Finding New Normal

Being home for 2 and half weeks has some of ups and downs, been little bit of a whirlwind. Between starting wedding planning and slowly finding a job, which job hunting is not my favorite thing. And top of it this more of a tom boy of a girl is not really your girly girl of a girl and it makes dress shopping little hard and being undecisive of what I like dress wise.

Any lady who is reading this and have been married and been through dress shopping knows that finding The Dress is hard and finding the style that you like and fits your body. When I went in for my first dress appointment I had a small idea of what I thought I like or I thought I like. During the first appointment, I tried on a fitted dress just for laughs. With me being more curvy I was avoiding the fitted look because of being curvy. Some ways I liked the fitted look but I didn’t like the ruffled look of the dress, most definitely not the ruffled type. I ended finding my dress at the second dress appointment!!!

Besides the whole job search and wedding planning. I was able to spend the day with my man and ended up visiting my grandpa that I missed so much couple days while I was out on the Appalachian Trail. Its been 7 years since passed away and I still miss him. And not having him here to see his granddaughter and birthday buddy get married doesn’t help with him not being here. He’s one person that I want at the wedding, but I can’t and it makes me sad that he’s not around to see me come down the aisle in my wedding dress to get married. What else can I say? Life Must Go On!

Some ways I miss being out in the mountains, less stress. Ever since I came home there is some level of stress that I have been dealing with, either simi looking for a job or wedding or family stressing me about job/wedding/budget. And its not helping me at all or my mood. I just want to go back to the place that I felt at peace on the trail. And its the only place that I felt at peace on the trail.
