Reformation

My job. My house. My relationship status.

They all have changed in the past two weeks.

This time in my life is proving to be more volatile than I had ever imagined. I am currently the caterpillar who just wants to curl up into my cocoon to be transformed. The tears, heart break, doubt and uncertainty, I am ready for them to disappear. The beautiful colors that encompass the butterfly, those are what I am ready to embrace.

Chopped, Clothing Style

I am addicted to the Food Network and my favorite show on the network is Chopped. What they do is put random ingredients in the chefs baskets and they have to create a complete meal using whatever is in the baskets. The chef that does the best/makes the tastiest meal is the winner!

So, combine that with the fact that I stayed up ridiculously late last night watching Project Runway on Hulu and you get this:

Classic Gray Sweatshirt/ Overalls/ Jelly Bracelets/ Corset Bag/ Ugg Boots

I think there should be a television show with the concept of Chopped (mystery ingredients) meets Project Runway, where you have to create a new, and clearly better outfit from the clothing items that you are given.

Winning television show, I think so.

Delivered

Convenience of home delivery is something that makes sense and it something that most people enjoy because lets face it, who doesn't like to get a package in the mail.

So when one of my friends wanted me to check out this company called Tonx which ships to your doorstep premium coffee,  I thought this is truly an interesting concept! It is difficult to find great high end coffee at your local grocery store. So why not have some shipped to you monthly.

Then I started thinking about it and wondered what else people can get shipped to their door... Then I found the one thing that I don't think I would enjoy getting in the mail, tampons.

Yes, Le Parcel ships feminine products to your door with happy surprises along with your monthly needs.

What other weird things do you think people will create to ship to your doorstep?

Table for One

Getting advice from others is terribly important. Gathering up information from other sources is a sound judgement call. However ultimately you, and you alone have to make any important decision that you are calling into question.

This can make you feel alone, well at least it makes me feel alone. I have to constantly remind myself that I have support. I do have to make decisions on my own, but that does not mean that once I make those decisions that others won't buy in and support me all the way.

So whenever you feel like you are simply sitting alone in your way of thinking, know that you truly are not and you do have support.

On a New Adventure

Life isn't about keeping the status quo. It isn't about feeling comfortable enough to get by from day to day. It is about waking up every morning feeling refreshed. Looking forward to the hours you are about to spend on something that will ultimately provide for your life through the form of money.

Last week, in one day I quit my job selling athletic insurance and put my house on the market. This was clearly not the safe, warm and fuzzy decision. It was hard, it was scary and still is scary. This decision was based off of the fact that I don't love insurance, I don't feel called to do it every day. I am however in the position where I can make those kind of decisions, I am not married and only have my dog Belle as a dependent.

I got offered a job in Atlanta by my friend Tessa where I will be representing a new line of photography for her as well as being an overall business manager. This is something that I will love.

The decision that I made to completely turn my life upside down was not the safe decision, it was the hard one. It will be the one that is the most rewarded though.

I am excited about my new adventure.
