Remember that one time I made a new blog...

So I slacked a bit for the past month. Whoops! Getting back in the game of writing before tomorrow because tomorrow would mark a month since my last post. So let me update the world on what happened in the last month. Ready?

Around the time of my last post I started getting ready for a bridal shower I was throwing for my childhood bff Miranda. I was doing most everything by myself but I didn't mind because I love planning things like that. So the 29th was the actual event. I left on the 27th to meet up with the bride-to-be and spend part of that weekend with her before the shower that Sunday. 

So the shower went really well and it was an awesome weekend. I ended up staying till Monday morning and then drove back home which is a 2.5 hour trip. I then had only two days till I drove back for the weekend of wedding festivities. Got our nails done, moved her and the fiancĂ© into their new place, packed honeymoon bags, ran last minute errands and then had the rehearsal dinner. After the rehearsal dinner the bridesmaids and the bride all went to a hotel to stay the night before the wedding the next day. Probably the most fun I have had in a hotel room with girlfriends since high school. The wedding day came and everyone had separate plans for the day of except me so I spent the morning doing my own hair and makeup so I could being on the brides at 1:30pm for a 6pm wedding. It was a relaxing morning. The wedding came round and I was very happy with how her hair turned out after 2 hours. I almost lost it on stage with tears but did what I could to keep my composure. We danced the night away at the reception and then they were off! Funny enough I pulled out of the hotel I stayed at that night at the same time they did the next morning. We opened their gifts at the brides house and I kept track of everything. We then packed them up and sent them on their honeymoon. Phew. So weird to think that so many of my best of friends are getting married. I just had another childhood best friend text me 3 days ago to tell me she was engaged. I also have another wedding I'm in in less than a month! That'll come quick. 


Enough about weddings... I kinda regret giving that play by play because it may not be interesting to others but oh well... it is writ. 


I should be doing more searching when it comes to jobs. I don't want to end up in a complacent state of being. I will hate myself if that continues to happen. There's so much to life and I don't want to miss it. I have to look at it like searching for adventure. The adventure it out there I just have to trust that God is going to provide it and I need to believe in myself that I have the tools and have been prepared to seek out this adventure and be patient. That's a lot of things to do! Hard things too. It's easy when you have professors and deadlines to get things done even if you don't do them right away. I'm facing procrastination and beating my head against a wall to get my mindset straight. Yes, I've been busy but not busy enough to not be hunting for jobs or opportunities at all. Yesterday I sat in Barnes & Noble and about out-did myself with staring at a computer screen for 7 hours. I then came home and continued to work after dinner. Now realizing, I need to remember not to burn myself out with having to do everything or search everywhere at once. So I've gone to Target and I bought myself a teal and grey binder, some sheet protectors and dividers! Felt soooo good to buy some school supplies although i could have come up with other excuses why I needed so many other things that I really didn't need. Isn't that how it goes in Target? So currently my stomach is growling and I have a date with starbucks on my to do list. 

Day 2 of get my life together and stop being complacent... GO! Dear God, give me focus and strength!


Peace Home Skillets!
