WOW

So just a little recap, because clearly twenty-fourteen hasn't been my year for consistent blogging

one. survived our first household stomach bug

two. decorated for our first Christmas together in Germany (and our first tree together)

three. this little Bean is walking, sometimes

four. and he had his first birthday

five. and finally I am still an aimless bored housewife (house-girlfriend?) who spends all her free time watching bad tv shows and picking up toys around the house

Maybe blogging isn't my thing, but I will keep trying. I have a few posts in my drafts but I keep feeling too self conscious to post because I feel like they sound more intense then I intend it to be... I'm hoping the new year will bring some new changes, I have some very specific goals I wish to achieve so fingers crossed, and hopefully I will keep y'all (my non-existent readers) posted!

HELLO

I have been putting off writing my introductory post for this blog for several weeks now, and in the end chose to abandon it all together and go with something different for my first post. Sundays post was me announcing a new chapter in my life, where I am taking responsibility for my own happiness, now I would like to tie that in to why I decided to start a blog. In about 2 months I will be moving overseas to be with the father of my child but leaving everyone else I love behind. It is both a sad and exciting endeavor and I constantly flick back and forth between both emotions as the departure day draws nearer. This blog is for me, to express myself and encourage my creativity while I settle in and begin my new life, and it's for my family and friends to keep up to date with my life, my sons life and to give them piece of mind in regards to me being so far away. I do not know what I will end up writing about, I do not know what direction this blog will take me but I would like to figure it out.
