love, evy.

I’m looking/feeling crazy today. Ready to spend my spring semester living in the SBS building and library.

There’s something about the smell of my apartment that’s wildly comforting. Aged like an old library, fresh with the air from outside seeping through the cracks in the insulation, mixed with a hint of yesterday’s dinner, and the lingering scent of tobacco from the previous owners.

This is my home for now. My little nest.

1. First and foremost, my two beautiful nephews were born this year to two amazing parents (Lauren and Pablo). Their beautiful faces have a comfy home in my heart.

2. Moving into my first apartment with the love of my life, Bobby.

3. Deciding to finish my undergrad degree AND pull a 4.0.

4. Learning how to ride a bike! It took me 23 years, but I quickly learned.

5. Getting a job at Gamestop to help support the little home Bobby and I have created.

6. Being blessed with multiple trips out of town. As well as seeing Cass McCombs perform twice and he accepting a friendship bracelet from me. And FFF6 was too good!

7. Every trip ever spent at SPI. Whether is was Bobby, Bobbie and I locking the doors and playing card games until it was time for bed, or exploring pieces of the city. It was all magical.

8. Mastering the art of crochet. I haven’t picked it up in a while, but at the end of last year I taught myself and through the summer I became very proficient in the art of granny squares!

and last, but not least:

9. Deleting Facebook! I deleted it this summer and it’s probably been the best decision ever. I know it’s something small, even unimportant, but having to work that much harder at communicating with friends or learning about people’s lives have made it so worth it.

Today we celebrated Christmas with 5 different family’s. Pos little to say to know, I’m exhausted. …and I should really get to bed. Work tomorrow and I have a feeling we’re going to be busy with holiday returns.

P.s. I’m so absolutely, madly in love with my new kindle!
