As I sit back and reflect on all that has surpassed in these
short 10 months since moving to Fargo and even the journey through my doctorate
and tenure as Miss WI USA, I am amazed at how much I have accomplished. More
importantly, I am trying to take a moment to breathe, meditate, and appreciate
my journey thus far. I have honestly been on the move for 6 years constant.
The other night while watching television with the fiancé, I
exclaimed: “What should I be doing right now!” You see, in the past, it was a
rare occurrence that I ever watched television or read books for leisure.
Slowly, I am making these changes in my life, and I think it is good. I must attest
that after that statement I arose to continue work on the wedding program.
There always seems to be something wedding-related to be done. Although I have
a fabulous mother who has done awesome and a wedding planner, I must admit that
I am still trying to manage from the sidelines. I am going to promise to sit
back and relax (with a few adult beverages) the day of the wedding. I pinkie
swear (with my toes crossed, lol). On a positive note- a few hours ago I got
returned from signing my contract for my first REAL job! Sure, I have had summer
and part-time jobs before, but this is career-- not simply something I am doing
for a few months. Next week I plan to deposit my dissertation and then I only
have six more weeks of my internship! So in honor of these celebrations, I picked up a six-pack of
Summer Shandy and placed two lawn chairs on our balcony. I am simply awaiting
my Love!
But seriously, I need some tips on ways to relax. What do
you to unwind?
Here are some things that I currently do and one’s that I am
thinking to pick up.
