It has been brought to my attention that I've not updated my blog in some time. I forgot that I needed to satisfy my cousins' hunger for my daily information :-) Ok, here's a quick rundown of things, but I'll remember to be more persistent at writing.
Actually, it hasn't been that eventful in the last few weeks. My cousin Kapil is currently living with me and has been for about six weeks. (Technically, he's not my cousin, but a cousin through marriage.) So, we've been trying to take advantage of what Denver has to offer, especially, to give him a sense of the area so he can decided to move here at the beginning of next year. He is going to be taking off this Monday, back to Chicago.
I recently signed the loan documents to refinance my house and to transfer the title in my name. While it's not official yet, the house is pretty much in my name alone. This is a good thing because I get some peace of mind now. I pretty much have free reign to do whatever I want with the house in the future, without having to deal with her. I don't plan on having any contact with her, ever...Most of my close friends and family already know how I feel about that so I don't need to go into any more detail there.
Anyways, so that's all taken care of now. Of course, I'm in the midst of my second round of buyer's remorse. Maybe it was the first round because when the house was purchased the first time, I knew it was the right thing to do with the circumstances. Now, the circumstances are different. So, I will go through my bit of remorse. I guess I've just been focusing a bit on the negatives of living in Denver. It is still fairly new to me. I don't have a lot of single friends here. I haven't met as many Indian women (or any Indians, for that matter) here as I would like. I'm going to be in a little bit of debt, having to pay all of the lawyer fees and the credit card bills that have piled up. Argh...it's not a fun thing to think about. When you're sitting at home by yourself, you tend to think about those things. But, I also know that it'll take time to make new friends. By mid next year, I should be fully out of debt (minus the mortgage and car). Things will be more stable.
I'm going to Detroit to attend a family friend's wedding (and hang out with family) and then Philadelphia to meet up with some friends. So, that's a good little break. And then when I come back, I have a bunch of stuff to start working on, which will keep me busy.
During the last month, I went camping with Kapil and with other friends. The fresh, crisp air felt very renewing. And that's where I basically am now. It's a restart. I am moving on with my life, and it's exciting to think about. I just need to maintain a positive attitude about my life and not think about all of the hurt that still rears its ugly head once in a while. It only takes time.
In the mean time, I'm here and there...
