Girl…you are in for the ride of your life. I’m not sure if you realized just how much your life would change as you packed your things and left your mom’s house behind in December. Yes, you know that an exciting adventure is on the horizon, but not to the magnitude that I am

This week was a whirlwind of emotion for me. I went from turning around a bad day (tips here) to having one of the best days! Yesterday, I was fortunate to have a guest post featured on Carly the Prepster. In efforts to avoid sounding too much like a fan girl, I will simply say
