Hi!

It's almost bedtime for me. I know it's a Friday night, but I'm on the couch resting. I went and had soup with my dad earlier (Mom is out of town, so I get to be my Dad's date). I've been sickly the past day, bad. So I've only been eating Saltines and Sprite, tried to eat a small cup of soup tonight. It was nice and light and airy. I am almost 100% better!

On a better note, the store has opened!

Her name is Mulberry Dreams and she is a beaut! I am the store manager and am looking so forward to this coming up year! 

Things are changing! The weather is changing (brrrr), I have a new job, I'm currently looking for a new place to live, painting a heap more and just trying to change things overall. 

You know?

If any of you have any advice about how to cope with change, please let me know. I've been trying to learn and teach myself how to deal with things in life. I'm trying to understand that you can't control people, you can only control yourself. 

I'm also learning how to take things one-step-at-a-time.. 

I also had two art shows last month and launched my website! Please go check it out :]

Well, it's getting a bit late. I'm gonna finish my sprite and try to get some sleep. 

Night night. 

So, I guess I should say good morning?

My Sunday night included: Netflix, pajamas, cleaning, wine, dinner, beer, my cat, a candle and a cup of tea. Than I am about to currently make. :] Tonight hasn't been so bad. 

I've actually made a list of things that are my goals in the next few weeks. 

I've been on the craziest roller coaster ride for the past few weeks. A new job is happening, meeting new friends and new people, having feelings for someone, learning how to be truly independent and living life after college. It's been a wild one to say the least, but I can't complain (for right now) ;) 

What have you been listening to lately? I've been all over the new Volcano Choir album, Repave. Not only will Justin Vernon melt your face off, but my ears are so happy. 

I planned on staying up late, writing on my blog, watching another movie on Netflix. But alas, I have changed my mind. I think I'm about make a cup of tea and go to bed. I want to wake up in the morning and feel completely rested. I can feel my throat getting sore on one side. (No no no! Don't get sick!) 

I will be back soon enough. 

Love.

After having a few glasses of wine tonight, I thought I should blog a little. Right now, I am currently sitting in my apartment watching a movie that I am so uninterested in.. about to switch to another movie. 

I was thinking about so much earlier. Probably too much to be honest, but I tend to do that. I'm probably going to make some hot tea in a little bit and read some of my book. I'm reading a book called, The Fault in our Stars by John Green. 

It's one of those books that it excites your insides to turn the next page.. and hurts your heart to put it down. It's so entertaining. I have found that it's hard to find a book that actually makes me laugh out loud. And this book has made me laugh, cry and smile with so much happiness. Please, if you are looking for a book to read, read it. 

I'm actually looking up some other books by John Green. He's such a great author. 

SIDE NOTE: Just ordered two more books and more polaroids for my camera. :]

I've also been working out lately trying to get at a more happier standpoint with my weight. Does anyone out there have any advice or something that has worked for them? I'm just trying to get healthy and lose a little extra "ness" you know?

I'm about to go read a little. I can't seem to find a good movie that is catching my attention. 

I must get in the shower, but I wanted to stop in and say hello. So i've moved into a new place! And it's almost perfect, I'm missing studio space to paint. :[ But that is okay, I've been hopping over to my parents basement and painting.

This is the first picture I've taken of my place. My buddy has settled in quite well. 

It is truly so cute and small and perfect for little ole me.

So every one is at sxsw, huh? I went last year and just needed a break this year. But I know all my band babies had a rad time.
I've been taking it quite easy and just moving in. I'm actually really enjoying my time here in Jackson. I would really like to move somewhere that's a little bigger with more land, lots of open space and green every where.

I hope you all have a wonderful Saturday. I must get ready for work. Smile a heap today!
