HOME

They say that there is nothing like HOME and I am HOME in Minneapolis as most of you know already. Things just didn't work out in Las Vegas the way that I had hoped. There are things that I would never trade a thing for though. I was able to reconnect with my brothers Michael and Joshua and they couldn't make me any prouder. I am super excited to see what their futures hold and look forward to a continued relationship with them. Another thing that I wouldn't trade is the time I spent with my dad. We had our ups and downs, but like everyone says, we are both stubborn as hell. I am glad I got to know him a little bit better. I learned things about him and saw things in him that I never knew.

So now that I am HOME, now what?

First things first, I need a job. I guess I mis-understood what Tubman told me prior to coming back to Minnesota. I have applied for two different positions through Tubman, but am now in the waiting game. I have also looked into a few other positions, both within social services and other fields.

I kind of came home to a guy. This guy came to Vegas for vacation and we hung out one of the nights that he was there. I had an amazing time with him and we both had sad times after he left. He said to me one night - "How can someone pass up something that could potentially be good?" and so far things with us are good. We seem to 'fit' together well and some of his friends have even said that they really want things to work out between us because they think that we both deserve happiness and can see that we make each other happy.

Angie and I are on the hunt for a place to live. She was suppose to move to Vegas eventually but things got in the way, such as shattering her ankle. It's hard to commit to a place though, with me having no income coming in yet. We have found some promising leads, and once I start working we will be able to move forward and move out of our parent's homes.

I am hoping to get back into writing more so you should be able to see updates a little more often than what happened this summer.
