Life Updates

Well all, it has been quite some time since I have posted and I will explain why. First, however Happy New Year! I hope everyone is on track to the rewarding lives you all deserve. So now down to business. So much has happened since my last post, I am not sure where to start. I found employment, then found employment again and today signed a lease to a new place. I think  in the near future I will feel as though I have finally settled into a new life here. 
I have also begun to take steps for my future career/community forming goals. This past Saturday I spent the day at a feminist legislative workshop which was perfect timing considering I will be meeting with State Representative Stacey Abrams for a second time in a few weeks and possibly attending an advocacy day at the Georgia state capital. I am very interested in politics at the state and municipal levels so it’s exciting to find opportunities to become more engaged in these spaces.  Adjusting to life here is still incredibly challenging. While I am an opinionated individual and I have no problem working in goal-centered spaces, I still feel pretty awkward meeting people. Making friends as well as dating has pushed me straight out of my comfort zone. Finding my balance in this particular portion of my life is definitely going to take some time and I am absolutely ok with that. I may expound on that at some point but I am still pretty private about my personal life. 
Writing this blog is helping me be more open but…, you know; baby steps. :-)
 With that said I will end this info-fest however, one quick plea to all of you if I may? Please vote this year, and I’m not talking about the presidential candidacy (although that is valid as well) I am referring to your state and municipal elections. Those are the ones which will truly impact you and your community. So yea that is all for now, everyone stay fabulous and let me know what you would like to see in a future post. Have a great week!
