So, after hearing the opinions of a couple of different friends and family members, I've finally decided what I'm going to do with this blog. I was originally going to use it to help me open up about the feelings I have about the loss of my dad. I have now decided that only the happy memories and random thoughts will be posted on here. One friend told me that writing all of your thoughts down has been scientifically proven to be therapeutic, so more personal and angrier thoughts will be written in a journal.
One thing that I can't help but wonder is if my dad was ever angry with me for moving to Arizona straight out of high school. Was that his reasoning for hating Phoenix so much? Did he think Phoenix stole his daughter away from him? As much as I love living down here, I probably won't live here forever. Jay has been trying to convince me to move for quite a while now. But no matter where the Lord takes me, Idaho will always be my home. I just hope Dad realized that.
Being home last week did make me realize just how much I miss all my family and friends. Which was another reason for starting this blog. So friends and family can follow all the happenings of the Noriega household without me having to make millions of phone calls. :-)
If you have any thoughts, leave them for me in the comments or send me an e-mail.

Hey girlie! I am so proud of you!! I love ya so much, and I'm so glad you are getting your thoughts out, one way or another. I am a writer too. I am much better at writing letters or emails to people than picking up the phone. Plus, with kids, it's much easier to write when you can, instead of talking when someone calls. :D And, if people are waiting for me to call them, that could be a long wait... as you know. Ooops, sorry! :)
ReplyDeleteI hope you find peace with all you are going through. I love ya girl, and I worry about you! Remember, that's my job!! Looking forward to future posts! Till then!
