New Chapter

So, to clarify my title.  I have a dog! Crazy right?  I know. But I really love my dog so much.  We do lots of things together, and although this blog might be titled A Girl and her dog, it doesn't exactly mean I will be posting a bajillion explorations with Ruby.  Although it might happen from time to time. 

I moved today.  I moved away from Napa, and into Sacramento.  I moved.  Hardest move I've ever done.  Away from a life I built on my own, friends I made on my own, comfort, and all of those things.  And I won't lie, I cried... a lot tonight.  But it felt so good.  It's like I was purging everything out of my system, I was so angry months ago, then sad, then overwhelmed, then nervous and scared, and I never once cried.  I never let myself be emotional...because I kept telling myself that if I cried it meant I didn't like my OWN decisions.  But I know that's not true.  Ladies, even if there is just one lady reading this...don't let the world tell you that your feelings are wrong and your emotions are hormonal.  Don't settle for a life you think you have to live with because you don't want to disappoint anyone.  In the long run, you'll hate yourself for it.  I know, there will be hard times. There always is, that's not reason to leave.  I know that sometimes you just wanna run away, and that's okay to feel those things, but don't.  I don't pray much, I should....but I found myself talking out loud the other day...to what/who I'm not sure...maybe just to get it out of my head.  But don't forget about you while you are worried about everyone else.  Love yourself. 

Anyway, I moved, my life has changed so much in a year.  I hope you'll have fun following me in this next chapter in my life.
