House of Deej
October 6, 2008
Hola
I am alive.
An odd sign seemed to have come from above while I was re-evaluating a few things in my life. There I was contemplating changes and if I should make them. I was kicking myself for believing mistakes can be forgiven and forgotten. I was debating what path to take and then it happened.
Eureeka!
Mon hubby cancelled one credit card to get a lower rate on another. He didn't realize our internet service was being paid for on the one he cancelled and bingo bango - no more internet was happening in the House of Deej.
It took over a week for me to even realize it was gone.
If anyone mentioned a year or even a few months ago that I'd be able to survive without the net on a daily basis, I'd have told them they were delusional. Now, it's absolutely true.
I have it here at work, but I tend to only use it for grading and checking the news. Otherwise, I'm just not online now.
Soon, it will be back. I'm not in any great rush to get it, but I will need it if I am going to do work from home. Working from home is totally a huge part of my life. I am putting in 50+ hours a week this year.
I really love the new program I am creating. Oddly, I was previously looking at leaving this place to work with an Upward Bound Program in a different state. It was something I never saw myself doing, but it was looking like a plunge into taking my life in a different direction and grabbing the golden ring - I thought figuratively and realistically. Ooops - dorkly moi.
Instead, I have jumped with both feet into something different while still teaching regular mainstream classes. I love the challenge and the change. The other path would have challenged me as well, but this is a good thing and I think it's looking to be successful so far.
I will be back eventually.
For now - just know you are in my thoughts. Even now, I still pause and think to myself "oh man, I should blog about that". I guess that blogging habits are easily ingrained. You people rock.
Peace

Face it, Deej, you're a blogging crackhead like the rest of us.
It's good that you're doing something that invigorates you and gets those creative juices flowing.
Just don't join the Peace Corp. I really can't see you digging latrines in 3" stilettos.

Don't worry Deej....I've been missing in action for some months now and couldn't wait to get back to the family here.
I don't know much about crack....well, actually nothing about it, but I do know the addiction of blogging and it can get pretty damn serious sometimes.
I've been jonesin' for quite a while now. I've no doubt that we'll be seein' ya fairly soon.
Good luck and have all kinds of fun in your new venture!
