Homeowner


Yes that's right... a homeowner! After 2 long years of searching and several disappointments I finally found a condo that I fell in love with and as of Christmas Eve, it's officially mine. I have to thank God for this blessing!!

The housewarming will be January 19th for family and January 26th for my friends. Evite will be sent soon.

Grades are in...
Despite the added responsibilities at work, the stress of moving, the frustrating process of buying a home, a failed long distance relationship and his bullshit, and the battle with procrastination.... I got a 4.0!!!

This Christmas

Christmas never feels the same. Every year it feels more commerical and over-rated. I can remember being an excited 6 year old little girl waking up early on Christmas morning, quietly creeping down the stairs into the living room to see what Santa had left under the gleaming Christmas tree. Nowadays, I believe I must be on Santa's naughty list :(

This Christmas was welcomed by games, drinks, and best friends! Later in the day I drove to Delaware to see my family then had to hike it back in time to get ready for work the next day. I doubt I'll ever be that excited little girl waiting up all night for Santa but I am so very blessed to be able to spend the day with the people I love the most.

Philly girl

Just wanted to let everyone know that I had a successful transition. My dad, nephews and nephew's dad drove up from Delaware yesterday morning to move all of my belonging from the apartment into storage. So now me and the kitties are staying in Philly with my best friend for a few weeks until I go to settlement for the condo.

I must thank you all for your thoughts, kind words, and prayer. Seriously, I wish I could express how much I truly appreciate your support. I'm not out of the woods yet but at least the biggest obstacle is now out the way and I can focus solely on the condo.

I'm sure you can observe through my writings over the last 6 weeks that I have been anxiously awaiting this day and it came and went without any problems. I'm beyond elated that I was able to close that chapter in my life and now I look forward to starting the next phase. The stress is over. The fear is gone. I'm back!!
