2018. My 29th year. The year I take control and make big moves. At least- that is what I’m telling myself.

How does starting a blog fall into me taking control? I’ll be totally honest- I’m still figuring that out. But blogging has been this idea that has rolled around in the back of my head the past 10+ years. And this year- for some reason- I have had the motivation and drive to actually do the things I’ve been putting off. Things like removing physical clutter from my life to make more space for creative activities like this blog. Another example – starting home projects I have always wanted to do but seemed to never be able to just start. The most recent example of getting rid of this procrastination tendency? I got my real estate license while working my full time job in healthcare.

But this blog? This blog makes me have sweaty palms because I have constantly battled my worry about what people will think. Putting yourself out there is terrifying, especially if you are a worry wart like me.

So here it is- the just start to this whole blogging thing for me. Equal parts awful and exciting.

(And I really really hope you like it.)
