It’s been forever. Lots has changed.

-

Let’s start with the good new stuff:

I bought a house!!! (with the help of my parents). It’s a super cute old yellow brick house with bay windows in my neighbourhood. I move in in less than a month!

I got promoted! Effective at the beginning of this year, I’m an Associate at my company. I feel valued and respected and learn so much all the time. I love the work I do and the people I work with.

I joined a new gym that I love. It has an amazing variety of classes including barre which I missed so much!! The facilities are gorgeous and have such nice perks like a steam room and sauna.

-

Now the less fun stuff:

Im super single - something I didn’t think I’d be in my 30s. I recently saw something about how getting older is mourning the life you thought you’d have and I don’t really resonate with that because I still feel like it will all fall into place.

I work too much. I need to get better at delegating so I can have less on my plate.

I need to make new girlfriends in Toronto.

This is a year of change. So much has already happened. Big things are coming. Manifesting new connections and relationships with great, kind people.

It’s Called Maximalism, Babe

Why shouldn’t I stop and smell the espresso beans / Or say, in a voice a little too loud, This is the best margarita I’ve ever had!! / Or use the full curse word / Or have my dessert first / Why shouldn’t I give it my all / And do it for the story / And leap before looking / And let love consume me / Why shouldn’t I use my expensive face creams with abandon / Triple text my crush / Laugh at my own jokes / Cry at commercials / Sing at the top of my lungs while I vacuum / Buy the orange chair / Paint the town purple / And fly across the country just to pinch a cheek / Why shouldn’t I hold your face in both of my hands at 11:30AM on a Tuesday while you’re chopping a salad and remind you that you’re the center of my happiest days / Why shouldn’t I memorize how the sun comes in from the front window / Turn the music up / Give the dog a piece of cheese / Say what I mean / Let my hair down / Forgive fast / Believe that the best is yet to come / Tell me - no really - why shouldn’t I? Why shouldn’t we? Why shouldn’t you?

Taking a walk because it feels good going to bed on time because it feels good waking up earlier because it feels good eating enough fruit because it feels good doing a workout because it feels good cooking myself a nice meal because it feels good staying in contact with friends because it feels good… sometimes joy is work but it’s always worth it
