Hey friends! Yes, I've been quiet once again. If you caught that last post that I entitled goals and freak outs the cause of my silence might not be to hard to figure out! The simple response to my silence was that I needed time...and so, time is what I took. I have had probably thee"laziest" few weeks that I can ever recall.
Typically I don't sit, I'm a mover, a busy bee, and if I have managed to sit my brain is going a zillion miles a minute and I'm planning what I'm going to do the second I get back up. {{Someone hand me over the chill pills!}} But after a few days of consistently feeling completely overwhelmed, I felt as if I was supposed to sit my butt down and just stop it for a second, and strangely that's exactly what I did. It was weird for me, but soo good and soo needed!
I took the time to take naps, cook myself yummy breakfasts, I might have even talked to one or a few sexy (ahemmm, what I really meant to say was....) nice gentlemen, while on this little breakie poo... heyyyyy! I spent quality time with my little, watched every episode of New Girl that Netflix has, laughed, went out, took baths, and focused my attention when and where I wanted instead of where I felt it should be!

Long story short, I think I've peeled off another layer that has allowed me to be more ready for what lies ahead. Taking that breather took a lot of the pressure that I built up on my own shoulders away. I'm still learning the mix of going after goals with peace and grace. Learning to be ok with the "in between" of the starting and arrival points of my journeys. I'm pointing my eyes back towards a specific word in one of my favorite phrases:"life is a beautiful mess"...keyword beautiful. We can't deny that life is messy, and at times it's downright hard, but 9 times out of 10 the mess does work itself out and turn into it's own version of something beautiful right!? Imperfectly perfect!?
The time away also allowed some good time for me to think more in depth about this space, and more of what I want it to be, for me and for you. The original reason of why this blog was started still very much remains, but the vision for what I hope it to be and contain has expanded and grown. My message is expanding. If you are having any difficulty in trying to figure out your own blogging space, niche or brand, I really recommended you start with reading some of these pieces from Tico and Tina.
And so with that, I'm back and excited to share more here with you. Could there be more periods of silence, quiet possibly...and that's ok with me.
