Fall Beginnings

Hey all! This fall I am making a vow to new beginnings- starting with this blog! Last time this year I was entering my first year as a teacher, I was dating my now fiancé, I was living at home, I was healthy, and my sisters were away at school. This fall I am no longer teaching, I am engaged (getting married in Dec), moving out on my own this weekend, both my sisters are back at home, and I have been diagnosed with Endometriosis- a disease that essentially ruins your reproductive organs. As a result I had to move my wedding from May to Dec and I need to have kids ASAP! This past year I have learned quite a lot about myself. First of all, I learned that I am not emotionally strong enough to handle teaching. I couldn’t deal with the constant cut downs, second guessing by parents, and responsibility for the children's education. After leaving teaching I found myself working at a spa and now an insurance company. It has given me time to restart and refocus on myself. As the days pass I am finding out more about who I am. For instance, I really enjoy working with people, and I enjoy crafting! A lot will be taking place this year including my wedding, moving out, trying to have a baby, and an overall rediscovery of myself. What better way to document the journey then through a blog!
