A gift I didn't think could be real

Day 26 - A song that you can play on an instrument

The only instrument I know how to play (and we are using the world play quite liberally here haha) is the guitar.

But I'm still very much a beginner and really only know chords and pieces here and there of different songs (mostly Incubus of course) that I've attempted to teach myself.

Learning guitar is hard! A lot harder than I expected it to be. But I don't want to give up, I think it's fun. If only I had bigger hands/longer fingers it would probably be about a million times easier haha.

So since I can't really answer this question... instead today I will give a mini update on the this crazy life of mine since it's been a few weeks since I've really talked about anything thats going on.

I am happy. Life is going pretty well. It's been a long time since I could legitimately say that. I haven't felt this good, and this happy in quite awhile.

My kiddos are healthy and growing like weeds and are absolute joys in my life. I'm still on the better job search, and hopefully something will pan out soon with that so that come May I don't have to move to a smaller apartment.

My friends, as always, are amazing and I have such a great time with them. My birthday is coming up soon and I have no doubt they will somehow make it pretty epic haha.

Still looking into going to school for nursing, but figure all in due time, I have enough on my plate at the moment, but I haven't given up on that dream, or forgotten about it.

I still go to therapy, but only like once a month now, more for just a kind of  "check in and touch base see how things are going" kind of thing. I plan on phasing out the antidepressent in the next few months because I feel like I'm back to my "baseline" and won't be needing it anymore.

It's probably too soon to talk about this as well, and I'm probably jynxing myself by bringing it up... but I can't deny the fact that a big part of my feeling happy right now is because I've met a truly incredible guy.

Neither one of us wants to rush anything... but all those cliches that people talk about? Yeah, totally apply with him. "One soul inhabiting two bodies" Yup... we are so much alike, it's almost scary. And yet we have enough differences that it keeps it interesting.

So yes, of course, only time will tell what happens... but all I know is I like him, he seems to like me... my kids like him, he seems to like my kids, so maybe, just maybe, this story will have a happy ending, eh?
