Where Have I Been?

Hi Babes,

I cant believe it’s been two months since my last post. I first want to apologize because I realize that I have broken one of my New Year’s promises… no ghosting. My life is filled with “Addie. Where have you been?” questions and I’m trying to be better at it.

So where have I been? Often when people take a break from blogging and/or social media, they return with tales of how renewing their time away was. I wish I could regale with stories of how relaxing and introspective the whole thing was; my time away from the blogosphere. But alas I cant. It started with me missing one post, then I missed another, then yet another one, and the next thing I knew it had been 2 and half months since my last post and I was lacking inspiration. I know, horrible reasoning, but it’s honest.

Things happened in those two months because of course life moves on. It will be a whopping 90 degrees this weekend in the nations capital, a far cry from the 40 something degrees it was the last time I posted. I am also typing this from my couch in my new apartment; very different setting from my bed back home. (More on this later.)

And perhaps the most important thing that has been happening in the last 2 months is that I have been living. I have been eating, and drinking, and laughing, and loving, and agonizing , and crying, and smiling, and budding, and did I mention smiling? The heart kind of smiling. I am super excited to be back to share it all with you babes, and I hope you’re looking forward to reading.

See you soon

Addie O.
