the northeast trip was a big success! i'm feeling much more centered now that i'm back in colorado. sometimes you need to be far away from you problems to get a real perspective of how to deal with them up close. the biggest way in that i finally feel like myself again is i feel like i've regained my 'glass half full' status. that's been clinging to dear life-at best- this whole summer, and that's been difficult bc having a positive outlook on life is how i survive it.
the trip itself doesn't have too many points of interest to report on. just really busy, family time, saw friends in nyc, my brother got a new puppy, saw friends in pa, and just got back to my roots in general. another reason it was great was bc it was the best trip out there since i moved to co. (the other ones had left more to be desired from).
now that i'm back i'm just focusing on the good in my life and letting the negative bounce off me. i don't think the drama/mudiness in my life is going to end anytime too soon, but i'm much more better equiped to deal with it. and i think it will pass in the not too distant future...just not right away. it's all good. :-)
