new year. new marriage. new home. old friends.

Well it's certainly been awhile since my last post. I don't know how many people read or are interested in my posts. However, I will carry on and see if I can't keep people more up to date with my life.

Since my last post, I finished up the school year, went home to Washington, went to ACSD, traveled all over the west coast, lived the life of a nomad, got MARRIED, went on a two week honeymoon in MAUI, drove back to Indiana, and got settled into our new little home here with my husband. :) It was a busy but good summer.

Today was the first day of classes. In the past, I have always been incredibly excited for the first day of classes, especially in the fall. It signifies new beginnings, new knowledge, and new opportunities to learn and grow. Which, being a learner by strength, I love. Syllabus days motivate me. They inspire me to be a better student, scholar, and person. As crazy as that may sound. Today was a little different from the norm for me. While I'm incredibly excited to start this new year, I feel like I've been on such a whirlwind, I didn't have time to get emotionally or mentally prepared for this semester. And now it's started. Fortunately, it's shaping up to be a manageable semester so far. We'll see if I say that in a week or two. :)

So a short update for today. Not sure where I will go from here. It seems somewhat silly to have a blog about my everyday doings, as they aren't very exciting. However, I will faithfully post and see what happens.

Here's to beginnings.
