2017? Where did 2016 go? This year seems like it has flown by with the only thing constant being change. Luke and I moved, I’ve been working on my BSN through an online program while working on an ortho/trauma floor, and babysitting. At this point, it seems like Luke and I are both putting in an extra 40 hours per week on the blog alone and it barely seems like we have time to breathe. It has been a trying time for our marriage, BUT we made it to 2017 and I feel like we’re better off and stronger for it. If there’s one thing I have learned it’s that marriage is about communication. It’s simply a must. There have been times where we both have been on different wavelengths and sometimes we just have to sit down and hash it out.
I feel like I have set pretty lofty goals this New Years for myself and this blog for 2017 (more to come in a later post), but I think they’re achievable. I want to start 2017 off right and vowed to be more organized in my posting/ social media while exploring new ideas so that I can find in my niche in this crazy world we call fashion. I’ve been gearing up for New York Fashion Week and, honestly, I cannot wait! Luke and I visited NY in 2015, which you can read about it here, and I immediately fell in love with the city… Maybe that’s why I love Charlotte – Not saying Charlotte compares to anything like New York, but my husband always says Charlotte’s claim to fame is that it’s the 2nd largest banking city behind NYC and in his mind it is a close second 😉
I hope everyone has had a safe, relaxing, and fun holiday and ready to ramp up for the next year. I have a feeling this one is going to be great 🙂 What are your plans for the New Years?
Here are some snaps of my adorable nurse friend and I getting ready for NYE.
