It's a Wonderful Lie

I'll be investing in this book as a bit of something to lean on while I realize that my twenties weren't all I thought they'd be cracked up to be.

Spinning my wheels again

After a severe hiatus of being the Spinster you all know and love (well I never stopped.. just stopped writing about it), I'm back in the game. After what I thought was a whirlwind of my life finally coming together, turns out I was wrong. It's back to square one. I don't even feel like it's a new chapter, I feel like it's a brand new book but I have no idea what the subject will even cover.

After eight of the most stressful months of my life back in school and working full-time, going through a complete break up/break down with OOMA, seeing three of my very best friends getting married one having a baby, while countless others moved away, I feel a bit left in the dust.

Everything seemed to be moving forward, upward, onward... for everyone but me. It's time to take a several steps back and start fresh. What I'd LOVE to do is move to an entirely different state... break free of anything I've ever known - but I can't do that. I don't have the financial stability for that, or the support of my parents to do so (which still matters quite a bit to this single twenty-something girl).

So what's the plan, you ask? Moving back home - with my parents. The last thing I thought I'd ever do in my entire life. The last thing I want to ever do in my entire life. The year I moved home with my parents after college was quite possibly the most stressful year of all our lives. But, it's the only place I can go to get my feet back on the ground (for free).

The job thing didn't work out. The love thing didn't work out. So, here's to new beginnings in hopes of finding something that does work out.
