Monday Rx

what is worse than waking up and checking your email at home or at work on monday morning and its full of spam, drab business correspondence or bills you have to pay? how can you make this a more enjoyable task? change your template!

many email platforms have fun templates that you can apply to spice up your inbox. whether its just a change in color scheme or an all out panorama (i'm a fan of the cartoon ninjas myself), its a quick shot of color and personality each time you open your inbox.

and this is a change that doesn't have to stay with you long. unlike those hasty bangs you cut on a whim, you can easily explore different colors and styles.

so go forth and be productive in style!

Thought

things are happening so fast, and i think i just slowed down enough to let it hit me: i'm getting married. like, married. like live with your husband, sleep in the same bed, watch eachother go to the batheroom married. i know they say the first year of marriage is the hardest, but they also call it the honey moon stage. can those two really coexist? is there any struggle-free portion of the honeymoon stage thats just sweet?

but i know myself. i will worry myself into a corner and not appreciate the good in a situation (even one as AWESOME as getting married to a wonderful man like chris). and i decide right now to not be affraid. i can be aware and mindful of the labor pains that come with two individuals birthing a new life. but i can also rejoice in that new life that is ours; the one that we get to shape into whatever we want.

so later for fear. and hello to soberness about the weight of this decision and joy that we have such agency in making it amazing!

Change In The Air

So, I've been gone for a while, but I'm back. And buy do I have a lot to talk about.

First- I matched in VA for my residency program! I'll be a doctor in May and on my way to delivering babies with the best of 'em!

Second- I am moving! We are buying a home! From an HGTV junkie, please believe I am SOOO excited.

Third- Save the best for last... I'M GETTING MARRIED!!!!! Chris proposed last week!! I'm so stoked. So many things changing all at once.


So, in my pursuit of divadom, I will be investingating the best ways to maintain style and class while gettin' it all done! So let the games begin! Growing up is going to be so much fun ;)
