Quick Life Update: I MOVED!

It has been some time away, but promise I have a good excuse for why! Well kind of… I’m so excited to finally get back into the swing of things, and fill you guys in on everything that has been happening in my life. 2019 has definitely been the year of CHANGE for me.

Quick backstory incase you’re new around her.

I’ve been living at home since I graduated college (was never the plan) but sometimes the timeline you make up for yourself in your head doesn’t really go according to plan! Which in my case, was really hard for me. I’m extremely type A, and love to have everything planned out. Honestly, 2017 and 2018 were pretty tough for me. Like I said, I had my life all planned out to happen a certain way and within a certain time, and it definitely didn’t happen how I pictured it. Which sometimes is okay, and was definitely a humbling few years! I’m planning on doing a whole blog post about post-grad life, and kind of my thoughts about that!

BUT back to the point of this post! I MOVED INTO THE CITY FINALLY! After living in the suburbs for far too long, I cannot believe I am finally here! It’s so nice to only drive a few minutes to everything and finally be SO CLOSE to all my best friends.

I have officially been living in my apartment for over a week now when this post goes up. I moved into a two bedroom apartment with another Houston blogger – Erika! We both had been following each other on Instagram for quite a while, and it worked out that we both were looking at apartments and were wanting to move in within the same time frame! It’s so crazy to think about that 90% of my relationships right now were made online somehow! But, that’s just how it is now.

We absolutely love our place, and things are slowly coming together! Our couch won’t be delivered until March 22, so we currently have an empty living room with only our tv and two lawn chairs. It’s as glamours as it seems, haha. Moving is expensive, let me tell you and going from furnished college apartments to a completely blank slate is kind of intimidating! But, also kind of fun to start new!

So with moving, you can expect a lot of home decor content coming to The Blonder Life! My room will definitely be a work in progress for a while because I am so indecisive and keep changing up what I want and where! But I want to do as many posts as I can, and keep you updated on the whole shabang! I do want to take my time with this room though, and actually make my dream room Pinterest board a reality. It’s my first post-college apartment so I want it to actually be more “mature” and everything I want!

In addition to moving, I started a full-time nanny job to the BEST family! It’s worked out so well that with my hours I’m still able to work a lot on my blog and the store, and get everything done that I need to! My hours are only Monday-Thursday so Friday’s have been devoted to a full workday of emails, writing blog posts and shooting! I’m so lucky that I found this family, and that I’m still able to have time for my businesses. As I said, 2019 has had lots of changes so far.

If you’re struggling with where you life is at, or maybe things aren’t going as you had expected I PROMISE you are not alone on this! With social media and everyone’s highlight reel being blasted everywhere, I know it’s easy to get lost in that these girls you follow have these perfect lives. But, everyone goes through hard times, and no one has it all together! Have great week babes! Make sure you follow me on Instagram for the latest updates on my apartment and everything else going on!
