i got off work at 7 last night and drove straight to boone. i went to my wonderful friend's birthday party where i popped out of a box and surprised her. reunited with my best friend amanda and got treats. i stayed with the birthday girl, slept in and had a sweet morning. now i'm at espresso in my favorite window seat. i remember sitting at this same table 4 years ago after my friends gave me the best gift i've ever recieved: a xylophone. what a treat.

i lived in boone for two years. i don't care if i never live here again, or if all my friends here move away, or if espresso news closes down (god forbid). this place will always be home to me. i escaped from the turmoil and abuse and negativity of my hometown and started clean. a new chapter with jesus that, even though it's over now, i'll carry with me forever.

keep going

hi kitty cats.

in general, life is brutal, but it is still sweet. i feel like i just got settled here in greensboro, and now i have to start the moving process all over again. despite the mess, i got a good taste of autumn on sunday, full of treats and going to the park with my best friend. it was the sweetest. i am well.

this is a season of learning to trust. trusting that my life is worth more than 7.50 an hour, 40 hours a week. trust that i will not be sick forever. trust that the desires of my heart will come to fruition when it's time. i will embrace this season with my whole heart until it's time to keep moving. it's what we do best together.

i'm going to have a treat.

happy tuesday!

all is bright.

so beautiful i could explode.

it's christmas time!
