So here's the deal when it comes to me... I am not crafty. I'm an ok cook. I hate cleaning bathrooms. I'm not a fashionista. I'm not a fan of BS. I'm not a photographer, I don't edit photos. I don't work at a magazine. I don't have an etsy shop. I'm not on pintrest. And I don't have a formspring. I don't live & die by Twitter (only ck it 2 times a day??)
What does that leave then?
What's left is...me. Oldest daughter. Big sister. Wife. Auntie. Believer. I love to eat. I sometimes love to work out. I need a buddy when I go to the gym. I hit the husband jackpot (hubby is spending his break cleaning out/organizing our office!). I love "reality" TV. I like planning future trips. I love enjoying fashion. I have great friends. I really enjoy the occasional lazy Sunday, curled up on my couch with my blanket. Driving with my windows down & music loud is my perfect summer activity. I love being in Ocean Shores. Genealogy makes me happy. Hawaii, with a book & the sound of the ocean takes me to my happy place. I love the way old books smell. I want to decorate our entire office with retro Hawaiian photos & a big comfy chair. I'm nervous about giving birth (*disclaimer...NOT pregnant FYI!). I still worry that I don't fit in with my inlaws; or that I ever will feel that comfort. I love reading historical books.
Does all that stuff still make me "cool?" But really....who cares about being cool? I sometimes still struggle with it (ex: comparing myself to one of my dear friends, who is a work out fiend!). I'm doing my best to be true to myself, identify my strengths and ignore that part of my brain that tries to compare. It's a never ending process it seems. But mostly I'm thankful for a Lord who is forgiving, grants PEACE, gives never ending MERCY, and is ALWAYS by my side. There's nothing better than that.
Love to you
