I've always enjoyed writing; Always wanted a journal, which I guess is now an outdated term, to jot down my thoughts, emotions and just good ol' ramblins. I've started these things a thousand different times, some paper & some online, but have never really suceeded in keeping them going. Just seemed to get side tracked and never return.
My goal by writing this blog is to simply have an outlet for whatever my mind is keeping inside, scary to think this will hold what my mind is thinking! My life has changed in so many ways since the last time I sat down to write anything. I'm married now. I have a daughter now. Life is busy.
Well, who am I?
I'm a twenty something modern woman. What the hell does that mean? Makes me laugh just writing it. I guess I would define it as just being an off the cuff individual. I wouldn't say feminist or anything like that. I just think I'm more of a "now-a-days" kinda girl. Although I do sometimes believe I was born in the wrong era, but thats a whole nother blog.
I work full-time as an assistant manager at a fashion retailer. I love my job. Its fun, exciting and every day is something new! Not to mention its like being someone's fashion consultant everyday! I never knew what I wanted to do in life. I took a few college courses, didn't really fit me honestly. I'm not the type of person who believes that college is always best. You can't learn everything about life in a book, and half the things you learn in a book is wrong any how! I kind of "fell" into my job. After a string of bartending jobs I moved to Montana and decided to look for something new, about a year later I started working at the store and worked my way up. I'm hoping to be the manager within the next couple of years, maybe sooner.
I'm married to the most wonderful man. I know every wife says that, but I honestly mean it. He's a great guy! I've had a few relationships that haven't quite turned out like the fairytale in my head (face it, who hasn't). After a five year relationship with Mr.Wrong I discovered what happiness truely is in love- honesty, both with each other and with yourself. I have never been able to be completely honest on both of those parts in past relationships. And looking back this is where it all went wrong. But the day I met Q was the day I made a change. So cliche but so true. Every thing has always been different with us. They say when you find the one "You just know" and its true. It can't be explained and it definately can't be forced. It just happens. Its so natural and pure that there's nothing else to call it other than fate.
I have a daughter who was just born the past year. She's brought so much meaning to my life in just the 3 months she's been alive. I always knew I wanted kids but the timing never seemed "right". About a year after being together and deciding to get married Q and I made the choice to have a baby. The timing was perfect. On Feburary 5th, 2010 I found out I was pregnant- that I can honestly say was the day my life changed and I never looked back. And on October 22nd, 2010 Lil Miss entered the world, screaming, and I found such a peace about life. Funny how such a little person changes who you are forever.
With everything that has happened in my life, I guess I now feel like putting it in black and white. Its time. Maybe some one will read this and relate. Maybe not. Only time will tell.
