Christmas. Dates. Updates.

I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas! I absolutely did! Other than being sick.


Yes.. we had to wear ugly Christmas sweaters at work.
This was taken after work. Excuse my hot mess look.


 I was nervous about Christmas this year. It was the first Christmas in almost for ever that I didn't have a significant other. That makes me sound like a serial dater, just keep in mind that many of those years were spent with the same person. I really enjoyed having a polish Christmas Eve and spending Christmas at the casino. I was completely spoiled this year and received so many gifts that I was more than grateful for.





Lately, everyone keeps giving me crap that I haven't gone on dates. I'm not really into that whole dating thing right now. I feel like I've really enjoyed doing things on my own time and not having to answer to someone. So I decided to go on a date.

It was actually really nice. He picked me up, we headed out his way. He took me to his yatch club so we could see Lake Saint Clair. It was dark already, really windy and cold. The waves we're intense! Although I have a fear of looking at open bodies of water (more of a fear of feeling small), it was really beautiful. I'm sure I said, "this is terrifying!" at least 20 times.

Then we went out to eat and after got some frozen yogurt, which I've been craving for a few months! After hanging out for a little while at his house, I was feeling exhausted so we headed back towards my house. It's a pretty good distance between our houses, but I was spoiled and we blasted Sam Hunt in his truck almost the entire way.

I suppose I can admit that everyone was right and that I should allow myself to go out. I have had a good time overtime someone has convinced me to get out. However, it's so much more difficult than it was in the past. I feel like my guard is up 150% and it's not just me being shy like I normally am at first.

Anyways, that's an update on that whole thing.

I'm really excited to start feeling better and getting back to a normal workout routine. I hate feeling weak and exhausted every second of the day. I ended up buying the Fitbit Charge because I felt like it was time to upgrade from the Flex. 

I'll be doing my best to work on more posts! It's been nice to be back, even if it hasn't been often.

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 ...
