moving on out (not up unfortunately)

Remember when I said in my last post that things were a bit more settled? Well, I spoke way too soon. I've spent the last few weeks being surround by all of my belongings trying to purge and pack simultaneously. Needless to say, I've been buried under boxes and mounds of things I-don't-need-but-I-might-someday-so-I-better-hang-on-to-it-just-in-case.

{In the midst of the chaos}

Actually, truth be told, I feel like I did a good job of purging. I was more willing to purge when I realized I'm going to lug this stuff around for the rest of my life if I'm unwilling to get rid of it. That in itself was an incentive to pack a car full to take to Goodwill. 
I probably even cut the size of my closet in half (Which is a huge deal in case you don't know. I'm a recovering shopping addict. Jokes... Kind of.). I'm going to try to consign a lot of the clothes since I bought most of them when I worked at NY & Co. and they are in great condition (and may have the tags still on them).

Anyway, I'm moving in with one of my very best friends and her parents. I lived with them last summer when I got my internship, and they've graciously opened their home to me again. I'm extremely thankful, and they're probably tired of hearing me say thank you because I've said it countless times. But hey, it's true.

That's a small update for now. I'm going on hiatus with one of my jobs for the month of August (only because classes aren't happening for that month), so I should have more free time. I would say I'm going to blog more, but given the last time I said that can we really put much stock in what I say?
