The past few weeks I have just been laying low. Memorial Day weekend was really great, I had a spa day and great food, good conversation and just an all-out chill-out session. This heat of Arizona is really no joke. I do everything possible to stay out of the sun at all times.. but that just means at home eating everything in site.. or at the mall buying everything in sight.. I blame Arizona if I am fat and broke by winter!
I have so many things happening in the weeks to come, that I am glad that the past month has been very low key. I have the sale of my house pending, then sorting all that stuff out via email and text! I have a possible trip to Bordeaux and Lisbon with my very precious friend..
So in the interest of getting integrated in the culture of Arizona – I joined a few things.
Ok let me give you a bit of background first: I never really made any friends here in PHX and the reason was because I never intended on staying. I always felt that I would very soon be moving to California and settle there. However life had some other plans in the short term and it seems I am here for atleast another year.. so in light of that revelation: I decided to join a girls Meet-up group. I also entered my name into a BUNCH of Volunteering opportunities.
Next weekend I will be helping a group called “new Beginnings” we are helping Single / teenage mums deal with their pregnancies in various ways. Counseling, supplies etc. I am also packing medical supplies for kids in 3rd world countries with “Project C.U.R.E” – and in between I have offered my help to a charity clothing store and the Phoenix Dream Center.. ermm over committed much? Meh.. you know me: Go big or go home! Ha ha
I will be travelling to Denver on Friday for a week.. ahhh fresh Mountain air and grass.. green trees.. cannot wait!
See you on the flip side of Colorado...
