I am trying to incorporate more creative activities into my daily life. During basic training and tech school I obviously didn’t have the time to dedicate to my art and crafts hobby, but I really missed it and have felt for quite some time that something was missing! So I learned to knit a couple weeks ago and have made three scarves so far using some specialty yarn by Rico Designs. Above is a picture of the one I just finished tonight. It is so much fun and an excellent way to relax in the evenings, I plan on moving onto bigger projects in the near future.

I’ve been dealing with a lot of stress and anxiety lately and decided I need to make some significant changes so I don’t continue to feel this way on a regular basis.
Here are some major things I feel I need to address:
- Living a more healthy lifestyle – reduce alcohol intake, make better food choices, and being more active.
- Volunteering at organizations I believe in – good for the soul :)
- Make better use of my downtime – spend time with friends, talk to family, create art, travel, and generally enjoy life!
- Continue to try hard at work, but understand that my job doesn’t define me – I am so much more than a title and a girl behind a desk!
- Get back on track spiritually – I miss attending church and shouldn’t be afraid to go, even if I’m going alone.
