It has been over a year since I last posted on this blog, and it’s about time I start taking this dream of mine a little more seriously. I have been saying for the last 365 days that I have a unique perspective on moving across the country, and life in general, and that I want to pursue this opportunity. To be honest, I’m a big chicken and afraid I won’t be able to stay consistent, but I won’t know until I try.
Also during the church sermon last weekend, Pastor Robert Madu was visiting and said something that punched me in the face. He said “Faith is spelled R-I-S-K”. That stuck with me because nothing is going to happen without action. So here is my action. Prepare to be sick of me.
A lot of life has happened since I last posted; hubs got promoted, we moved from California to Kansas, we thought we found a house (it fell through), fired our real estate agent, bought a different house, I started my business in Kansas, expanded my business to Missouri, we traveled back and forth between Texas and Kansas City a few times, our lab Lucy was diagnosed with a second type of cancer, and the list goes on.
This isn’t any more than the majority of people handle in a twelve month span. And individually it was all pretty straightforward. Looking at it in hindsight, a lot of big stuff happened and it seems like it should have been more overwhelming than it was. We conquered it and will continue to handle life as it happens, hopefully with smiles on our faces.
So, going forward, I’m going to post about life as it happens. Things like general lifestyle, our home, tips and tricks for moving cross-country, our dogs, books I’m reading, and health/fitness. I am not an expert in any of these areas, I just want to share what works for us and lessons I’ve learned along the way.
I hope you choose to stick around! I’ll see you in a few days!
