It's been a while, so hello again friends

It is funny how life can be sometimes.

Three weeks ago I was beginning to dread the upcoming weeks.  Mother's Day was a little more than a week away.  Mom's birthday was almost four weeks away. My health was declining from the inability to control my arthritis pain.  In short, I was in a bad place.

Then, a very nice thing happened.  The girl who I had long thought funny, cute, and just my type?  She took that leap of faith and asked if I was interested in a seeing a concert.  Cue the world suddenly going off-tilt.  Did the girl I had the crush on just ask me out?  It appeared so.

Since then I have had an interesting few weeks.  I got fired, had a pain relapse, missed a payment on my VISA card since the reminder was on the work computer, had my first Mother's Day without Mom, and got yet another new neighbor that smokes like a chimeny (all three sides now for those of you counting at home). 

But you know, it really doesn't matter at this point.  Why?  It seems I have a date on Monday and that makes me everything okay for now.

Oh and I have decided to revive karmaville for a while. But you probably figured that one out on your own.  So, hello friends and welcome back.  I have missed you.

Hey Scott. Good to see the blog being revived. Some interesting tidbits there that we hadn't heard, too!

I hope the date goes well.

Been wanting to get together with you... interested in lunch one day soon? Maybe early next week? Let me know.

I'm glad you're back. I've been thinking about you and hoping you're well.

Yay! I love your writing, and look forward to more of it, even if it is just in bits and pieces.

And mhaughey reminded me: didn't you used to work for a personal finance type nonprofit? (Is that where you just got fired from?) I'd love to chat with you about this via e-mail, if you have time...
