Update to date

Been trying to play catch up the last few days. It has been a difficult year for me so far, but I am determined to end with a bang! 

I'm still writing with Fiction Vortex. They are joining up with Story Shop now and I am certain they will change the reading/writing industry. I am just glad that I am apart of this movement.

Our family has gotten bigger. My new baby girl is such a spark in my sometimes dark existence. I am so happy to have her happy and healthy with her three siblings. Of course now I can't use my slogan "Military spouse mamma of three, trying to change her family tree, through writing." Just going to have to come up with something new and exciting.

I have good news about my depression as well. For so long it was just apart of me. Now I can see it fading. I tried a newish treatment for depression. Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is what it is called. A procedure that uses magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells in the brain. I wasn't sure if it would work to be honest. But with all the medications I have been on and the misery of living with depression growing, I decided to go with it.

I am glad I did. I may not notice big differences, but I have been told I laugh and smile more often, I enjoy things more, and I have gotten a bit more desire to do things. Hey, every little bit helps. I just didn't want to always be sad around my kids. Well anyone for that matter.

This will have to do for now. I know it is short and there wasn't much fun, knowledgeable insights shared. But I have a lot of stories I am working on, and we all know you would much rather read some great tales than hear me rant about something.
