When I started this blog last year, T & I had just moved in to our first "gown up" apartment. I wanted, somehow, to document this first grown up year, and the time we spent together--and thus the blog was born.
Over the months, this little blog worked in many different ways; a place to share eco-friendly finds, a way to stay accountable with more than one semi-successful exercise plan, and, of course, a starting point to meet many wonderful bloggers.
Then I got in to nursing school, and T got in to law school. We moved to up Baltimore for the summer, which was wonderful and challenging in so many ways. Now T has moved back down Virginia, and as grade-schoolers everywhere are stocking up on #2 pencils and Elmer's glue, I'm gearing up for a new adventure of my own: living alone. Of course, T is only a few hours away, and between weddings and holidays and long weekends, I'm sure we'll see plenty of each other; I'll miss him like crazy, but I'm not worried about how things will turn out.
I am a little nervous about being on my own, living on my own, in a still-new city. And again, I feel the urge to somehow document this year, this time in my life. I there will be many changes from last year--not all of which I can anticipate from this vantage point--and I feel the need for a change in my blog location, if only to symbolize a change my blogging style, reflective of the changes in my life.
So, feel free to come stop by, and subscribe if you're so moved. I've moved all my old posts over, so it looks pretty much the same right now--I decision inspired my something someone once told me about remembering where you came from to know where you're going. But expect changes. I do.
