It’s Been A While, Hi!

I know… it’s been a while, hi, hello! A very long time. Almost like a month? But listen, I’m back. I’ve had a lot going on. I’ll sum this past month up to the best of my ability. So… here we go. 

I’ve Been Traveling

Kansas City 

So first of all, if you remember some time ago (here), I said I plan to travel a lot this year. Well, I’ve already started. At the end of April, I went to Kansas City to visit one of my best friends and celebrate her birthday. It was a time! We spent some quality time together, ate some good food, and went to the club – s/n: I am not a club girly, but we had a ball that weekend. To be honest, we just had an overall fun time! 

And on top of that – It was the NFL draft pick that weekend. While I did not find my husband that could make me a stay-at-home wife yet… I’m keeping hope alive! LOL … one day my people… one day. 

Washington D.C

Then, at the beginning of May, I went back to D.C. For those of you who may be new here, I say back because last May I graduated from Thee Howard University in Washington, D.C. In a sense, I would still count it as a home away from home because I spent many of my adult developmental years there. Anyway… I went back because my previous suitemate turned family was graduating. I had to go and support her walk across the stage!

We also had a lot of fun there. We went out celebrated, drank too many mimosas, and just enjoyed each other’s company. We had not seen each other since I graduated and moved out last year, so I missed my girl. 

And yes… I saw Joe Biden speak at the commencement. Very interesting stuff. 

I have 2 More Trips Coming Up

I actually have two more trips coming up in the next two months, so as you can see… when I said I wanted and was going to travel this year… I meant it. I’m very happy and glad that I am blessed enough to go on these trips, but I will say I am grateful for weekends like this that allow me to catch my breath, regroup, and get some overdue things done. Thank God for rest – can I get an AMEN!? 

I’m On A Health Journey

Additionally, I have been on a health journey. I think I mentioned before in a previous blog post as well, but I want to be healthier this year. Mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. But specifically, when it comes to my physical health, I got a gym membership about a month ago. I also have a trainer – something I truly thought I would never do. Not because I didn’t necessarily want to, but because I don’t care to feel pressured to do anything. 

In my mind originally, a trainer was just someone else who was going to irritate me in the long run because I thought they would push me too hard. But honestly, it hasn’t been like that at all. My trainer has been super nice, motivating, and funny. I get trained once a week and the rest of the week I try to go to the gym at least 3-4 times on my own. Well not exactly on my own because I bring one of my best friends with me, so we hold each other accountable. I feel pretty good lately and have even been trying to be cognizant of my eating habits. So yes, that’s been great!

I’m Bored and Want To Start Dating Again 

This update is still pending in a way because I am very indecisive. Especially about my love life. One day I want to be single and stay to myself and the next day I want to be in love. LOL, I think I’ve mentioned before that I am very delusional. Let me give you a picture of HOW delusional… the other day I woke up early out of my sleep and began looking at wedding dresses…. 

Why… why was I looking at wedding dresses?

I’ll tell you why… delusion. I don’t have a boyfriend nor do I date anyone right now so I have no idea why I would have the urge to even have a wedding on my mind. But I will say this… when I do fall in love and get engaged, my fiance won’t have to worry about A THING because I pretty much have my wedding planned out so… there’s that. So honey… if you see this in the future… don’t even worry about it big dawg! I got it! 

Final Thoughts

Well… that’s a lot of what’s been going on with me. I’m sorry for being away for so long. I’m still trying to get the hang of this whole big girl job and working on my crafts at the same time thing. It’s been a huge learning curve for me. Still trying to find my rhythm. But I’m trying! I hope you guys have been having an amazing month of May. And I hope you have been experiencing some good parts in your stories! I’ll talk to you guys soon. 🙂
