My New Life.



                   My new life has begun and it has already shown me in so many ways how truly lucky I am to be on this adventure. At first being over 2,000 miles away from home was an adjustment. It's been 2 weeks since I left little ole' Lake City and started the journey west. Although I'm not completely adjusted to my new surroundings and atmosphere, I am truly happy with the decision I've made. I have started my new job at Pinnacle Security as an Inside Sales Scheduler, which basically means I schedule the appointments for the technicians to go and install the security systems into peoples homes. I love my job and I have been blessed to be trained by great people. The atmosphere is a positive environment and I am constantly learning something new. My aunt and uncle have so graciously let me stay with them until I move into my apartment next week and I have felt so loved since I got here. They are such amazing people and their hospitality has been wonderful. I miss home, but I know that this is where I need to be. Even though there are over 2,000 miles between me and home everything still remains the same. My mom is still a rockstar and I talk to her almost every day, my best friend is still my best friend and I am so proud of her and the strength she has given me through this whole process. Things here are different. My skin is a little drier, my time schedule is two hours different, I have a new job, and in the midst of all the crazy I have seemed to have found a new sense of self and happiness.

A Letter to Asher Rae.

Baby Asher, Your momma is currently in labor and in a few hours you'll make your grand debut into this world. From the moment I knew you were coming I was in shock and how much my heart could grow. I work with sweet children all day and I love them so much. The love I already have for you is so different. You'll be the first grandchild of my parents, and you'll be my first ever niece. You're coming into a world that is incredibly hard and difficult. With your amazing parents in your life you'll be taught how to be strong and to be valiant in all circumstances. Your dad, my brother, is an excellent human being. He is dedicated, he is a dreamer, he is a hard worker, and he will be the most amazing father. Your mom is so beautiful. She is loving, she is patient, and she loves your dad so much. Your grandma, my mom, is SO excited for you. She will love you and spoil you, but she will also help you when things get hard. Your Grandma Forsyth is a tough woman. The toughes...

COVID

The world of COVID-19 has been a world I never imagined possible. While this time has taken away so many things I am grateful for the things it has given me. I've found my new normal and for someone who loves structure that has been a huge relief. I don't feel the need to do as much. I don't feel as rushed. I dropped my ipad on the tile today and cracked the screen pretty badly and I didn't even cry. Things have become things and my trips to Target don't seem as crucial anymore. I've been sewing. I thank my grandmas and my aunts for their love of sewing that is now ingrained on my heart. I watch a lot of TV. I do a lot of cooking. Who knew?

Good Ole Sundays

So usually my Sundays consist of the same things: church, lunch, nap, dinner, and homework. Today was not the same, and it has made me crazy. So to start off my lovely Sunday, we only had church for a hour. Some of you may know why, but for others here is the explaination. While our beautiful building is being built, we go to church in 3 metal buildings. Only one of these has decent insulation. Since Florida has decided to become Antartica, it was quite cold, causing us to only have one hour of church and not three. Lunch was wonderful, and was quite normal considering the rest of my day. After lunch I walk back into the kitchen and find my mother humming a lady gaga song. I never understood her amazingness fully until today. So then comes naptime. Oh how I LOVE naptime on Sundays. So I go lay down and start watching tv, and I couldn't sleep. GREAT. Then finally after about 2 hours I fall asleep, and wake up ten minutes later. Just dandy. I was not a happy person to say the least. ...
