What Am I Doing?

What am I doing here? That seems to be the question I MUST answer in my life because I always seem to find myself wondering what the answer is. Until I figure it out I guess I will just continue doing what I am doing. Time will bring answers, of this I am convinced!:)

Summer is weird because my sense of time seems to slip away. It seems like school has been out for forever, when really it's only been a week or so. It seems like my life has sort of stopped, while everyone else is still moving on towards whatever it is they are working towards. I feel like I am watching everyone else live their lives, grow and progress, go on adventures, and experience new things, while I sit on the other side of the glass, waiting for my turn. 
Don't get me wrong, I still think I am right where I need to be right now. And I am thoroughly enjoying having the time to stop and smell the roses...or in my case...read books and take naps whenever I want too!:)
I think it simply goes back to that question of why. Why is this where I need to be, and if so why aren't things working out? If not for those things, then what? It's definitely something to think about, and something I do think about quite a bit, between those naps I love so much.

Ps.
This is the view from my window:) I'm pretty much in love.
Reading under this guy might be one of my favorite things.


I started running again this week. Getting ready to run a half marathon that seems like it is years away. I am so sore. I have to get past this first week or two and I think if I can do that I can get through. Or maybe this will be the summer of being sore.

IT'S THE SUMMER OF BASEBALL!
My cousin is such a stud and I love love love watching him being such a stud, on and off the ball field. He's pretty impressive, not gonna lie. This summer will be filled with baseball games (and basketball games) and I am pretty excited to be his biggest fan and embarrass him in front of all his friends! I am such a good cousin, aren't I?


Also, I miss these sillies...quite a bit actually!




(Ohh not only do I miss these two...but these crazies are finally engaged:) Excited to welcome Jordan into the family and so extremely happy for my dear sister! Love them both!)

What Are You Scared of Today?

FACT: The smartest people that I know are the people who read. FACT: I am nowhere near being 'the smartest person' anyone knows. FACT: I am a work in progress. FACT: I can become so much more than I currently am. FACT: I am on a quest to read as much as I can for a whole year. FACT: This is exponentially harder than it sounds. _________________________________________________________________________________ I was scrolling through Facebook last week and I came across an article that caught my attention. Being on a "quest to read more" I clicked on the article and started to read a column written by a young lady regarding mental health, her experience, and what she longs to say to those 'dear friends' around her who are also struggling. It was a great read and I am glad that I took the time to read it, however there is one question that has stuck in the back of my mind: "What are you scared of today?" As I have continu...

16 Things I Learned In 2016

Here it is. I cant believe that it is already New Year's Eve. This year has gone so fast and so slow. It has been happy and hard and different than I ever imagined it would be. This time last year, I was at my parent's house in Texas. So much has changed since I rung in the new year with little brothers and 60 degree weather, and as I have spent the day with just two cute puppies and my thoughts I have been overwhelmed with all that the last year has given me. So here it is, in no particular order...16 things that I learned in 2016. 16. Travel Often. Across the ocean or just a few hours away, take the time to see new places. It is ALWAYS worth it. 15. It's okay to say no. Sometimes, you can only give how much your heart will allow. You must take care of yourself before you can take care of others. I learned this through my job, but it is a lesson that I have needed to apply to my entire life for a very long time. ...

Tonight I Feel Broken.

Not completely, but a little bit yeah. I am so tired, my eyes are heavy and they burn. I have no desire to do anything at this point. It's cold and my body just sort of hurts. We've gotten snow the last two days and I am not a fan. Last night I got a phone call from my Father. Apparently my parents haven't been talking to each other about some things in my life the way I had hoped. I sat on my floor a sobbed talking to my Dad on the phone. I miss him. Not only is he my Dad, but he's one of my best friends and favorite people to be around. We had a very good talk and it helped me a lot...or so I thought. I then spent the night watching a movie and hanging out with some friends. It was great. I cant explain the love I feel when I am with such wonderful people. I went to bed last night just as confused as I the night before, just as confused as I will tonight. It's hard. My Mom keeps telling me I can do hard things. Today she made me promise that when I doubt myself or...
