Apparently it is 2013! I think that's a fitting time for a comeback! I know I have been away too long but good things come to those who wait.
So much has happened since we parted ways and I'm not sure where to begin. I think I'm just going to hit the high points that way we are all on the same page!
Business - I'm a woman of the world and have started the adventure of becoming a business owner, event planner and regular jack of all trades! All I can say is I have learned a lot about myself and other people. I'm working my way through challenges and celebrating successes! Stay tuned people there will be plenty event planning, consulting, and writing for you to hear about.
Engagement - so I accepted an engagement ring over the Christmas holiday. Like 51% of Americans I am getting married. For better or worse is what they say but for the record getting engaged apparently means you also open yourself up to assumptions, unsolicited advice, opinions, and so much more than just congratulations and well wishes. You would think with so many people doing this every year it wouldn't be this big of a deal. All I can say is no we haven't picked a date, no we don't know where, when, or how. When I know I'll tell my family and those invited (in that order) other than that you'll just have to read the cliffs notes or follow me on twitter @LMcordier
House hunting- my blog has been full of complaints about apartment living. But now that I'm about to be a part of a 2 income household so that dream is on the verge of being a freakishly expensive reality! What is freakish is my excitement (not our budget...I still have sense)!
Hair today, gone tomorrow - this may not mean much to you but this past month my hair dresser of 18 years moved to Michigan. I am devastated (clearly as I am writing about it on my blog). Finding someone else I trust with my hair is going to be a challenge. I knew this day would come but I was hoping it would be when I was retiring to a nursing home and didn't care about my hair anymore. Lena King you will be missed my hair owes you a ton of gratitude! It will never swish the same...
Vacation - I am finally going on vacation this year. I was in need of a trip and a reason to workout so I decided to kill two birds with one stone. This year's vacation destination is Punta Cana, DR. My passport, bathing suit, and bikini body will be ready. I don't like using the f word without a French accent but this is in print form so I have no choice, yes my fiancée is planning to join me and we are going to party like unmarried rock stars!
My president has been inaugurated again...just let it marinate!
iPad apps – I found blogger for my ipad so I can now write from the comfort of my bed, coffee shops, doctor office waiting rooms, or any other place I deem necessary. This means you get my random thoughts as they are happening not after the fact. Get excited, seriously you should be excited!
Anti-Ruzzle - the new craze sweeping the mobile games nation is still on my no fly list. For now I'm just going to stick with games I know and can trust, at least until I run out of people to play. I'm good and have no desire to switch to the hottest trend. Me, Words With Friends, and Oregon trail are doing just fine.
Aside from a few thoughts on ESPN's attempts to be the Washington Post (just report sports and not Catfish scandals you created); the media's ridiculous obsession with lip-syncing by a woman who we know can sing (Beyoncé can buy America twice over so who cares); and the flu running wild because people are anti-vaccine (be sick if you want to), I think we are all caught up! I also think that was the longest sentence ever!!!!!
It is good to be back!
