Saturday mornings are for...
incredibly strong coffee.
listening to the birds.
perusing Pinterest.
watching Pretty Little Liars.
quiet time.
snuggling with my marshmallow.
doing absolutely nothing.
Feeling at peace this morning. It's amazing what a few quiet hours and a cup of coffee can do for your mood. I don't normally get to sit down and just enjoy the morning during the week. I'm usually rushing off to work in the morning. I recommend you take some time to sit down and enjoy that cup of coffee this morning and think of how you want to spend your day. It might help you to stretch out that weekend and improve your mood.
How do you spend your Saturday mornings?

Starting Fresh.
I haven't written anything in ages. It feels a bit weird, foreign even. I took a break from internet life and focused on things at home. It felt good. I know I didn't really say anything about it, but I really didn't feel the need. I knew I would return, eventually. I just didn't know when, so why bother with a specific date or time, when it was unknown? It just didn't make sense.
A lot has changed since then. My last post was in October, yes I had to look it up...no judgements, please. The post was about my job and the wonderful lady who trained me. She was my mentor, for all intents and purposes. I miss her.
I am still loving my job. My initial role and responsibilities have changed, or rather morphed into something better. I've taken on many new challenges and am slowly, finding out that I am capable of a lot more than I ever believed I was. I cannot tell you how satisfying it is to know you can do just about anything you set your mind to. It's just amazing. Period.
Work hasn't been the only part of my life to change, my home life has also changed drastically. Husband and I bought a house. Yes, a house! It's our first home and I love it. It is a brick ranch style home with three bedrooms and bathrooms, a modest yard, a full basement, and lots of potential. I'm talking about move-in-ready with the potential for change down the road. It isn't really a fixer-uper by any means. But, oh the potential!
The packing and moving process was awful, though this is kind of standard, from what I hear. We learned that we have way too much crap, not stuff, crap. Most of it needed to be thrown out or donated. But, at the end of the day, we have a home. It's ours. It is our safe haven, where we can relax and make our own rules. That might sound childish, but those of you who have spent most of your life living with roommates will understand, especially when you are a couple. I am beyond grateful to have a place to come home to at the end of the day. A place where I can just be with my Husband and mischievous, little cat. It's totally enough for me.
