Life Update – Bashful Weasel

Long time, no post! So a lot has happened in my life since the last time I posted on this blog. Everything that has happen has taken up all my time, which meant no time for blogging. Now that I am more settled in life I decided I should start blogging again because I’ve really missed it!

I originally started this blog as a way to deal with my anxiety and give my self some purpose and structure in my life. Due to my anxiety and depression I wasn’t able to get a job after graduating high-school, and I saw blogging as a way to escape that prison and maybe even someday turn it into a career, if I was lucky! But shortly after starting this blog a lot of great things happened to me, and I’m now in a much better place in my life and have a healthier state of mind! Whoop, Whoop. So here’s a list of everything that’s happened in my life in these last couple of years:

Moved to Oregon with my parents – This was a win-lose situation because I initially didn’t want to go and the property we ended up buying was way out in the boonies. No internet, dirt road, isolated from the world. It wasn’t the best for someone like me who is a hermit but, this life change led to a lot of other great changes in my life!
Got a job, whaaaat – I started out just doing paperwork in the engineering department of my company , easy peasy stuff. I did so well, that I moved on to being our primary parametric modeler for all our products, ayooo!
Moved out on my own – A year after living with my parents and saving up money I’m finally living on my own (with roommates) for the first time! Crazy fast internet, freedom, and independence! I’ll make sure to do a room tour post later on.
New member of the cat family – His name is Pluto and he is the tiniest and cutest thing! He was originally my sisters but she had to move and couldn’t keep him. I fell in love with him and now he is an adorable addition to our little cat family.
Reduced my social anxiety and gained social skills – Having a job and living on my own has really forced me to be more independent and be more of an adult. I’m constantly interacting with others at work and driving all over the place. These are two things I pretty much avoided 3 years ago.
