Today I was asked what I thought my life would be like in 5 years. It was difficult to answer. When asked that question 5 years ago, I most likely would have had a better answer than "I'd like a kid, but so far that's not working out, so I guess I'll just have a bigger cat."
I don't know what my life will be like in 5 years and speculating may no get me anywhere. I do know what it has been like over the last 5 years.
College Graduation. Marriage. Job Change. House. Cat. And quite a bit of coffee.
In retrospect, I've made some mistakes. I've also made great decisions.
Advice given was both good and bad.
Throughout your life you will always walk forward and look back. A lot. I am still young and inexperienced, but there is a lot that I have learned in my short life that no one bothered to tell me. I was a bit unprepared for adulthood. Heck, I was unprepared for my teenage years too.
To the X number* of people who may stumble upon this blog. I'm going to work to try and post. Advice and more likely random decorating and cooking ideas. And probably my cat.
* In this situation, X=0-5 people.
It is also highly likely that you (whoever you may be) are wondering about the title of this blog.
For awhile, I thought I may try my hand in small business ownership and create a bakery/cafe. It would have been called "No Nuts But Us" because it would be a completely nut-free environment as I am allergic to tree nuts. Peanut butter would have be used, but I would have kept it in a separate cooking/prep environment.
If you learn nothing else from reading this, please learn this:
PEANUTS ARE NOT NUTS.
While I don't have the bakery, my husband and I are crazy. And I don't have anything to do with nuts. Thus the name.
