A Hodge Podge of Why I Haven't Posted In A While....

It feels like when I was a kid and had to go to confession. Forgive me for I have sinned, it's been too long since my last blog. And it has been quite a while. My life has drastly changed as of October 1. Moved from Atlanta to Knoxville and at the ripe age of 52, I am living with my Mom. Sounds like I am going backwards or as I like to put it "full circle". My Mom is ill and she has been very sad since my Dad passed away 8 years ago. We haven't had much time to spend together since I left home at 18. Trying to make up for lost time and getting to reknow my brothers and nieces, etc is the plan right now. My Aunt just passed a few weeks ago and she was just 2 years older than my Mom, so that will open your eyes if you are missing your family.

My long term relationship also ended and I now find myself single and wondering how does one go about dating in my situation. Sorry, you can't come over to where I live, yes I do live with my Mom... geez... I feel 16 again but without the smooth cellulite free skin, the shinny hair, the thin body and no wrinkles! 

I have managed to locate some old friends, I like to say old, even though they are all younger than me, makes me feel better! It has been fun talking about the good ole days, never thought the songs I danced too were going to be called "oldies". Boy that stings. Making some new friends as well and finding that Knoxville somehow has gotten more beautiful than it was when I lived here 18 years ago. Guess that means I am growing up finally. 


Well I am still unpacking boxes and trying to get  adjusted to my new life so I will try to keep you all informed. Hope I don't bore you too badly, take care, Auggie
