Hmmm, but where to begin?
There is a list of things, are without down playing any of them I want to share these things.
I finally received the beautiful long waited copy of Dr Nike Sulway's latest novel Rupetta. It's so beautiful, the paper thick and luscious in order to hold the beautiful of the words pressed upon it's pages. It's so surreal reading it again, in hard copy. Finding the small differences from the version I read some years ago. I'm reading it very slowly and enjoying the words as they rush over me.
I have now officially, legally changed my last name. It's taken so long for me to get around to it, but I finally did it. Me and my most amazing partner will be starting our family with one united name. I am now officially a Cohen. It's been interesting figuring out how to now sign my name. It's also a little daunting all the businesses and companies I now must contact in order to have all of my records changed to reflect my new name ... but it can't shake the excitement.
Work has sort of promoted me of sorts. I'm now Room Leader with my kids. I'm so excited (it was another arm flapping excitement moment) ... but it's a lot of new pressure and responsibility but now I've accepted that sudden forced time to grow up, I'm really excited about this opportunity. Plus, the biggest bonus being I get to stay with my kids and keep them in a routine and stability that I've been working on all year.
Latest news. We are moving! We found a place we truly love and adore. It's a little further out then I would have originally hoped, but it's worth it for the amazing feeling to our new home. We move next weekend so there is a whole lot of packing, calling and organising going on right now ... but it's going to be more than worth it.
Oh I remembered another exciting thing for myself. I started working on a story that is flowing wonderfully. I haven't written anything I have felt as worthwhile for some time now, but this story, this tale it feels necessary and needed .... and makes me feel better.
