Life has taken off

I'm not sure where the time has gone, I don't remember having this much trouble keeping up with everything when I was working and going to school... then I look around and realize I let a lot of things slide that I am still working hard at catching up on.

Can you catch up in a few short months on 2 years worth of "books to read when I'm done school"
I have shelves full of wonderful stories waiting to be experienced! I am so happy warm weather is here which means we can move this party outside! Yep wild and crazy lady here I have a stack of books and a beautiful red Adirondack chair waiting for me to sit in and read and enjoy the sunshine.

I also have recently purchased myself a classic cruiser bike, kitted it out with a basket, bell and coffee holder... yep I am walking awfully close to the hipster line I am trying hard not to cross... yep I enjoy "pour over" coffee too haha when I was in university we just called it "Drip coffee" cause the little cone was cheaper than buying an entire coffee maker! Maybe I was hipster before it was a thing...

I am trying to be more responsible with everything in general, meal planning, paying bills, remembering to return books back to the library, following up on things that "i should do" returning phone calls, reading and replying to emails, putting money into my savings account, eating better, remembering to put laundry into the dryer before it gets stinky, buying dog food before I totally run out, keeping tabs on my gas tank, enjoying what I have instead of looking to "get more", keeping in touch with people, trying to call friends instead of just texting them..... yep the list can go on and on... I think this is what some people call Being a Grown-up. I'm not sure how this list makes you a grown up, I know many that do not come close to maintaining a life of grown-up'd ness I have had many days when I don't want to get out of my pyjamas, I eat cereal for dinner and realize when I lay my head down on the pillow at the end of the day I haven't spoken 2 words to anyone including my poor furry roommates that trail around after me waiting for me to talk to them. So being responsible can be fun and fulfilling, it can also be tiring and stressful. I guess the balance is what needs to be found in order for sanity to be maintained...
balance... hmm I guess I should add Yoga to the list
