I’m trying to find a new balance in my life. I’m working more hours than I ever have before. I’m tired and every day my body is fighting to not get sick. It’s finally spring and I want to enjoy my beautiful pink tree-filled city. I want/need to find the time to write my blog and do all the things that go along with it that make me oh so happy – baking, eating out, designing my apartment (including keeping it clean), reading other blogs. I’m learning a new definition of what “weekend” means even. I’ll figure it out eventually. I’m giving myself time to learn the changes in my life. But when I do have the chance, I’m trying to surround myself with things I love. Just stop and enjoy the moment – hearing one of my favorite songs live, brushing up against a crush and feeling a middle school giddiness, eating a huge brownie sundae with friends, burrowing into my four pillows and finally crashing at night. Those are just a few of those favorite moments from this week. And right now I’d like to enjoy this chocolate chip cookie peanut butter marshmallow s’mores sandwich please and thanks.

I hope you’re having a great weekend whether you’re working, playing, or also trying to find the balance of both. Much love.

What a week. I got a new job (!) and announced I was leaving GW after over 7.5 years (!) I’m still a bit in shock about all of it.

More details to come about both of these things, but in the meantime I’m diving into another busy weekend…so many things to wrap up at work, a concert, a birthday brunch, karaoke, Oscar’s party, baking, yoga, coffee dates, trying to figuring out a mini vacation somewhere warm for early March, oh and sleep. And maybe a little lovely croissant/crossword break.

What’s on tap for you this weekend? Have any tips for making the transition from one job to another? Where should I go on vacation to lie in the sun and do nothing else?
