Several months ago I mentioned I wanted a new blog name. Something that better defined who I am! The time has finally come to move on and start anew! Thank you to everyone who read and commented on this blog and I hope you’ll follow me to my new corner of the web! Please update your links and join me on my new journey over at:

I’ve been really out of sorts lately. I think it has to do with a lot of different things all coming together to make me feel all around BLAH. One of which is the warm/humid weather. Most people get depressed in the winter when everything is dormant and all the trees look dead. NOT ME! I get a case of the grumps nearly all summer long because the heat and humidity just wears me out and makes me want to take a nap underneath a fan. These last few days have been the first few humid days and I guess after Winter and an exceptionally long Spring, it’s a bit of a harder adjustment. I’m already ready for Fall after just a couple days of humidity. Don’t get me wrong, I do love some things about summer! I love swimming, going out on the boat, July 4th, flip-flops, the abundance of fruit, vibrant summer colors and more boat rides but that’s pretty much the extent of it.

Unfortunately this funk I’ve been in the last week has me really going off plan with my food choices. I think this is partly because of my Birthday, but also I have a problem with emotional eating. I’ll eat far more when I’m feeling a little down. I’m not even entirely sure why I feel so down. I know part of it is I really feel like a complete alien in this world sometimes. Trust me, I like being different. I don’t want to be like everyone else, but sometimes I wish I could be a little more like everyone else. I wish I fit in. Sometimes this hits me really hard and I think sometimes Facebook can be to blame for making me feel this way. I’m just not your typical 27 year old. Then again, I’ve never been your typical ANY year old. I guess I just thought at some point I’d grow out of it and spontaneously become more like everyone else. NOPE!

I think what I need is a CHANGE. I’m not sure what kind of change, though. Maybe I should revisit an old hobby, start a new project or maybe I just need to work on some of my friendships or make new ones. I don’t know! Sometimes I wish I had someone who was like my brother and would drag me out of the house spontaneously and force me out of this funk! I need a spontaneous person in my life! I’m a planner and us planners don’t do spontaneous unless it’s at the hand of another.

Anyway, I’m just incessantly writing as I think tonight. I just worry that if I don’t do something to pull myself out of this mood that I’m going to withdraw back into my little shell for a while and I refuse to do that and lose sight of all the progress I’ve been making. So I’ll just pray on it and keep focused on what’s important and hope it all works out! Now I’m going to relax and get some reading in! Hope you all are having a more positive week than I am!
