>>This week has been a weird one, friends. I’m sure you can imagine. After spending 10 days back home, diving back into reality was a little tough to do. I’ve eaten more sushi than one should probably admit this week. Apparently that’s my comfort food.
>>I’ve also done a little shopping. And by that I mean buying my first ever Mac & Tarte lipsticks. Because apparently those are the important things in life. Duh.
>>I started back on the Parenthood train. I bailed on the later seasons on live TV because I just couldn’t find the time anymore. It’s probably a mistake to be watching that show right now, given everything. But it’s a good bingeable show. And it gives me a reason to cry. Like I needed one of those.
>>I’m glad so many are IN on the whole “new” New Years thing! It’ll be fun for sure. Maybe we should come up with a hashtag. Any suggestions? I’ll put my thinking cap on, too.
>>I was at the grocery store on Tuesday and the guy at the register got all excited. Apparently I was in the newspaper a few weeks ago. I had no idea, but he was gushing.
What do you do? he asked. Apparently the photo came from an “event” I attended. I can only assume it was the launch of the new Juice Bar on Park Rd. There were some Panther’s players there, and it was a pretty neat little event. Apparently he just thought it was the coolest thing ever that I get to attend events like that. And it
is pretty cool. Sometimes we forget how neat it really is to be a blogger and what kind of opportunities come our way because of it.
>>With the “new year” looming, I wanted to let you guys know what to expect from this space. I have a lot of projects that are gearing up for launch (I’m excited!), so this space might look slightly different. I was a gung ho (uhm, so, I’ve never typed that out before. It looks weird. Right?) 5-days-a-week poster. I can’t keep up with that pace these days. So I will say this. Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, you will absolutely find new content here. I’ll leave Monday and Friday for bonus content if I have any. Sound good? Good.
>>Not to get all gushy on you or anything, but I honestly can’t express to you how much all the support the last few weeks has been. You make me feel like this is a safe space, that I can be as real and as candid as I need to be, and that I’m never going through anything alone. I mentioned that to my husband on Tuesday night. That you guys, my little tribe, have just been so amazing. I can’t thank you enough.
Now I have to go return a bunch of
mascara.
Ps…it feels really good to be back. Now link up with me and
Kristin to make us feel loved, okay?

So, hi. I follow your instagram and finally came to your blog…because I follow Kristin's blog and have been meaning to participate in this link-up and finally did, and I believe in AT LEAST reading the hosts posts…whew…that was a run-on sentence. So, I find myself here, and I'm picking up the vibes that you've been going through a tough time. I'm going to stop what I'm doing (after I type this) and say a little prayer specifically for you. Now, I don't know if you believe in prayer or not, but I always ask for positivity to find its way to you, so that can't be a bad thing, can it? I'm glad I found you.
Glad you're back. But Parenthood? Really? Ughh girl no. Xoxox – Amanda
I bailed on the Parenthood last season because it was the only one not on Netflix and Hulu adds are annoying! But I love that show and want to finish it, it brings up so many real emotions and definitely some tears! I'm a firm believer that TV can be great therapy! 🙂 Excited to see the new stuff your working on!
It's always difficult trying to get back into the swing of things after being gone. Still sending lots of hugs your way!
While I would agree that you shouldn't be watching parenthood right now, it is a feel good family show and once you get it done you can bibge others shows that are coming soon…like fuller house, etc 😉
Glad to see you back Joey! Hope you're doing ok and can get back into the swing of things soon.

i started parenthood a few months ago but only made it a few episodes in. should i start watching it again? maybe something to do with the leap year for your hashtag because february is the month that changes because of a leap year? i don't know haha.
I might take your T/W/Th approach.
And I'm excited to read about your goals for the year!
