yes, I am still alive!!!

It's been FOREVER since I posted, but reading the blog of a mom from school made me want to start blogging again.... Plus, I have some exciting news:

So I am taking charge of my Singleness! I recently read a book I bought at a Christian bookstore called Table for One about enjoying being single and not putting your life on hold, so last week I went to dinner by myself! This may not be a huge deal to you, but it is to me. I even sat without my back to everyone (which was my initial instinct) and NO ONE looked like they felt sorry for me! I feel like I am living, not waiting for life to begin.

I also decided that with my 30th birthday around the corner, I would try to come up with a list of 30 reasons it's great to be single. I have 28 currently, and the funny thing is, I came up with four and the other 24 were given to me by my married friends! There are things to be thankful for that I never even thought to be thankful for! I'll post the list when it's completed!
