Sorry to everyone that I've not been around or communicating much lately. I've been trying to get a full time, dependable job that doesn't involve volume, queued call center work for some months now. My money has nearly dried up which obviously caused a lot of stress on multiple levels and I'm probably going to have to move back to St. Louis, where my family is, and get my feet back under me. It's mind blowing to me that getting a job has been so insanely hard for me to get. While I hope my boyfriend will eventually come to meet me up there once I get set back up, this just adds to the concerns since I really don't want to loose him either.
I've been slowly creeping back into a depressed state, which I've seen happening and try my best to stay proactive on working on. But things like this take it's toll, which for me tends to get quiet, since I don't like to put my problems or frustrations on others. I try my best to remain hopeful of getting a job while keeping the old Sufi adage in mind of, "This too shall pass!" Some days are tougher than others in the mean time.
Anyway, this isn't meant to be a rant, blame anybody, or asking for help. I really just wanted to give an update of why I've not been around much, quiet, and rather disconnected. Regardless of the financials of Steemit, I do really like the community that has been built here and hope to see it be maintained and grow. Please don't be offended if I miss messages, votes, etc, I simply need to get my life stabilized so I can at least be comfortable that my rent/bills can be covered.
