Exciting New Challenge - Quick Post

-
I know we are still a week away from the beginning of a new month - however, as a planner, I like to set things in motion ahead of time in order to stay ahead of my to do list. Does that make me weird? Nope - it makes me proactive. 

 So, next month, on top of the one off posts during the week AND Friday Favorites, there will be a 30 day blog challenge I will take part in for all of May! 

 Yes, there are 31 days in May. Days 1-30 will be from a list, day 31 will be a reflection day just in time for Friday Favorites! 

 Some of the posts will be short and sweet, some will be long and in depth. 

 I can't wait to share this with all of you in the coming month! Let's finish April really strong - with nothing but happiness and positivity - let the negativity GO. Away from your energy, away from your thoughts. 

 You are a gift, you have a gift. Use it. 💞

And you're who, exactly?

 I went out to dinner with a couple of girlfriends last night and we had quite a few great conversations. Sometimes you just need to go out with some friends who accept you for who you are, without expectations, and just be present.  To set the scene here - all of us are mid 30s. Two of the 3 of us that were out are married, and I am on my way to the altar in just over 6 months (holy crap), and two of the three of us are also moms (spoiler alert: I am not a mom...yet).  Out of respect of my friends' privacy I am not going to use names. However, I am going to say that these two women have been through hell and back in their lives at one point or another - and I am inspired by them all the time.  One of the conversations that came up after dinner was one about identity.  Often times, as life ebbs and flows for us, we adjust to who we are. This is an ongoing adventure. However - YOU get to decide who you are, what you are going to do with your life, who you are goi...

I was not a fan of The Office when it first started. I didn't give it a second thought. However, 5 years ago, a guy I was seeing told me to give it a try... so I did. To say I speak in fluent quotes from this show is an understatement. Mix that with my ability to quote F*R*I*E*N*D*S and well... you're in for a treat.  This isn't a discussion about how I have the ability to quote classic NBC TV shows. Sorry.. we can talk about that another post 😊 I had a conversation with one of my closest friends a few weeks back about how I feel left out and stuck while everyone is off living their lives with their person. She told me that she understands where I am coming from, but that I am living my life on my terms, and am a part of things a lot of people don't understand and it reignited the desire I've had to share WHY I am the way that I am.  For as long as I can remember, I have wanted to be a part of a large group of incredible people. I wanted to feel like I...

One year later...

  It's been a year since my life was completely turned upside down. 365 days since I experienced an attack by nature in what I thought was supposed to be my safe space.  Life has a wonderful way of putting you on the path you are meant to be on. There is no denying that - and I will die on that hill. After much reflection and healing, it’s time to talk some truth. I will be clear - this is not to put anything out in the world that wasn’t already there.  Healing can be messy. Healing can hurt while it is in process. Healing is not linear. Healing is not easy.  As just about every person in my life knows, last summer was a tumultuous one. I had plans - and God said “nah, this will be better.” Or so I choose to believe. To some, this may be seen as toxic positivity. Not the point, but there will always be people who see others’ healing as toxic positivity.  I didn’t believe it at the time, but now?  This is where I’m supposed to be.  I had a grand plan of...
