Talk about a Dizzy Duck...

So I have been away for awhile. Not that I went anywhere or did anything. I have just been far, far away in a land in my own head. It has been about 6 months or so since my last blog and life has just been crazy. Some good, some bad, some ups and some downs. Life's just that way, isn't it?

I lost my job in August as I was out on disability and the company could no longer hold my position. Although, I just found out yesterday that the team I supervised was outsourced to India and I probably would have been out of a job anyway. My state disability ran out in mid-October and to date I am still fighting for my SSI. I lost my medical insurance on the first of September and currently have none of my numerous medications or my diabetic testing supplies. Currently I have NO income and am just about as financially stressed out as I can be. It has been a rough 6 months and I see many more coming, but hey, let's focus on the positive.

I do have a new wonderful man in my life and he has been such a blessing. I have the love I have always desired and we are truly happy and comfortable together despite the financial hardships. He is so very supportive and encouraging and loving! There is a down side though...He is a duck hunter!!! How very ironic that Lucy and I begin a blog called Dizzy Ducks and we are both attached to duck hunters. Hmmm... We're keeping things on the down-low until duck season is over. Ha ha ha...

After months of discussion and researching, Lucy and I are going to start our own business. We are going to start a Virtual Assistant Service and are so excited to be on this new adventure. I was telling her today that I had a starting point and a list of things we needed to accomplish in order to get started but I have been doing more and more research every day and am just completely overwhelmed at this point. We have so much information to read and so many things to accomplish that my head is just spinning.

I wake up in the morning thinking about what needs to be done, I spend my entire day researching and then I toss and turn all night thinking about the overwhelming task at hand. I think I'm beginning to get nauseous... so, let's just tackle the simple task of coming up with a name. Yeah right. Not so simple. Then a tag line. Even harder.

My head hurts just thinking about it all. I'm almost frozen with anxiety. Tomorrow is a new day and I will be right back at it though. Success awaits this Dizzy Duck! Fear and anxiety will not stop me!
