I am new to this bloggin' thing!

Well, I'm not exactly sure on where to start... but perhaps i should just start with what's going on in my life at this point and time.
Well, I am a Recreational Therapist, and I'm actually falling in love with my job (after some previous hesitations). I have the cutest office--it's not much larger than a closet, but it's MINE and that's all that really counts! My office is my relaxation point in my life; it's mine and I can go there and do whatever I need and want to do! Sometimes I stay late at work just to catch my breath, or to just compile myself.
I have recently discovered that I'm failing to utilize my coping skills that I have found to deal with feeling anxious and depressed; so, I'm trying to get back into the "swing of things." I find myself having troubles falling asleep, but end up sleeping many hours (too many actually) into the next day!
I am fascinated by mental illnesses and I surprise myself with how many various skills and coping techniques I have been able to utilize in helping others (and myself) and to better understanding Mental illness in general.
I hae been trying to get into a social work program and have applied at Metro State, College of St. Scholastica and UWRF-- I guess I will see where I will be in the fall.
Well, I really didn't want this to be this long, but just some things that have been weighing heavy on my mind lately.
