So the last time I posted a blog was just after Thanksgiving when I came out to my parents. Since then things have been up and down, but now after about three weeks or so I can say that it is mostly up. My mom said she was okay with it at first, but it seamed to change after I left. I guess she started crying for a couple of days after. That was one thing I really did not want to do, but sometimes you have to do what you have to do. It wasn't going to be any easier on my mom if I told her last year, or this year, or even next year. I personally am doing well with it now. Now that my mom and dad and sister know, and soon after my mom found out, all of the family everywhere knew, so I don't have to hide any part of myself any more.... at least when it comes to my personal life. Work on the other hand still is for the most part in the dark.
I am actually writing this blog in the work truck on the way to a job. The group of people I am working with this week all pretty much know, and they have expressed that many times. Most in a fun and positive way.
So yesterday I was walking through walmart looking for digital cameras for the family. I was walking by the from registers when I saw the bosses son. Luckily I saw them first and had an opportunity to quickly tuck my necklace under my teeshirt. I don't know why I am so afraid of working finding out, but I fear it will have adverse effects on my career there.
Other then that things have been going good. Still don't have anyone that I can consider a boyfriend, but now that I am out to everyone there is no reason why I can't meet someone and be able to share my experiences with the ones that are closest to me.
Thanks for listening,
Kris
