Hey there long time no see, you might remember me as the girl that use to have that beach blog or even the girl that use to blog about soup. After an unsettling situation I decided to leave the blog world but then I missed it and decided I should come back in a somewhat anonymous fashion. Anonymous in that my last name will be in no way connected to this blog, and I still haven't decided if I even want to post a picture on myself on my sidebar.
Anyhoo maybe a little life update for those of you I haven't "talked" to in a while:
The Holidays: Were fun and stressful, I saw my sister, lost my phone in a waterfall, and spent the night in the hospital because that's how I roll when traveling. If I don't tour the ER and a hospital room it's just not a vacation (said with lots of sarcasm).
My 40 by 40 List: I'll post it here later in case you forgot all 40 things I was working towards but I've crossed two things off my list! Leave a note in a random library book AND make a new local friend. Go me on the friend making, I'm just glad she doesn't think I'm a weirdo stalker every time I ask her on a lady date.
A Trip to Michigan in the Winter: Let's be honest here due to certain members of my family I try to avoid trips to Michigan at all costs. However, my sweet grandmother passed away just after New Years so Little K and I made the trip up to the frozen tundra. It was a LONG drive there and a LONG drive back with a 5 year old but we made it. It was a sad time but we were with family we hadn't seen in forever and some good memories were made. We are a family more into celebrating a life and less into unbearable grief.
I'm know there are a thousand other little things I wanted to talk to you about but they escape my mind right now. I hope to do a better job of sharing them as I begin my new Kellibeans adventure.

So much to catch up on! Glad you're doing what's right for you. You could always blog privately (password protected), too, for more safety.
ReplyDeleteOkay so the ER - I didn't see any snaps from that. Glad you're okay. Sorry for your loss. I recently attended a funeral myself with family I hadn't seen in awhile and I was thinking "hmmm, if this occasion wasn't so sad, seeing these people might be fun." It's a shame that death is what it takes to make you reconnect.
And hooray for your new friend! I want to hear about the steps to get there... So happy for your success. I have a lunch planned with a longtime twitter friend today. Exciting!
I KNOW WHO YOU ARE! You must pay for my silence with embarrasing snapchats!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ;P
ReplyDeleteAhhh look who it is!!! I saw your comment on my blog and I was like wait....is that THE Kelli??? Glad to hear about your new friend! An ER trip does not sound like fun. And I am sorry to hear about your loss :( I am with you though, sometimes it is better if you can focus on celebrating the life rather than the fact that they are gone now.
ReplyDeleteSo gld you are back! Wondered what happened to you. Hope all is well. Glad you made a new friend!! So sorry for you loss.
ReplyDeleteYay! So glad you're back. I missed you!
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry about your grandmom but am with you on celebrating life.
Hurrah for a new friend! The one that has a kid the same age as little K?
I am so excited you're back! Sorry to hear about your grandma, at least it wasn't all tears or fights. Family can be rough.
ReplyDeleteP.S. I am so nosy and I want to know what happened to make you leave.
ha! i knew you couldn't stay away (just like me!). glad you're back; i also haven't posted any pictures (yet?) and debating on if i should. my new blog will stay off social media and i like it that way...except when people tweet my link and i'm like: OMG how to i get them to delete that?! lol
ReplyDeleteFound you! I wondered where you'd gone... I've been sort of a slacker with blog reading lately so I figured it was me missing you.
ReplyDeleteI have had some big job opportunities lately (nothing panned out) and it's made me think I should probably switch my blog to anonymous. Hmm...
I'm so oblivious! I didn't even think to check your profile until today and ta da! New blog. I'm sorry about your grandmother, but glad you're back. And I definitely understand the appeal of going anonymous. I'm still considering it.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry to hear about your grandmother. I too wondered where you went. I thought it was just me since I've been super spacey lately and everyone takes breaks and all that. Like Stephanie said, ".S. I am so nosy and I want to know what happened to make you leave." But if it's private, I understand. Glad you're back though! Love the new name and look!
