Impromptu post

Since I've had a wonderful amount of coffee and I have a lot of random things I feel like talking about.. this is going to be an impromptu post about anything on my mind. 

--One of my possible career choices with my degree is substance abuse counseling. One of my classes right now is Substance Abuse which requires us to go to one AA or NA meeting. I posted on Facebook asking if anyone knew of any open meetings, which made people question why I'm in a substance abuse program and I also received many messages about how wonderful it is that I'm getting help and that they had no idea...

--Speaking of substance abuse, I've noticed that a few of my shows I watched have shown a character taking adderall. On Nashville last week Scarlett takes them so she can stay up and write music and on Pretty Little Liars last and this week Spencer is taking them to stay up and investigate. 

--Do any of you watch Vanderpump Rules? I love it, but I honestly don't think I actually like anyone on that show. The drama is entertaining, but so obnoxiously out of hand. If you don't want your ex then why do you care what they're doing? If someone cheated on you and you can't go 4 minutes without freaking out about it then why be with them? 

--I have so many draft blog posts that are halfway done. I can't seem to focus enough to finish them. I feel like I've been a crappy blogger for months and months.

 --I'm addicted to Candy Crush. It's almost annoying. If I can't beat a level I'll play on my kindle or iPad. I might need an intervention.

 --I have to be to work in 1 hour, but I'm still not even close to getting ready. I honestly procrastinate way too much. Then I'm always rushing to get ready.

 --If you follow me on Twitter, you may have seen some of my tweets about how David and his friend watching a war movie. This was probably the most I've used Twitter in a month. I need to get back to social networking. 

 --I need to also start posting more photos, but I did post this super blurry picture of my man and I at the Red Wings game. It doesn't look blurry on my phone.. weird.

--Why can't it be easier to get ready? I'm jealous of dudes when it comes to this. Wah.

--You will see a post from me tomorrow! I promise. I have the day off!

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...

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...

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 ...
