Rustling Thoughts

*coughcough* totally has this clickbait thing down. I almost dropped my only lens into my tea trying to get this shot so, *sips tea poshly* enjoy it. (yes, ‘poshly’ is totally a word, shush.) Stats: Entry Pageviews United States 532 Russia 201 Ukraine 38 Germany 24 Ireland 17 United Kingdom 9 Canada 7 France 4 Latvia 4 Netherlands 4 Happenings: 1. The final Beauty and the Beast trailer came out. We all desperately want to see it. Gabe doesn't though. *shakes head* IT’S SO PRETTY! 2. The super bowl happened. Don’t ask me whose side I was rooting for, bc I have no idea (and didn’t even pay attention for the most part). We had several families over from Church for fellowshipping, and so that we would have a reason to watch the super bowl because Christian is pretty much the only one who follows sports. Ah, but we had a beautiful sunset that night! 3. Clare

I find it hard to believe I've stuck it out this long. Like, every time I try to start a chronicle of my life, it only lasts a few months, maybe a year. Yet here we are. Another year done. Wow, this is starting to sound sad. I'M NOT LEAVING OR ANYTHING.  THIS IS NOT A FUNERAL.  LIGHTEN UP FOR GOODNESS SAKE. *scratches head* How'm I supposed to celebrate this anyways? Confetti, I guess. And I suppose I could get Gandalf to blast off some fireworks. But seriously though! I'm so happy with the way this blog of mine is working out! I'm so incredibly grateful for the friends I've met and made through blogging (we will figure out a way to meet up, I promise!). You have made me step out and find my voice. You have encouraged me and put up with my cringey first attempts at blogging and writing. In general, I feel like I've stepped out of my comfort zone and become a more lively person because of blogging.
