected
I became stronger.
I am getting involved more and more into my hobbies such as Geocaching, Photography, and I am finally able to use my degree. I have already done book covers for another author and 2 are published right now. the 3rd is almost done by tomorrow then I'll be on the 4th.
I also found out my cousin got hired for a graphic design job and he gave me the information so I am going to apply and hope to get a job as a production artist.
HOWEVER I have another job which I teach sign language for a Park and Recreation in the city. They found me and asked me to work for them so now I have private lessions with some people if they cannot attend the regular classes and it's separated from Park and Recreation.
I finally started to write my books. After years of research and gathering notes/information/materials. I have 2 books under works and I believe the one I am more excited about will become a series. We will see how the book goes.
My husband and I recent brought a house. our first house ever. It is a new chapter for me and I LOVE owning a house! No more landlord, saving few hundred more than renting.
I am pretty much blissed and I am more clear mind than ever. I have totally changed from years ago.
One last thing. I hate how I am not connected to the furry community. It is what helped me come out of my shell and how I feel like I could belong but now I don't feel like I belong to one anymore.
Hence the reason I came back. I want to get back in touch with my furry community. _________________ ~JF

He is. He crawled to the basement window where the firefighters broke the glass and pulled him out then taken him to the hospital. His service dog a Golden Retriever was sucked backwards into the tornado and end up a block and half away uninjured with ONE broken clawnail. My mom said that she saw him witht he vet while the vet was gathering all the pets and Peri was very very filthy (brown matted with mud and dust) upon his golden blond fur. He wasn't upset or anything just a ;__; look when I picked him up a week later he was leaping in air overjoyed and jumping onto me. Normally he doesn't do that because he was trained to be calm and collected. He was calm and collected after being thrown across the neighborhood. _________________ ~JF

sadly, I never played Second Life, though I knew several people who did. I'm doing good though. It's good to hear your life is taking a turn for the better too. |
