hmmm...it's been a while....

in my life now a few things have been going on:

* dad basically being forced to resign from his job
* mom being unemployed (since her employer died)
* sister decided to take the year off from college to stay at home
* church officially becoming a dying church
* working a lot
* figuring out what kind of person i really am
* not writing very much
* crying a lot
* trying to be a good example
* staying strong for my little sister

let's just say that things havent been working out as "planned."  it's one of those things i want to write so much but i have no idea where to start.
where i want to write a book about what is wrong with the Church (capital c, the united body), i want to write a memoir of our family (the tile to be "...and then you got angry" mostly stories about my brother), i want to write a poem about crying and confusion and how i dont know what life is bringing me to, but i really cant think of words.  

i guess i'm at a loss guys, i'm sorry....
