Starting Fresh

So today after being away from this blog for 2 years I decided I needed to start fresh.  I deleted the old and am going to start here...

My life has had it's up and down's and I feel that I have come out of all of it a pretty "normal" 26 year old female with passions and dreams I do not know what to do with.  So in a pursuit to find happiness and fullfillment in my everyday world I feel it's a great idea to share it with others.

So here is a little bit about me..
I am Amanda and I am 26 years old.  I will be 27 in November and seriously every birthday is getting harder.  In the last 2 years I have made many big life changes that someday will hopefully pay off.  I have quit my job (that I loved as a Child Life Specialist) and returned to school to become a pediatric Nurse.  And through the up's and downs of this process I have found that sometimes it's better to take the long road around because you never know where it may take you.



I recently moved in with my boyfriend, Jered, of a little more than 2 years.  We live in a nice apartment in a nice little community.  We are learning how to live together and make this white walled apartment our "home" together.  I could not be more happy about this important choice in my life.

Oh and I amost forgot the other love of my life.  Lola.  I rescued her about 3 years ago in June 2007.  She has taught me a lot about life and reminds me everyday that a little cuddle with Lola usually makes the bad of the world go away for a few minutes!  She also has more personality that really any little dog will ever need.  But Lola keep's me on my toes!





So my hopes of this blog is to share my life experiences about becoming an adult, living with the love of my life, expressing myself, losing weight, and learning to love myself because I am the only one I am going to get!
