Well, a few days ago, the 2012 Vegan Month of Food came to an end. I really enjoyed blogging about all the different things I was making. In a way, I wish EVERY month was a Vegan Month of Food. I'll continue blogging about the new recipes I'm trying and talking about those that become favorites.
On another note: I start a new job November 19. I am excited, but a little scared. It's going to be a promotion, and hopefully a new challenge. I have some worries, which I won't detail here, but I am praying about this, and people at my church are praying for me. I guess mostly I'm worried about a change since I've had my current job since 2008. I should be used to a change every three or four years since I was in the Navy and moved around pretty much at that interval (except for San Diego, which I loved and stayed for 7 years).
I had my annual mammogram this morning. Hopefully everything will be okay. Fingers crossed.
Tonight is Band Together to Fight Hunger. I will have to remember to bring a canned good or two so I can get in to watch the bands perform.

My other blog
I have an allrecipes.com blog that I use exclusively to talk about traditional recipes I have veganized and how they turned out. However, THIS blog is the one I post in all the time. I did have a blog at livejournal, here but I do not use that anymore. I realize most of what I post is about vegan cooking and living. But there are other things that go on.
For example, I was a professional clarinetist with the U.S. Navy fleet bands for fourteen years before I was forced to retire because of illness. Music is my lifeblood in many ways. I am just now, after several years, getting back into playing and teaching. Hopefully, I can eventually do music full time again. I like my job with the gov't, but I miss playing music SO MUCH. It is gratifying that three of my four children love to play instruments (Chris plays guitar, and Brian and Amy play clarinet).
I will say this, referring to being vegan: Since I have begun eating and living vegan, my depression has lifted a VERY great deal. I want to be alive again, and I feel like I am finally on the road to getting my life back.
