First Blog Ever

ORIGINALLY POSTED ON 12/23

Well, since this is my first blog and even though the chances of anybody reading it are slim, I thought I would talk a little bit about myself.My name is Sarah, I'm 23 years old and I live in Holly, MI. I've been married for almost 2.5 years and I have a 15 month old daughter, Bailey. I grew up in Southern Maine where I met my (future) husband online, much to my parents chagrin. I moved to his hometown in 2005, simply transferring my job from one office to another, very easy. We got married in September of 2006 and I was pregnant three months later.

I work in the insurance industry as an Underwriters assistant. I hope to one day move up to become a full underwriter. I need to finish my insurance classed before that can happen. Life is a little crazy lately and my education has fallen to the side.

In January 2007 my mother committed suicide. It is something that I still struggle with and especially during the holiday season. I find myself dwelling on it and what life would be like if she had not taken her life. I wish that she could have known her granddaughter because I know her life would have been bright enough with her in it to keep my mom alive. At least I'd like to hope that. If anything good as come out of her traumatic death, it is that mine and my fathers relationship has become closer and stronger than it ever has.That is pretty much my life in a nutshell. I decided to create this blog not because my life is that interesting or exciting to anyone else, but to have a place to vent and speak my mind. Even if it is just for me.
