So, I Started a Blog.

I've always been envious of bloggers; their inspiration, dedication, and creativity has always been so intriguing to me. It's also the main reason I've deterred from starting my own blog. I mean really, it's kind of a big commitment, to periodically check in and share your thoughts with the world (or maybe just yourself, depending on your following).

I like the idea of being able to dump out, organize and make sense of the contents of my thoughts, documenting every trouble, idea, and nonsense notion. Some people have blogs dedicated to different areas of life; religion, weight loss journeys, running, wedding plans, politics…My blog won’t be about any of these things but will be about all of these things…

This blog is about me, about my life…the good, the bad, and the ugly.

Consider that your warning…

There are times when my mind spins with thoughts that I have no idea what to do with…So I Started a Blog

So...How's Married Life?

I cannot believe how often I get asked this question! Makes me wonder if there is something I am missing or not doing that I should be doing. We made it two weeks, so that's good!

It's easier to say something smart and laugh lightly. The truth is, I am proud of my two week marriage. Marriage isn't easy and every day should be celebrated. Adam and I both knew what we were getting into when he proposed and I said yes. So these obstacles that will show themselves repeatedly throughout our marriage are very familiar. Do I love the fact that he spends 18 out of 24 hours in the day working? It's not my pref...

Love Equation

I cried for days when I found out my Dad and stepmother were expecting a child. I couldn’t believe that they had done this intentionally, were my brother and I not enough? I was so upset for so long…probably about nine months. Then my new little brother was brought into this world and every feeling of anger and resentment left me at that moment. How can you hate something so precious and innocent? Twelve years later I find myself at my youngest brother’s birthday party at the MOA. His face lights up when he realizes I am there. He is excited to introduce me to his friends. The ones who have already met me ask, “Do you remember me??” The ones who haven’t ask, “Are you the one who is getting married?” “Can I see your wedding ring?” He wants me to ride the rides with him. They all want me to ride the rides with them. Our time together, running around the park from one ride to the next goes by in a flash and suddenly I am saying goodbye. He whines when...
