today I...

I am a little sad that my job is ending
It's been a long time coming but "unemployment" is a little scary
I am wishful..wanting to know all the answers
but I am trying to be content knowing that there has to be a plan for me
I am grateful for all the opportunities I've been given
and hope to always realize how lucky I am.
I am so blessed to have a loving, caring and wonderful family
their support and guidance have meant a great deal to me.
I wouldn't feel safe without them right now.
I really love Matthew.
He stayed up late editing my grad school essays with me and didn't complain once.
He means so much to me.
I am grateful for my life
and I'm going to try my hardest to accept the uncertainty
and dream of all the possibilities and somehow make them a reality.

Thank you to all my readers. You are the sweetest group of people and I'm so honored to be a part of your lives. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for being here!

today I...

would love to be riding a bike
or eating yummy caramels
better yet baking this yummy chocolate peanut butter cake
or shopping for all things bird inspired
I'd love to have a to-do list with everything checked off
with not one thing I need to do, but things I want, and can, do
I want to playing with a puppy, going on walks and throwing balls
I still want this little one
I would love to have a picnic with bread and cheese
and drink some fresh, homemade lemonade


But since that will all have to wait, I'll settle with working another 2 1/2 hours and then packing for San Diego. It's time for a much needed girls weekend with Lizzie and Hanna!

yay for the weekend!
