Changes

I thought I could get away with neglecting the blog for awhile, but a good friend texted me this week and said "get back at it sister!". It's flattering to know that people want to hear about my life, even if it is just my college roommate. :) 

Anywho, I've been dropping clues here, there, and every {social media} where, about just exactly what's been up.  It's funny how starting a blog and sharing your life makes you feel vulnerable. I'm sure it's something a lot of bloggers have in common. (If you don't feel that way, I envy you.) For the past few weeks I haven't been posting because I thought if I shared with the world what I was doing it would somehow all come crashing down. This is too good to jinx! (Am I nuts or what?) 

Welp, here goes nothing.

First off, I got a new job! Woohoo! A real one. Aka my first real real career path position since tossing my cap in the air 3 years ago.  I couldn't be more thrilled.  This one was worth waiting for, as they say. I am the new sales coordinator for Kimpton hotels in Boston! There are three properties and one restaurant currently. The company is fantastic, and growing, so I'm hoping to be here for awhile (fingers crossed).  Additionally, I've taken over managing the social media content for the area hotels. So, that means, you all need to follow me! Please, pretty please! Find me at all things @KimptoninBOS, including Twitter, Instagram, and FOUR Facebook pages (Hotel Marlowe, Nine Zero, Onyx Hotel, and Bambara).  The Kimpton voice is super modern, sexy, and fun; I love it. 

I cannot wait to ramp up into this job and continue to share my new, professional, social media adventures with you! 

Nine Zero won Best of Boston: Boutique Hotel during my first week at work! Snazzy! 

Secondly, next week I move in with the bf. I'm excited and nervous and anxious and thrilled and jittery all over.  Currently my apartment in Charlestown is half packed up and shit is just all over. I have too many frames. Does anyone need a friggen frame? Where did I get all these, I haven't printed a photo in forever! 

Back to the real topic at hand...the big move.  It's funny how reactions vary from "oh that's nice", to "ohemgeeeee but how will you go to the bathroom!?".  And, of course, the elephant in the room largest question of them all.  At this point, nothing matters to me except this moment. I am beyond excited for this next chapter.  Not to mention our new apartment in Cambridge is gorgeous.  (This will probably turn into a Suzie Homemaker blog for the next year...)  We've been looking forward to this for a few months now and the process was pretty draining at first. Deciding on a place to live is not always green grass and picket fence smiles.  But, we made it.  With a home I cannot wait to live in, with the greatest roommate ever. 

You would think I was overwhelmed with two big changes at once, but I'm so ready for it. I'm glad it happened this way. In a year when I can look back and think 'wow, I did that all', I will actually reach around and pat myself on the back.  Plus, I had my tarot cards read two weeks ago, and they said I was ready. This is the right path.  (I usually don't buy that stuff, but when it's something you want to hear, it's actually awesomely motivational!) 

Wish me luck, stayed tuned, follow me at work, and thanks for the love!
