Hey y’all! Welcome back. Long time no talk.

So, today is going to be a bit different. I know it’s been a while since I’ve posted, so I figured I’d give you a life update, tell you what’s been going on, where I’ve been, and what’s to come on the blog. Without further ado, let’s get into it.

How am I? Well, that’s a loaded question lol. I’m okay in the general sense. Health wise- it’s still a work in progress. I’ve had a bunch of records sent over from UTK to my specialist here in Atlanta and I’m waiting on the appointment and tests to follow. But, I’m managing. I’m still losing feeling in my legs and the sensation has migrated to my hands. I’m trying to be a little more active to see if it’ll help lessen the pain (the jury is still out). I’ve been so busy with my Rover sitting, it’s absolutely crazy. It’s safe to say that’s been booming and keeping me busy so I’m not dwelling on what the diagnosis could be. The doctors think it could be a cyst on my spinal cord or something called a Chiari Malformation, which could’ve led to a Syringomyelia (a fluid filled sac in the spinal cord itself). We won’t know for sure until all the tests have been done and evaluated. All of this means, yes I am still not flying. I do miss it.

What have I been doing? Shoot. I’ve been doing so much. I’ve been doing a bit of reading and rereading, I’ve been heavily working on my book. I’m over a hundred pages written and it’s been absolutely incredible. I’m dog sitting a lot to keep myself occupied and I’m learning German! I’ve also been playing a bit of CTR and LEGO Harry Potter. Plus, training Parzival has been crazy. I’ve definitely been occupied. I’m so sorry I haven’t sat down to write a blog in a while, I just haven’t been feeling any I’ve tried to sit down and write, so I took a break and focused on the book and my health for a little bit. Being busy has been great for me. I’ve also learned a lot about myself. I’m a healing empath, who knew? So, I’ve been doing a bit of research on what that means and how to cope with it. It’s so interesting! I’ve learned so much about the process, the knowledge behind it and how to control it. But, it’s also helped me tap back into that creative side, so expect more blogs and lots of content. I’m really pushing myself through the end of the year. I’d love to reach 50 followers on here, but we’ll see.

What’s coming for the blog? A LOT! WHEEEEWWW! I have been gathering ideas that I love and that I’m proud of. I also have a new writing space in my room! I’m gonna attach a picture below. It’s given me a renewed sense of purpose and an opportunity to get lost in writing, whether for the blog or my book. It’s also super cozy for reading, so I hope you’re ready for reviews! Don’t worry! The blog will still focus around books, traveling and my life as a flight attendant, but I’m also going to include other things I love such as skincare, hair care, makeup, and things I use or do in my daily life such as Duolingo, Rover etc. I’m going to try to post at least 3 times a week, but I’m shooting for 5. What days are the best for you? Would you prefer M-F? Or MWFSA? Let me know below! I want to cater to you all that read and enjoy my blog. Any books you want me to review? Any books v movie you’d like to see? Let me know any and everything you’d like to see!

For those keeping up with my book, I’ve posted up through chapter 16: https://www.wattpad.com/752911180-somewhere-over-the-clouds-introduction
