Your In My House

Every single aspect of my life is different than what I imagined for myself as a child, or even a teenager.

I never expected to leave the Mormon church and become a “godless liberal”.

I never expected to marry a man that was the total OPPOSITE of my “list” (but could not be more perfect for me…)

I never expected to lose my career and go back to school at 26 years old.

I never expected to be disabled.

I never expected to be on the receiving end of care, instead of being a caregiver.

It is not what I expected, that is for sure, but I still consider myself pretty damn lucky to have broken free from the church, to have found a wonderful husband and incredible caregiver, to have the opportunity to further my education and change career paths.

Life is different, but different is not always bad.
