Since August...

If I'm looking at it right, it's been since August that I've even logged in. it's been since August I've even thought about pulling up a blank page and typing my mindless thoughts away. it's been since August that I've jumped. it's been since august and well, it feels great.

Since August I have;
  • Been on a Charleston blitz trip filled with a simply perfect "The Notebook" tour, Hootie and the Blowfish x2, met up with friends and felt sweet southern breezes
  • Moved to VA
  • Finalized décor for the new apartment
  • Oh yeah, moved into a new apartment
  • Worn jeans and a sweatshirt for the first time in probably a year
  • Accepted a job offer
  • Visited family in PA for a weekend of love and laughter
  • Started a new job
  • Bought a new car
Now, that may not seem like a lot (uh.. just kidding) but this weekend will be filled with Gamecocks, relaxing and cruising with the windows down and it couldn't be more enticing. Gone are the weekends where Friday came and solo nights at the apartment would ruin anyone's mood. Thankfully gone are the Mondays where I needed to just get up and do it all over again, only looking forward to a few months down the road for the next trip "home" or down to Ft. Meyers , or maybe a visitor to brighten my spirits.

Since August I have closed my eyes, taken a leap of faith and gotten completely out of my comfort zone. Since August I have realized that family, friends and the love in between will get you through any scary or difficult time all the while teach you how to handle it with grace.

Since August, I've felt like a little bit more "me" and it feels great.
