I’m settling in nicely here in Conover, NC, absolutely loving my new place and the gorgeous springtime, feels like summer time, weather. And to further prove this was the right choice for my new home, the flowers are in bloom and they are all..pink! If that doesn’t scream girly girl, I don’t know what does…. Continue Reading
Walking the Fine Line between Exciting and Scary
I know, I know…I’ve been silent for a bit. I’m so sorry, but transitioning from a temporary home in VA to a permanent home in NC was a bit more overwhelming than I thought it was going to be. I love my new place, and after this past weekend I pretty much have all the… Continue Reading
Surreal Reality
Psst. Can I be totally honest with you? My life has seemed pretty surreal for awhile now. And I’m sitting here trying to figure out just when life began feeling like a dream.

Is There a Grinch for Valentine’s Day?
Tomorrow is Valentine’s Day. Luckily I’ve been spending a lot of time working from my hotel room in North Carolina and haven’t had to deal too much with all the red chocolate filled hearts and sappy, romantic commercials. Do I sound like the Grinch? Sorry, but being single on a holiday specifically focused on couples… Continue Reading
My Kind of Snow…
I woke up this morning and as I was going about my morning routine of making the bed, applying moisturizer after my shower and getting dressed I was suddenly struck by the fact that behind my closed blinds the light seemed abnormally bright. Not in a ‘the sun is out’ kind of way, but in… Continue Reading
