A Year Reflection

Welp, I've been slacking on my blog.  I get it, I need to commit to a certain amount of postings per a week or something.  But I'm a busy girl, so you can't be too mad right ?

Today is the last day of 2015.  A lot of people are off from work, planning their New Years Eve bash.  I'd like to take a moment though and reflect on all of the changes and events through 2015.  I've done some growing up this year.  I got married.  I found new friends.  I've become more in tune with listening to my body and mind for how much I can handle and when I need help.  There's a lot of growing pains in being 24, but the thing is, with a good support system, a good head on your shoulders, nothing can really keep you down.

What a week.... Beginning to reflect on 2015

There I go, slacking again. This week has been crazy with work and this weekend lead to no rest as well.  I had friends over for a cookie-making, holiday hang out party.  It went pretty well.  Everyone seemed to have a great time decorating cookies, making crafts and just getting out of the house.  I began to think maybe we could do something every season or so.  That way everyone can get out of the house.

There are roughly 3 weeks left of 2015. I have been reflecting on 2015 and thinking of all the changes, challenges and good times.  It seems that 2015 flew by.  I married my best friend.  I actually took a vacation from work, for once in my life.  I realized how much I can handle in my professional life and how I have had to grow as a working professional.  I have seen struggles with my family and have noticed changes in my relationship with my mom and my siblings.  I've seen my friends change, some for the better and some for the worse. I think the one thing that I have learned in 2015 is the ones who are consistent in your life are the ones who you mean the most to.  People in your life will always change.  Fortunately I have found my best friend, my husband will always be by my side, through thick and thin.  That's what has gotten me through this past month and will continue to get me through the rest of my life.

Not in the Christmas Spirit

I haven't been able to blog for the past week or so. Work has gotten pretty crazy and has consumed my life.  However, it is dying down once again.  Thank goodness.
December has officially come.  Everyone around me seems so excited about the holiday season.  All decorating their houses with trees, lights, decorations.  Mine, not so much.  I have tried so many things to get into the holiday spirit; going decoration shopping with my friends, organizing a Christmas cookies party, buying gifts for friends and family and donating a gift to Angel Tree.  All things that would normally make someone say, "Yay, its Christmas time." Me on the other hand, I'm starting to act like Scrooge. I see decorating currently as a way for my dog to destroy Christmas items.  I see lights as something that I will have to take down in a month.  To me right now, the Christmas season is overrated.  Which is sad.  Normally, I'm excited about the holiday season, but this year something is different.  Who knows, maybe I'll get into the Christmas spirit soon.
