It's been a difficult month, I have to say. I haven't made any progress on finding out where my daughter it and believe me, I've tried. I've used every kind of person search I know about but she must have known I would and hid herself accordingly. No phone records, change of address forms, or public documents at all. I wish I could just apologize and be done with this. But unfortunately that's not the way she wants it. Not that I'm giving up; au contraire my friends. My resolve has just been firmed up even more by my lack of success. I know I will find her. The next step is to use a background check on her place of employment and see if anyone there can give me information as to her whereabouts. One can only hope. Before I find her, however, I should drop a few pounds just to show I'm really serious about changing my life around. This might impress her. There's one small catch - I'm addicted to sweets. I'm going to start looking up junk food alternatives that don't suck because if I could just replace chocolate with raisins or something I think I would feel a whole lot better about stuff, even with all the setbacks.
