That's what I am asking myself right now. Why in the world do I want to start a blog? Do I think I am Carrie Bradshaw? Nope. Do I wish I was Carrie Bradshaw? Possibly. But that's not why I am blogging. I'll explain...
You see, I turned thirty 15 days ago. Yah, its a big one. And I cant help but think about how everyone (and by everyone I mean all the people who are still in their twenties) have asked me if I was freaking out to turn thirty? My answer: "Noway! I'm going to ROCK my thirties!" Honestly, I struggled through my twenties. My twenties were filled with a ton of financial stress as well as all the insecurities that come along with being in my twenties. Does turning thirty make all of that go away? Nope. But this blog is going to help me to stay true to me stating I am going "rock my thirties."
So the next thing I ask myself is how exactly am I going to "rock my thirties?" Well, I am not quiet sure how or what I am going to do, but I do know one thing. All of my friends are married and are already in baby land or working on baby land. I am no where close to that. In fact, I am on a dating island, occupancy one. How I got on this island I am not sure (maybe I should stop calling my DVR my boyfriend..) but I got my paddle and canoe and I am going to work against the tide and make some changes. It wont be easy, and believe me I am very stubborn when it comes to change (possibly another island reason) but I am going to try my hardest to try new things and break all (some) of those bad habits that have got me to where I am today.
Not only will this blog be filled with all of my many (fingers crossed) dating adventures, but also all of the shenanigans as I try to make my thirties rock. Plus, I have an opinion on everything (hello again island) and I am more than happy to share my thoughts and on just about anything.
So, as I close out my first official post, here's a virtual toast to friendship, dating, losing weight, and all fun that is going to be my thirties!
