An Outline of 2017


Lately, I've been thinking about all of the things that this summer is going to bring.  Usually, I am dreading the season because of the stifling hot weather Tennessee brings come June, July, and August, but this year it's different.  I'm letting myself think of all of the good things that those months are going to usher in:  fresh veggies, breezy clothes, graduation from college, and I'M GETTING MARRIED!
It's been a whirlwind since Christmas.  The holidays seem to pass with the blink of an eye in usual circumstances, but they went by at an even more breakneck speed this year.  Before I knew it, I had already bought my wedding dress, booked my photographer, had cake tastings, and started my final semester of college.  I barely seemed to have time to open a single book and relax, and because of that, I decided I wanted to do some things to help me slow down and take everything in.  
I usually don't make any traditional New Year's resolutions, but I'm going to make an exception this year.
Over the next few months, I plan to
○ take time with assignments
○ closely read things
○ find new hobbies
○ spend more time with family
○ stay organized
○ journal more
So far, I've kept with these few things and I implore you to try them out, especially if you're having trouble keeping up with what day it is.
