Ok, I must admit something. I am a much better blog follower than I am a blog writer. I shared this piece of information with a few friends this weekend and the response was "well I used to follow you until you quit writing". So thank you miss Katie for being my inspiration. I intend to come back to the blog world in full swing.
I guess I have just thought that there were only a few people that read this (love you mom), and that no one really cared if or when I update my posts. But I have to remember why I started this blog...ultimately it was for myself. As a place for me to get away; an escape from my daily to-dos; a way for me to stop and smell the roses and remember the good times that happen to me and what inspires me every day.
A lot has happened to me since August. I am transitioning into a new position at work, moved apartments, have been on a few trips, seen a lot of good movies (so we might have to skip the summer movie wrap up I said to look forward to in my last post and go straight to the Oscars since they are this Sunday). I have also inherited some new TV addictions, (hello Friday Night Lights even though I was two years late, Up All Night, and Homeland to name a few). I got a flat screen (Hello 2012! I will keep it to myself and Casey that it was a hand-me down flat screen), had a few good friends get engaged and married, and a good friend of mine opened her own business. Sadly, I also just recently endured the loss of my grandfather, which has been really difficult. I have been thinking a lot about his life and what a great man he was, which has also inspired me to write more.
With all that said, it is late and I couldn't sleep, hence this post. I wanted to just take a moment to welcome you back if you have missed me (although most of the 15 people that read this see me on a daily basis). I promise to have a real post later this week when I have a few spare moments to write.
Until then, Ciao for now!
