Almost a Full Year

It's strange to think that the last time I glanced at this space on the internet was almost a full year ago.  At times I have found an interesting image or quote and had the intention of posting it, but then something interrupts and the idea is lost.  However, in trolling through the past three years of sporadic blog posts as well as my image library, I realized that this is the perfect place to record things in my life.  Stuff I love, events (big and small,) and random thoughts that may pass by.

In the last year life has changed quite a bit.  A new apartment, a new job for my boyfriend, a new car.  Looking back I wish I had kept a better record of 2013 here.  I'm hoping that starting now, I am able to do better in 2014, so I can look back at this time next year and remember all of the fab times that are to come.

No Expectations

Upon discussing resolutions with my mom before New Year's Day she came up with a great motto for the year, "No Expectations." So often the new year means goals that end up not being achieved and promises that aren't kept. Everyone hopes for a better year, but in reality fate always steps in, and life must abide. This year I have come up with some simple ideas that would make life in 2013 more enjoyable including blogging more often (about whatever comes to mind,) having nice dinners on Sunday, continuing morning green drinks, trying to be better with money (a never ending goal,) not letting things bother me so much because in the end "que sera sera, whatever will be will be," and if I don't have any expectations, I will be able to wholly accept the outcome of my daily life, and be happy with it.

Life Happens

Life has been really crazy for me lately.  Let's just say a whole bunch of things have gotten shaken up, and I'm really excited for the upcoming months, but for now I am focused on enjoying the weekend with my loves.  Enjoy yours too...

And so it begins...

The scorching hot humid NYC weather that is.  Wow Memorial Day you really brought summer this year!  This season for me represents a time when fleeing the city is necessary as often as possible, which is why we made our way upstate this past weekend.  There is so much more air!  Aside from breathing deeply, we relaxed a bunch, ate and drank, and made s'more cookies which were so good!  I will have to post the recipe.  It was really enjoyable, and too short, which weekends often are.  I'm looking forward to my next escape.
