Do your parents and grandparents regularly comment that the days, weeks, months and years seem to fly by faster and faster as you get older. I feel like mine “just don’t know where the time has gone…” Now, I may sound old, but isn’t this the truth?
So many wonderful things have happened to me over the last decade, particularly in the last year. I have graduated from high school and college. I moved to a new city, got engaged, started my freelance writing career and got married.
While I enjoy reflecting on the past and looking forward to the future, I think that this year I am most excited about the present. (Ironic that I am excited about future present moments? You decide.)
I am bound and determined not to let life pass me by. Presently, I am hanging out in my place in Chicago, but in the near future here are a few things that I am going to be up to:
-Heading to Costa Rica next week for an international birthday adventure with my brother, Patrick. (It is his birthday, and I couldn’t bear the thought of him being by himself in a foreign country on his birthday.)
-Building my business. I am determined to build my writing and web strategy business so I can continue to have the freedom I desire. Interested? Give me a shout.
-Continuing to surround myself with the people I love. My family means the world to me, and in November I added some wonderful people to this group. I am excited to introduce Jeff to old traditions, experience his family’s and begin to create our own.
From the sound of things, this year is already shaping up nicely. I am off to do some living now, just not outside. I don’t like living in single digit weather.
