It Feels Good to be Back

A possibly over-used sentiment but it is so very true, I am glad to be reunited with my laptop and my blog. I didn't realize how big a role my laptop played in my life until I didn't have it. A few months ago my hard drive crashed, causing me to pretty much freak out and lose a lot of things I had been working on over the last few months. You see, I hadn't backed up the last, oh, YEAR of my entire life..don't ask me how that happened, I will just say that when you are so used to having something so quickly at your disposal you tend to take it for granted. That was my relationship with my external hard drive. I must say though, now that I've been reunited with my computer I have been keeping that baby awfully close. I am almost obsessed with backing everything up at this point, I'm sure that will fade eventually but for now I am grateful to have the opportunity to create a copy of the things I hold most dear in case such a catastrophe happens again. The verdict is still out for my laptop's original hard drive (fingers crossed that my pictures and videos can be recovered) and I will hopefully find out soon one way or another on that case.

Anywho, so much has happened in the past five or so months that I haven't had a chance to write about but let's do our best to give a quick recap of some highlights... I graduated with my Masters in May...Woot! Currently the only pictures I have from that weekend are the ones on my phone..sadface. I really just want the pictures from graduation and my graduation party. Honestly, those documents are my only concern from the past 6 months, just because it is a milestone in my life and I would like to have the pictures to remember what an awesome weekend that was celebrating with friends and family.. Moving on, I became an aunt for the 30+ time! (counting mine and my husband's siblings' kids..). A gorgeous niece was added to the bunch and she is such a little diva! I lover her so much and cant wait until she's old enough for me to steal and take her to do girly things with. My husband and I both started new jobs, well I started a new job, he pretty much just changed companies. I am still transitioning into full adulthood and working all day five days a week is taking some getting used to . It is definitely tiring but it makes the weekends all the better. I definitely do not take them for granted anymore lol.

There are countless other small events and happenings, like my birthday/house-warming party and our family's labor day kickball tournament, but instead of looking on the past, I'm excited to look to the future. I have a lot of projects lined up and am excited to get back to writing and this little recap was just what I needed to get me back in the game. I look forward to sharing my new projects and things I'm learning along the way. I hope everyone's week has been great!

Positive affirmation for the day: "I welcome with open hands all the success that comes."

xoxo,
Cass
