Come Catch Up!

Holy Smokes I feel like I’ve been away from this little space for way too long!! I just got back from Blog Elevated yesterday and I’m excited to re-cap that soon and catch y’all up on everything going on!  Truth be told, I haven’t been able to catch up much on reading y’all’s blogs and although I was just at a Blog Conference, I didn’t spend much time actually on my blog.  Why?  Well… it’s how I process information.  I was getting all this knowledge and information that was exciting, but I needed the time to process it before doing anything with it so it was more stressful for me to be on my blog during our breaks in order to make changes here or there than to just enjoy the information I was getting and start working with it when I got home.  I firmly believe in doing what you think is best for you, and that was definitely best for me!  I’ve been jotting down thought after thought on how to improve this little space and how to plug deeper into your lives and I’m so excited about this new phase or journey or whatever you want to call it that I’m about to embark on!

What you can expect in the coming weeks?  New and improved stuff around here!  You may notice the changes or you may not, but I hope you do and you enjoy it.  I have a deep issue that’s been on my heart for some time now dealing with the blogging world and I’ve finally realized how I intend to approach that issue on my blog and inspire other women to do the same.  I want this to be awesome though and powerful, so I’m putting a lot of thought into it before I release it on the blog, you’ll know it when you see it though!  I will be bringing in sponsorships soon, but that’s because I know the direction I want my blog to go in and I need to offer sponsorships in order to do that.  I’d love for my blog to be roughly 40-50% business (ish) and 50-60% personal and informative as it always has been.  I’m excited about partnering with various companies in the near future and sharing some great products with y’all.  I can assure you that I won’t work with a company or person that I don’t agree with or support though, so it’s not a bunch of fluff, it’s me doing what I can to help a company/person get to where they want to be in life.  Just expect changes… but seriously, I’m working hard to make them all for the good.  I’m still me.  I still respond to every comment, every e-mail, every prayer request.  I’m still personal and I still love hearing about you and your life!

Disney Wine & Dine Training: This past week was some what of a bust.  I didn’t do my long run (7 miles) and I ate pretty terribly (most of the time).  I jumped back in yesterday though with a 3.5 mile run that went a heck of a lot better than I expected!  I have strength training today and a tempo run tomorrow.  I look forward to my 8 miles this weekend especially since the weather is cooling off! yipee!!

The dreaded job hunt: I still haven’t heard anything about the Marketing position I was excited about.  There is always still hope, but luckily I also snatched up an interview with a University in Mississippi doing program coordinating that I think I would really love.  That interview is a skype interview today at 4pm so prayers would be appreciated!  I know there is something out there for me, I just need to find the patience to get to that point.

Other life happenings: I enjoyed a splendid trip to Houston spending time with my cousin and her family.  That little monkey man is the most precious thing!  I have a sweet sweet puppy napping in the same room as me which brings a smile to my face.  It’s pouring rain here in Mississippi, but I’m loving it!  The rest of my days are being filled catching up on the blog and working on all these thoughts and ideas I have.

What’s going on with you?  Is there a post I might have missed over the past week?  Hook a girl up!
Happy Tuesday sweet friends of mine!
