Can't Keep Up - Happy Fall Ya'll

Hello followers! I am so sorry, I can't seem to keep up with the blog, but I think the new design work I created for it has revitalized my excitement for its use. We will see if I do any better....


Can you believe it's November? I mean really, where does the time go? I find myself thinking about that a lot and I am only 28. Time has gone so fast since I moved to Indianapolis 5 years ago.

I remember it like it was yesterday, Mat Pochon and I loading up an old truck with my 5 belongings - clothes, a lamp, a microwave cart (no microwave of course), a stinky old couch and an entertainment center with a tv. I didn't even have a bed. I slept on 4 comforters in a $1,000 a month, downtown apartment on the canal. We just had to have that nice apartment so we could look like we had it together, but when you walked inside....wow, not much at first... it started looking like an apartment around the time we moved out. Then when I moved in with Mike, I was so glad he had things - I chose the perfect bachelor for sure. One that has taste and likes nice things. Now I have everything I could ever ask for, no, really. When my mother asks us what we would like for birthdays and Christmas, we say we don't know. I used to have a list for her ready when I was sleeping on blankets in my apartment.

So it is that time of the year where we stop and think about what we are thankful for.... the "downtown" me used to be thankful for a cool apartment, some new high heels or an awesome new jacket, but 5 years later I am thankful for my best friend Mike, my wonderfully open and fun family (Mom, Duane, Carrie, Tim, Mike Sr. and Cathi), my job, my friends, my furbabies Max and Miller and my awesome life. I did it my way and it ended up perfectly!
