What a Difference a Year Makes....

Seriously, I think I can smell the icing in this photo!

A year ago I packed up my Escape, drove to Washington, DC and started a new chapter...I spent the better part of the year in a limbo of sorts...I called my first year a building year...I continually reminded myself when I couldn't afford to go to a concert or was missing out on a fun road trip to see friends or family that this was indeed a building year. 

This weekend I make the pilgrimage back to South Carolina to retrieve the furniture, books, SHOES, and Post-It notes left behind in a storage unit...see friends and family...eat some pizza at EVO...meet my cousin's baby for the first time...hug a few necks and enjoy a humid South Carolina day.

I have been neglecting my blog for some time now...but I feel a renewed creativity and have discovered some new hobbies...and personal missions in life...so I am revamping and recommitting to blogging....
My law school education will cost me a small fortune - it will take decades to pay off but I have plan...and it is NOT financially sound at all...in fact, Clark Howard would totally disapprove...it's more of a "fun for me" plan...so my blog now is going to be focused on paying back those law school loans...and attempting to climb the career ladder...so welcome to Owing Sallie Mae.
