Sorry To Be MIA!

Sorry friends I have not posted anything deep and with substance in a while. I have been experiencing a mild case of writer's block coupled with thoughts about how I can make my deepest dreams (that nobody knows about) become a reality. These thoughts and fantasies seem to be consuming me.

For now here what's going on. I started teaching on Monday and all the anxiety came back at once; the nausea the lump in my throat everything! I broke the ice by creating humor and my students seemed to enjoy it. I wasn't as prepared as I should have been there is always next time. In addition to teaching, I will be starting my certification classes on the 25th. Between teaching and classes it seems I will not have time for anything else.

I recently let a writer friend of mine read my manuscript. She suggested some changes. I recently re read the manuscript and I thought boy have I come a long way since I started writing in 2002. My goal of this book is to reach thoes who have survived what I have and continue to struggle on the path to recovery. I do not plan to write a best seller or make the best seller list (although that would be cool) but very unlikely. Now begins the intense task of editing and rewriting.

With all that is going on I am trying to look for the balance. Between teaching, taking classes and editing the book I need to find time for ME! If I don't all the work I did in recovery will be for not.
