Hi Everyone,
It's been a little while but things with Me have been really great. Life has been busy!! I have been in the phase of "things settling down" for the past 8 weeks or so. The last 17 months have been CRAZY. Obviously my world was turned upside down with the diagnosis in November of 2012. Then the next many months I was trying to balance my health, family and career. Then Sean and I decided to get a divorce. Then I began my life as a single parent which included a move. Nevertheless, I've been busy! But, I can humbly say I am more blessed than I desrve and I am happy.
The past 8 weeks or so have been a little difficult. I was on a high in December after finding out I am officially cancer free and the newness of living alone again (when I don't have the kids) "settled"down a bit too.....another new phase began, I felt a bit lonely. Don't get me wrong, I am not actually lonely. I stay busy with Ava and Liam (when they are with me), work, I exercise a lot and I try to see friends as often as I can. I think it has just been the reality of this new life settling in. One great lesson cancer taught me is how to quickly become comfortable with things I can not control. I still feel normal emotions...... I can just process through them much faster than I ever had in the past. I'm enjoying my life now that it has slowed to a "normal" pace.
I started the 100happyday challange. You can follow my 100 days on Instagram if you'd like. My username is Jenesak and #Jwhappydance should bring up all of the photos so far. It is such a good way to find at least one thing a day to be happy about. I have no trouble at all doing this and often find it difficult to just choose one a day.

Also, Monday was my 33rd birthday:-) I had an amazing day and feel so grateful for all of the birthday celebrations and birthday wishes.
Lastly, I am beyond excited and feel extremely blessed to announce that after over 9 years with Merck I have accepted a position with another company. I am no longer going to be in the pharmaceutical sales field and will be transitioning over to medical device wtih an incredible company. I am so thankful for this opportunity and can not wait to begin this new journey.
