Apartment living is rough, but even rougher when you downsize from a 1,000sqft apartment to a 600~ish sq feet... What do I do with all of my things?!

I have a huge laundry room that can be closed off that has been doubling as my shoe storage, toilet paper storage, cleaning supplies storage and my towel storage. Know that moment when you hop in the shower and you realize you forgot to bring in your towel in the bathroom? Yep. Me.

Almost every girl dreams of having an actual diamond on her finger to show off.

The same night T and I got engaged, I asked him all the questions I could think of--how did you think of the proposal? How did you get it to work? Did you go ring shopping? How did you know this ring shape was exactly what I wanted?

And then... Is it diamond?

"No, it's not."

Oh. What is it?

"Some lab grown gemstone, it was in the link you sent to Gina who sent to Fiona who sent to me...I assumed you didn't want a diamond."

This is the reason why I never start a new year's resolution...

Something always comes up, people from out of the state visit and there's just way too much things to do when you're off holiday break.

At the end of the year, T and I decided that we wanted to start eating healthier (aka eating less junk food and making the slow transition to healthier ingredients in our home cooked meals) and eating at home more often...that was broken the first week of January due to out of state guests, but we never made it our official new years' resolution--because honestly, the phrase itself is already making me want to break it.
