I'M BACK!!!

I'm back ya'll.

And I re-vamped the blog for funsies.

It's been almost 6 years, guys. I can honestly say I've missed this.  Tons of things have happened that I've really wanted to share, but every time I thought about blogging, I got a weird, scary, vulnerable feeling in my stomach and I let it stop me from pursuing this. #realtalk

I don't know why.

I think I just let that nasty voice of doubt tell me I wasn't good enough and that my thoughts weren't worth reading and I shrunk away into my dark corner of shame and embarrassment. But I'm here now and I'm saying "NO MORE!" to that stupid voice! I love writing and I love sharing my experiences and if my dorky stories are able to make even one person smile, it'll be worth it...even if that one person is my Dad...(Hi, Dad!!!)

So, since it's been a while, I present to you in all its glory,

A 60-SECOND LIFE UPDATE:

(Audience cheers)

• Kyle and I made 3 babies and they're incredible.
  
  

  
  

  

  
  
• We have a crazy 2-year-old husky named Gracie who radiates more sass than I ever knew was possible.
• 
  

  

  
  
• We moved to Wisconsin so my cheese addiction is now socially acceptable.

• I went back to school to finish my degree and I'm a much more responsible college student. I'm studying English, Entrepreneurship, and Social Media Marketing.

• I've worked through some moderately significant mental health struggles in the last 3 years and I've learned a lot.

• I run obstacle course races! It mostly involves me running into walls and hitting the ground real hard, but I always come out feeling stronger and more confident in life.

• I'm teaching Gracie how to mush on a rusty mountain bike with terrible brakes. It's a real thrill.

• I just enrolled my four-year-old in ballet so I guess that makes me a dance mom now?

So yeah. This is my life. This is my blog. Thanks for being here.
