The Name

Only one thing comes to mind when I think about what I am going to write, change. No, not Obama change. Change in my life recently. The last two years for me have been like a very long rollercoaster ride. Let me recap real fast, 2 August ago, I moved here to Kentucky, not by choice. 6 months later met Trevor whom to me was just an older guy who I was going to date my senior year... 3 months after to my surprise I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis.
To my family and I this was a huge shock, mostly to my mother, since her older sister has it and its a sore subject in our family. But guess what, I have it and I've had to get over it. Yes I threw myself a pity party, but didn't last long, my mom didn't let it. 3 months after that, again to my surprise, I graduated High School. Whoo hoo! Not really, I thought crap what now. I didn't know what was to come... or how fast it was all going to happen.
My mom took me to Spain for the summer, oh how much I missed the US, or so I thought at that point. In  a way I think my moms instinct told her to spend time with me, because I was going to spread my wings and fly a lot sooner than she thought. I've always craved to be independent and to be on my own, or I thought I did. That August after I got back I moved from my mom's house to Springfield, Ky, where Trevor lived. Against my mothers will of course, I thought I was ready. Got a job, a car, and apartment, and was in love. Everything I wanted eh?
6 months after  I moved, Trevor and I decided to get married. No, this wasnt something I had planned. But at this point the word marriage just had a stable homey feel to it, I wanted that. I was on a roll already right? Why stop now?..... A month after we got married, Trevor and I found out we were expecting. Was I scared? again no. I was getting everything I knew I always wanted, a little quicker than I had planned. Everything happening so quickly was a bad thing. It made me believe things happen when you want them.
A month after I found out I was pregnant I lost my " great" job. The one thing that made me feel safe was my job. I had been able to do everything I wanted because I had a good job and didn't have anything to worry about. Not anymore, things stopped happening in the blink of an eye, I had to learn patience. Still learning...... Now where does chameleon play into this? Well, I feel like in the last two years all my shades have been exposed at once.

I've had to adjust over and over again. Yes some by choice, but some just because " stuff happens"..... That is why I started this blog. So I can track my journey from now on. Had I blogged the past two years, well I would have a book by now. Now that I have time and am aware of what is going on around me. I want to share my thoughts....
Plus, waiting for this baby, actually waiting for something is driving me crazy.... I need to vent.
