Hey everyone! (And by everyone I mean anyone who is yet to give up hope for this blog.) It feels like its been forever; I haven't posted consistently since probably September last year and things are once again changing so I thought I'd write a little update.
1. My health: I feel like I've been living at the doctors these past few months. Blood tests showed I was deficient in iron, B12 and Vitamin D, and a follow up test three months later showed that my iron deficiency had only gotten worse. Now I'm just waiting to see a doctor about getting an iron transfusion.
I also got put onto antidepressants (Zoloft) for a little while but when a chest pain I've had for a long time came back I was taken off them again just to be on the safe side. Since then I've had an ultrasound done on my heart (it's all good) but haven't started up medication again.
I'm getting my wisdom teeth out! All four at once, and I'm a little bit scared. That'll be on March 31st. I had an appointment with the dentist who will be doing the operation the other day and as I was rushing at home so I could get there in time I happened to smash my foot up against our bench... long story short it turns out I now have a broken toe to contend with as well.
2. My mind: I'm slowly but surely feeling clearer in my mind. Now that I'm also slowly getting energy back it's easier to feel positive about change. There's so many habits I want to gain and so many habits I want to leave behind and I'm starting to feel as though that's possible. I can feel the desire to do things bubbling below the surface, I want to sew again, and go for walks again and just be me again. I'm learning Norwegian and re-learning Japanese, and I want to pick up a whole bundle of new hobbies. I so badly want to get back into blogging too, I just need to find some ideas.
3. My life: There's both not much and everything to update here. A couple of important things though; my sister and I are looking to move out of where we are & into a place with just the two of us soon. I'm so excited about this! I feel incredibly anxious all of the time where I currently am, so a change of scenery with someone I've always known is much needed.
I got a *sort of* job!? Interviewing people who want to go and teach at a summer camp in the US like I did back in 2015. I'm so excited to get started!

There's just a feeling of change in the air, as the seasons start to shift I fill like I will too.
