Oh right, I have a blog

So, I'm not the most consistent blogger in the world. The two of you that read this will forgive me, right? I have a Birchbox that needs reviewing and I said something about some blogs about shoes that you should look forward to. I'm sure there have been some other somewhat exciting things in my life that I could tell you about. But, I've failed you. Sorry. I've had a lot I've wanted to say but haven't felt like I should ramble about my personal life and my frustrations with it in such a public forum. So, I've kept it to myself and to a few trusted friends and one-on-one, actual human interactions.
I've been a little down in the dumps lately. I've understood why people want to just sit around and drink all day (and, my problems are not anywhere near what some people deal with). I've wanted to just lay on my couch and watch Twilight movies all day. I'm working my way out of it though, so don't worry too much about me. If you want to know more details, feel free to contact me some other way. It has to do with boys and feeling like I'm not really going anywhere in life and wishing I had a reason to take pictures with someone (a friend keeps posting her fantastic photos of lovely couples and families and it makes me want to have photos).
On the bright side, today I got a sweet reminder that I have fantastic people in my life who really do love and care for me. This shouldn't be a revelation to me because I am very fortunate to have always had wonderful friends and family. But, sometimes you just need a reminder. I got home from dinner (again, with friends that I am lucky enough to see all the time) and there was a package waiting for me. I was a bit surprised because I didn't order anything and it's not my birthday and it's too early for Christmas. When I opened it, it was a lovely set of my very own personalize stationary! Very simple cards with my name at the top in a lovely apple green color. Turns out they are from a friend of mine who just wanted to be sweet. I had mentioned to him awhile ago that I was jealous of his personalized stationary and that I had thought of getting my own but never had. I had pretty much forgotten about that conversation but I guess he remembered. The stationary is lovely but I think it means even more that he remembered such a short conversation and thought that I could use a little treat.
I really am incredibly blessed by the people in my life.

No worries Liz! I'm a patient reader :)

I love those moments when I'm down and then something happens that reminds me how good God is to me.

Love you! And I think you and I should have photos done...haha! Actually, that would be kind of a fun thing. Get dolled up with friends and have Megan snap professional pictures of you out and about. Hmmmm...
