I wish I had a more exciting reason for why I've been a little MIA lately, but to be honest... "going back to school" and "starting a full-time job" are the only excuses I could come up with. (Those count, right??) I mentioned this on twitter already, but about a month ago I started taking a few (four...) classes at a local college, and last week I also started a new job. Needless to say, I've been a little all over the place lately and feeling a bit scatterbrained. Everyone forgot to remind me how much "time" a "full-time" job really is, apparently........ ;)
Anyways, just dropping in. I know it's only Thursday, but I'm looking forward to the weekend coming up, of course, and wanted to wish you & yours all a good one!
Life does get in between from time to time - as it should be! Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteCongratulation on going back to school! What are you studying? Good luck balancing everything in your life right now.
ReplyDeletei'm taking some design classes. so far so good! :)
Deletei hear ya! those things are a little time consuming, yes? so what is this new full-time job?
ReplyDeleteYeah, those things definitely count! I just started in August as a first-time, full-time teacher at a middle school and I STILL am struggling trying to balance it with everything else going on in my life.
ReplyDeleteHope your new job is going great though, and that you're enjoying your classes!

Reasons as good as any. Hope your new job is exciting and fun and that you'll have some time to just rest between work, classes, blogging, living...
ReplyDeletecongrats on your new job! cute dress!
ReplyDeletegoodness, that sounds like a lot to take on all at once! I can't imagine how busy you are. real life comes first :)
ReplyDeletebeing busy is such a two-edged sword—i feel good but then i don't get around to the things i WANT to get done :)
ReplyDeleteschool definitely counts! congrats and good luck :)
ReplyDeletei can't believe you aren't finding time to blog... where are your priorities? ;) just kidding. i hope your job is so great you want to be there full time!
ReplyDeleteOkay, first, you look amazing. Dress, hair. Love it all. And school and new jobs are the best/worst--where are you working? What classes are you taking? Hope you're loving it!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely adore your dress - so darling + sophisticated. Wishing you well with all of your work! xo
ReplyDeleteThat's a pretty picture. I know how classes and fulltime jobs go together. They eat up all your time but I'm sure it's worth it :)

ReplyDeleteIt's nice of you to let us know what's going on. I miss your posts, but I started school and got a part-time job too, so I can relate!
ReplyDeletewhat a great dress would love to know where you got it!
ReplyDeleteThanks! It's a vintage dress I found at the thrift store last year :)
Deleteaww you look so pretty here!!
ReplyDeletecongratulations on the job/school! also, you have the most flawless skin!
ReplyDeletei wish! but thank you all the same!
DeleteFirst off, you are absolutely gorgeous!!! Second, where is that dress from!? Third, what are you going back to school for to learn? I've been thinking about going back to school too. I want to know how the process has been :)

I feel ya! But seriously - you are doing a lot. What are you studying? Hope you're remembering to take time to breathe x
ReplyDeleteoh you slacker ;) You're doing so much already, don't worry, we'll be around when you're done and ready to rock on your blog. LIke the others said, take some time to breath!
ReplyDeleteSounds like you have all sorts of exciting things going on -- good luck with all your new classes & job! Also, you're looking good lady, I love that dress;)

four classes AND a full-time job?! that's ambitious haha good for you!! that's awesome :) i'm sure it's a lot to juggle--i'm in school full-time (5 classes) and have 3 part-time jobs....so i can't even imagine. kudos to you for going for it! i'm sure you'll do great :)
ReplyDeletexo,

Wow, go big or go home! Hope you enjoy (and survive) it. I keep telling Matt he needs to call Aaron to catch up--maybe I was feeling the Johnson void from your less-frequent blogging;)
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful post!

p.s. you look super cute!
it's sometimes hard to find a good balance between all of the things that we tend to take on, but with a little time, it usually figures itself out. congratulations on the new job and best of luck in school!
ReplyDeleteleyla.

ReplyDeleteps. good luck with your full-time job..i'm getting off one.hehe.

lucky! ;)
Deletegood luck with everything you have going on! i'm always supportive of blog breaks here and there, probably because it makes me feel better that i keep taking them ;)
ReplyDeleteIt's always a real treat to see new posts on your blog. Even when they're infrequent.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with school and work! Those can be such an energy suck.
Your blog is beautful!
ReplyDeleteOf course these count! I've been struggling lately too, since college started again + my job and I just can't find the time for my blog, which I miss so much. I mean I still try to keep up now that there's not so much to do at the college yet. But I'd be full time blogging if I could! :-)

Those definitely count! I totally relate, I'm taking a few classes (actually, four also!) to finish my degree that I never got around to completing, and it's my first year full-time running my photography business. It's a lot, some days I feel like I'm running around with my head off. Take some time to yourself! The internet will always be here. :)
ReplyDeleteI've just stumbled on your blog via Pinterest today and I just want to say I absolutely LOVE IT!! Especially your photography. Keep up the juggling act as I now can't wait for new posts.
