1. What is something you have wanted to do but are afraid of?
Get married and have kids. I’ve always wanted to get married and have babies.. I’m like wedding and baby obsessed! I know every detail of my wedding and all my future children’s names. But, at the same time it terrifies me. Completely scares the crap out of me. Marriage is like BAM, huge.. and I’m worried I’ll feel like I should have waited longer and experienced more adventures without kids. Now, before you start thinking I’m planning on having a wedding and babies anytime soon.. I’m not. At all. Honestly, by the time I think I’ve done everything I wanted to without kids.. I probably will be too old to have them.

2. Where do you see yourself in 5 years?
With Lucas Blaze. In Nashville, Tennessee. Working at St. Jude.

3. What are you looking forward to before the end of 2012?
I’m not sure. I can’t wait for my next birthday. I’ll be back in Nashville. With my lovely man… and this time my parents! I’m dying for our parents to see how perfect Nashville is since we’ll be living there in a few year.

4. What are your hopes for your blog?
To keep on blogging! I want to post more of my own posts and less linkups. I hope to reach out to more people. I want to keep blogging for me. But, I want more readers who really care about the things I blog about. I also hope to design my own layout that is actually fab. I’m sure it will never happen.. but, eventually I’ll give it a shot.

5. Do you always see yourself living in your current town/city?
HELL TO THE NO! I don’t mind where I live. Michigan is a great place. I grew up in a great city.. but, I know that I was made for Nashville. I felt so at home when I was there. It felt right.

6. What is your morning routine?
I don’t really have one. When I wake up I frantically check my phone. Then I lay there thinking about how I want to go downstairs and get coffee. Then I lay there and check social media. Then I work on getting ready. I have awful ADD so if I don’t take my medication before I get ready (which I don’t most of the time) then it takes me forever to get ready. I’ll start on something and then get distracted. Plus, I don’t really like routines. I don’t even have a set schedule.. so some days I’m up really early and others I sleep in after getting off work at 330am.

Now or never... (QUICK UPDATE)

I wasn't lying when I said that I wanted to get back into blogging. However, life took multiple turns and I've been too busy to sit down at my computer and produce a decent blog post. It can't hurt to fill in anyone that still reads my blogs, but might not closely follow me on social media. After TWO years of being single and not being into the idea of dating anyone, I'm actually in a relationship. I know at the beginning of a relationship it's expected to be in the state that you feel like you've never been happier. The difference is, I've known my boyfriend for 11 years. When we were young, we'd always act like a couple. We never had a "title" back then no matter how many times we reconnected. Seven months ago, he finally moved back home. I was so excited to have him back in my life. Then I realized that I wasn't okay with just being his friend. After about 5 months of blowing him off and him giving up trying to hang out, I finally ex...

Thoughts from an ex-blogger..

My desire to get back to writing has been so strong lately. I can't seem to figure out if I want to blog again. At the same time, I REALLY want to blog again. I've found comfort in my privacy. This comfort has made me uncomfortable with openly sharing details of my life. However, blogging always was there to provide me with an outlet to express my thoughts, feelings and emotions. The people I was able to connect with through blogging was always an incredible bonus. I didn't want to blog when I realized that people that I don't want to be part of my life were reading my blog posts. During this time I also stopped being active on Twitter and Instagram. I felt that it was unfair to me that specific people were able to catch up on my life via social media. There are many issue I face with returning to my blog. I need to allow myself to step outside of my comfort zone of keeping my life private. I need to be okay with the fact that some people, that shouldn't be ...

Sleepy Momma

I did plan on posting this previous week and the week before.. however, I've been so incredibly exhausted and busy. I guess that's a great way of putting, welcome to mom life! To be completely honest, I'm so happy with where I'm at in life right now. Yes, there are things that are difficult to deal with and I know some of those things will always be hard. For a while I wished that I could go back well over a year ago and made a different decision. I don't wish that now because I've grown so much and gained things I could never give up. My strength, my motivation and my happiness is at an all time high. It feels amazing. In other news...  I finally got a kitten! She's such a sassy girl, but she can be the most loving thing at times! When she wakes up and I'm next to her or when I pick her up, she grabs my cheeks and kisses me.  The bottom left photo is a result of a playful kitty that needs her nails trimmed. If you foll...
