Thus far.....

It may be a bit premature to make notes on the progress of my 2015 goals but since one of them was to blog more regularly I figured I would kill two birds with one stone (hopefully the birds are chickens that I will then eat because otherwise this saying is unnecessarily violent,  but I digress) via this post.

Here are a couple of things of note in regards to the goals:

Went to the library and picked up a new book entiled "Nine Inches" or something close to that. Since we are already half way through the month I have got to get cracking.  The plus side to this is that I am a fast reader and the book in this case is only about 300 pages long.  Score!

I have been hanging with various groups of friends recently and going on dates so I have made the utmost effort that if I am walking out of my house (and not going to work which doesn't count since I wear a uniform) I look great and put together. Originally the goal was to look decent but since joining instagram (@alwysmoe) & following fashion bloggers I have realized the potential found in my own closet! Plus I did a winter cleaning and got rid of a box full of clothes, shoes & accessories I no longer wear.

Touching on the above topic of cleaning out my closet, this month my treat to myself has been some new wardrobe pieces. Partly because I had a little spending cash, partly because I found a few new clothing websites that offer stuff for REAL cheap (10dollarmall.com, waiting on the delievery before commenting on the quality, fit, value etc.) to try out and partly because I got rid of so many items. I needed to add some basic pieces as well as a few statement pieces back into my closet.

Jim and I have had dinner & gone to the movies in the time I started focusing on the goals.  I have also invited him to a few things I have been too even though he couldn't make it. So far so good. The key to this goal is consistency.

I have planned a group event for the end of the month and am slightly contemplating a double dose weekend.  Right now on the 31st (down to the wire I know) I planned for us to go play whirlyball & laser tag.  On the following day is the Superbowl & I was thinking of hosting a small party. The problem with that is the late notice.  Most people probably have plans but what about those that don't?  I'll run it by Jim maybe he knows of a group of friends who already have plans and we can piggyback on those.  Or I could throw a valentine's day party since it's my FAVORITE! 

It's been good catching up on my own personal life, hope you enjoyed it!

Until next post!

Here we go again!

Another holiday season is upon us! Another time were I am torn about how much I spend versus how much I save. Bah humbug. Alas hopefully I will have several epiphanies before December 14th.

Just gotta be me

So I went home this weekend...I had so much fun...I miss my family so much sometimes, but while I was home I learned something about myself I can't live MY life for my family. It's time for me to venture out into to the world with the training they have given me and do my own thing...therefore I'm getting a tattoo...this is just a sign of my personal growth and freedom..God forbid my parent trip but like I said this isn't about rebelling it's about doing ME

Three states, One Girl

No, this is not the beginning of a bad joke. It's actually the beginning of a cool trip. I had a conference in Boston a couple of weeks ago. That was my first time in MA, while there I took the opportunity to check off a couple of additional NE states that I'd never been too. Depending on who you ask NY may or may not be considered NE but in any case previously I'd only been as far north as CT. With this trip I also saw NH & ME. I actually had to look up the abbreviation for Maine because I'd never been and couldn't remember what it was 😅.  Coastal Maine was beautiful. I've obviously been on the east coast waters before but seeing it as a lush green forestscape was another thing entirely. I definitely see why it's the setting of so many Stephen King stories, it's hauntingly beautiful. New Hampshire was a bit more rustic than I expected in the most delightful way. Massachusetts (Boston) was fun to explore and I spent so much time doing something I ne...
