I've been busy....

and Missing in Action.
and I'm Sorry.

Life called, it needed me to stop in to pay a little more attention.
Guess I had been cruising on Auto-Pilot & a few things were falling through the cracks.
I put on the breaks, slowed down a little bit.

Sometimes you have to do that.
Think I've got a better grasp on things.

Life. If you don't slow down, you'll miss it.
This shit is happening fast... I mean REALLY fast.
I want to smell everything, taste everything, feel everything.

Suppose when I was on Auto Pilot I wasn't doing much of that.
Had been going through the motions, but wasn't really FEELING it all.

Everything outside of my kids of course.
You all know that.
Those little people are my life - But my life entails more than them.

I have a partner.
an extended Family.
a Home.
a Life.
All things that also need my loving attention.

The holidays are here...
So much to be thankful for, so much to celebrate, so many merry merry memories to relish upon.
Life is good.
Life tastes, smells, feels good.

and I'm focused.
and I'm present.
and I'm trying.
and I'm getting better.
and I'm growing.
and I'm falling in love, again.
and I'm listening.
and I'm hoping.
and I'm holding on.

and I'm loved, and super duper lucky.
