This photo is a complete summation of my life for the last 5 months. No, life did not settle down. No, we did not land and stay landed. No, I am not complaining about it... 

Yet again, the best of my plans lay to rest and God's are proving to be better.

Since my last post, I faced a layoff due to programmatic changes in Nov. and gained a new job with a Loveland program for at-risk youth in the same month. Then 2.5 months later was offered another position that I really thought was a long shot. Long story short, we are back in Cheyenne and we are the best we've been probably ever. 

I am now managing 1/3 of the programs in WY (governmental and non-profit) that receive funding from the State.  Technically I'm employed by the Office of the Attorney General, Division of Victim Services. I LOVE it. I give all the kudos to the Lord... there were numerous other applicants with amazing qualifications. I know he paved the way for me to fast-track through the nonprofit arena and hold multiple positions to prepare me for this one. 

So, we are one week and three days into life in Wyoming and everything is so bright and relaxed. We have a great amount of excitement and anticipation regarding what the near future holds... a shift that holds so many more options and freedoms.

I've never felt better about myself or my life. My journey for the last 2 years has re-created me. Spiritually, mentally and emotionally. I am the best me and it's only going to get better.
