Seriously. Every time I disappear from my blog, I vow that I will not let another unplanned hiatus keep me from posting. And yet, here I am again. 6 weeks down the road from my last post. Sigh. What can you do? Time to dust myself off and keep moving forward.
Just to keep us all on the same page, here are the highlights:
- I started my new job.
- I started traveling weekly with my new job (like immediately, day 2 I was on the road).
- I LOVE my new job. I’m pretty sure that I say to Mr. Dawn almost every day how much I love my job. I’m not sure this is a good idea, since he doesn’t have the same feelings towards me being gone so much.
- We found a house, made an offer, and started packing up.
- We closed on our house! Homeownership? Does that mean that I’m an adult now?
- We moved the same day we closed. Oh, and I worked that day too. Thankfully we have amazing friends that helped Mr. Dawn load and unload the truck. All I did to help was go out to eat with them as a thank you.
- Unpacking is almost as painful as packing. And I am starting to feel like an expert on both.
- I have run a negligible amount. I do a decent job of running while I’m on the road, but slack off pretty hard core while I’m at home.
That pretty much sums it up. I’m not going to make any sweeping statements about being back for good or guaranteeing that I’m going to be blogging more regularly, cause…lets face it…I’m obviously not great at that. I do need to get my butt kicked into gear on the running front though. My marathon is in three months and I am embarrassingly not currently following any kind of training plan.
Here’s hoping!
Glad for the update! Yes, you are now a full adult! And as you just bought a house, I don’t think you need to worry about packing (at least your entire house up) again for a very long time! As far as loving your job, I AM SO HAPPY FOR YOU!!! And when it comes to not running as much, I believe in you, you are amazing, and you are my motivation that someday I can and will run again! Oh and I love you, the end, Andi
Glad to see you are back- even briefly! You are missed!!
Really glad you are enjoying your work
Sounds like life is good!
That’s okay, we’ll take what we can get
so glad you are happy in the new job/place – and we’re all still here!
this keeps happening because you keep livin’ the good life. Keep doing what you’re doing and if the blog is meant to be it’ll happen,…or not.
thanks for the life update. keeps me hoping for a turnaround in my life as well!!
oh my gosh how much great stuff!!! so glad you love your job, it makes a huge difference
Ah, y’know. Take your time.
Thanks for the update! Glad to hear you’re enjoying your job so much
I’m so glad (and jealous) you are enjoying your new job and you are buying a house!! That is so exciting!!
I literally just came to your blog today with the intension of leaving a comment on your last post, saying how much I’ve missed you. And boom! A new post! Well, girl, I totally understand the lack of blogging enthusiasm these days (I’m right there with ya). But KUDOS on the sweet new job AND house. I’m jealous
I’m still in grad school and living in a (really nice, but still) rented condo. Email me… I’d love to hear more about your job, house, and life!
