lydia@marie-1958 : MyBlogHer Profile

Hello! I am new to blogging and the blogosphere. I was born in New Orleans, but I currently live in the Texas Hill Country with my husband and Mother, as well as two cats, a very fat cat named "Charlie Moe" and his BFF "Chevy." I am mother to three and g'mom to two, Vanessa and Daisy. Until 2/19/04, I was a practicing litigation attorney dealing with fibromyalgia and migraines. Since then, I've been an attorney on 'inactive' status, using writing to deal with the many limitations, changes and feelings brought by the illness. I have been at a standstill for too long now, but I am ready to move forward on my path.

I started a life blog as a way to purge my mind of the relentless thoughts, ruminations and senseless info that fills it. It serves as a small part of my journey-another avenue for me to write down my feelings and perhaps share them with others so that they might know the authentic me. The me that enjoys reading, yoga, spending time with family and friends, cooking, sitting on my deck as a cool breeze wafts by, watching the sunset, watching a moonlit sky peppered with stars, laughter, life, giving without expectation, and so much more.

There comes a journey...And there also comes the urge to write it down, to bear witness to our experience, to share our questions and the insights that come from questioning. ~Christina Baldwin. My blog serves that purpose.  I have a life to dissect and an inner world to explore. Come join me at http://www.seekingmyquerencia.me.
