Still here



Hi, friends! I am not sure how many of you are out there, so maybe I should say hi, friend! Regardless, hello from a rainy morning in Arkansas. All of the trees are turning green and I am pretty sure that if I looked closely enough, I could see the grass doing the same. Winter has officially turned to spring and last weekend, I turned 32. I can't remember exactly when I started this blog. I think it was around the time I was 24 or 25 (no, I was... 23), which seems like a long time ago, but feels like a minute ago. I sit here contemplating what I have actually accomplished in that time span and wonder if I am in relatively the same place. Hmm? I baked bread yesterday. I'm married so I live with a boy full time. I still have the yoga studio I started when I was 27, I am back in school so maybe, I am actually aging in reverse? Oh and this summer, I will be an intern again! WOOHOO, see, I think I am aging in reverse. So, aside from my living situation and getting savvy at sticking to a grocery budget, here I am, THE SAME! Why don't people stop telling us, "well, when you get older... you will become a miraculous unicorn" because, I just don't think that's true, any of it. With that being said, I guess my point is, maybe we have to stop waiting around all the time. Maybe being right where we are at this moment isn't some mere stepping stone; maybe it matters more than we give it credit for and it's actually the moment that counts. Me, sitting here, sipping coffee, hanging with my dogs about to do more school work is where I am now, and while I thought that maybe by now, I would actually be some sort of celebrity journalist or even just have a perfectly organized pantry like I see in the movies, I wouldn't want to miss out on this moment.
