I know that in the long scheme of things that 26 really isn’t
that old, but it’s weird how much I dislike the fact that I am now 26 years
old. I work at a medical school, and all those people who used to be my age or
older are now 3 and 4 years younger than I am… how did that happen? When did I
become so much older than the incoming college students (these are people who
have already finished their undergrad)?
Although I don’t like the fact that I’m not young anymore I
am excited for what this next year of my life will bring. There are so many
things that I am looking forward to in the coming year.
In about 8 weeks my life is about to change in a really HUGE
way. This year I’m going to become a mom, which is so exciting and so
terrifying all at the same time. I have always wanted to be a mom and it is
about to happen. Side note; I’m due next month! Granted, not until the end of
the month but it still seems so crazy that I can say that my baby is due
next month.
Now that I’m not in school anymore there are a lot of new
things that I have been wanting to learn. This year I think I want to learn how
to use Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator. I have used both programs before but I
only know the basics. I enjoy taking pictures and doing design stuff, so I
think I would enjoy learning more of the nitty gritty. Maybe if I really like
it I will take some official classes.
After our first year of being married I put together a book
with all the highlights from the year. My plan was to do one every year.
Currently I am a little behind since I haven’t made one for any of the years
since. I am working on getting the 2012 book done right now and then I will
have 2013 book left to catch up.
Blogging… I feel like I am still working on doing better in
this arena. However, now that Scott has officially been claimed by dental
school and studying I probably won’t have a whole lot going on that I feel the
need to blog about. I’m sure that once we have our little girl here I will have
a lot more pictures to post.
Right before I got pregnant… and super nauseous… I started
to get into a routine of eating healthier and getting in some quality exercise.
I quickly fell out of that routine when all I wanted to do was sleep and
veg-out on the couch. (I am really nervous about losing my pregnancy weight, so
as soon as I get the okay from the doctor I plan to jump right back into something
to get my weight back down.) I like getting into a routine, and hopefully I can
stick with something.
I’m sure there are a lot of other things to look forward to,
but those are the things that are on my mind right now.
