Things aren't as bad as they seem

I just read over my last few posts and really let everything sink in. They're really negative.

I'm generally a happy person, even when faced with adversity. It's primarily work that has me all riled up, as Julian put it. I'm trying to solve that situation by finding a different job with the same company.

Overall, things in my life are okay. I have a roof over my head, clothes on my back, and I'm able to provide the necessities and some luxuries for my family. Things could be much worse, and I really have a lot to be thankful for.

I have a wonderful, loving husband who is willing to follow me anywhere around the world if it would make me happy. He's already shown that by moving here to be with me.

I have a beautiful, healthy son. It's been a joy over the last couple of years watching the transformation from helpless newborn to independent toddler. I can't believe that he will be 3 in April. The time has really flown by. It seems like only yesterday that I told Julian that I was pregnant. Enzo has put things into a different perspective. Being with him makes me see the world differently. This is a guy who had a blast last weekend seeing ducks and walking around at the state Capitol building. He's still talking about it, and says he wants to go again. I'm thinking about taking him out tomorrow evening to look at Christmas lights around town. I'm sure he would enjoy that.

I'm also excited about the prospect of starting anew in Buenos Aires. I'm trying to get a timeline drawn up as far as what I need to do to get there and when.

So, just to reassure anyone who's worried about all this negativity swirling around me, it's really just me venting. I still see the big picture, and things are about as good as they're going to get.
