February and March are so hard for me. It's cold (a day before spring and it's a Real Feel of 1 degree here in Chicago), it's dark, it's dreary. I honestly don't have much to say, as I haven't been doing much except working.
Last weekend was the first weekend that got the ball in motion for all my amazing spring/summer activities. I got to go home. To Long Island. To my people.
To some it may not have sounded like anything crazy. Friday night at local bar with friends. Saturday breakfast with Grandma. Saturday night engagement party for my middle school best friend. Home Sunday morning. To me, it was like a mental and spiritual reboot.
I was so happy to be with my people, and just relax, and dance Friday night away, and listen to my Grandma give me all the gossip of the people in town and at church. I was so happy to curl my sister's hair before she went out and then celebrate a beautiful couple and meet some new friends. I feel like I just got a fresh start.
So now I'm ready. I'm refreshed and looking forward to spring (even if it's still freezing) and all the amazing things coming up. And to sharing it with all of you.
