Beginning of the Beginning

I didn't expect to be able to find my original blog so easily and wasn't expecting to post anything right now. It is going to be a busy day and I actually need to get going. But I'll post a small something.

The last time I wrote in this blog was the summer of 2013 and the years after that through the summer of 2016 were one hellish thing after another. I am a firm believer in paying the consequences for one's own actions but honestly, I think my "punishment" was worse than the "crime". I STILL owe the original $10,000 of Alexi's medical debt. Yay credit card interest rates. My own credit union denied me a bill consolidation loan despite my stellar credit rating. I have lived on almost nothing just to keep my bills paid on time.  I will stop here. I want my blog to be positive.

I need to get going anyway.

I want to publicly thank my cousin Loolwa Khazzoom for getting me going again with my hopes and dreams. Finding her last summer was one of the best events of my life.
