Life Realizations and New Beginnings

I figured it was time to add to this blog.  LOL

In the past 6 months a lot has happened in my personal life. last September I went to the ER with what I was sure was a kidney stone. Well, call me surprised when the nurse came back in and said we are going to be admitting you for a diseased kidney.

So that hospital stay was 5 rough days out of my life.  The silver lining was, I got some peace and quiet and some rest. I did nothing but sleep.  Didn't even turn on the TV while I was there. Only my visitors did.  I was sent home with a tube coming out of my back to drain the diseased fluid out of my kidney. That was rough living with that tube and bag for the next 30 days. My heart really goes out to those that live with type of apparatus permanently.

In October I was re-admitted to the hospital to remove said kidney.  So another 5 days of hospital food and peace and quiet.

It has taken me 3 months to recover this far.  I can drive now and pick up more than 5 lbs.  LOL I am almost back to normal.  If you could even call me normal in the first place, I am a writer after all.  LOL  We have to be a little bit warped to do that.

I had stopped writing, trying to focus on my health since September. For a time there, I seriously thought I was dying, it was rough.  Everyday in the hospital in September I was getting bad health related news.  I thought I had better get things in order.  So I did. I had to come to some life realizations, which I did. So, in a why I have changed for the better. I am more relaxed and prepared, just in case.

I have recovered nicely and the fact that I came to those realizations and got things in order has just put me more at ease in life in general.

Then a few more major life events happened that has flipped my life upside down.

With her/his permission I can say this on my Blog.  My daughter has come to her own realizations in her own life.  Her and her husband have decided to divorce after 11 years of marriage. They remain friends, which is awesome!

Her/his life changing event you ask?  Well, she has, apparently without me stupid Mom being aware, has always wanted to be a man.  So she/he is in transition. She/he has moved back home. She/he helps me with my Mother, who has advance Alzheimer's, while  beginning her/his new life's journey.

So, as you can see, my personal life has been quite full.

NOW, I am almost back to 100% and have picked up where I left off with my 5th novel.  I am almost done and just the other day, received a possible cover image for the new book cover.  I love it!  I am hoping it gets me motivated to continue the story.

In the meantime, if you haven't already started reading my novels, please take a look at them on my website and see if they strike your fancy.

Happy Reading!
