It's So Hard To Say Goodbye...

Last week was my last week working at Dillard's.  It was sad and weird all at the same time.  I had made the decision a few months ago to completely turn my life upside down, but it hadn't hit me that the day was actually getting closer for everything to happen.  I felt like life was normal.  Little did I know, reality was about to slap me in the face. 

The Dillard's crew took me out to lunch at Juanita's Friday and then they had a going away get together for me that afternoon.  I seriously worked with the greatest people.  They are all so caring and so supportive.  They are the people I will miss the most in Little Rock.  I really don't know what I am going to do without Amanda.  We were always together.  You will definitely be missed!


My wonderful parents and sister, Bailey, came to Little Rock to help me move Saturday.  It was ridiculously hot.  The worst part was being in the moving truck.  As soon as you got in it, the sweat started pouring.  It was about twenty degrees hotter in there than outside. Craziness!  Sunday, Corey, Michelle, and Cameron came over to help unload the truck.  I have to say, everything is much more fun with a baby.  Mr. Cameron was so willing to get in the middle of everything and help!  He knew how to do everything.  Just ask him!  I seriously have the greatest family ever.  I don't know what I would do with out them.

This week, my goals are to unpack, get everything ready for school, find a job, and take Cameron to school every morning.  There isn't anything better than seeing this little face every morning!


I hope everyone has a great week and I will post again if anything exciting happens.  Oh, you know it will! HA!

New Beginnings

Welcome to my world!  I am not a great writer, so please bare with me.

I decided to start a blog following my new journey in life.  In the last month, I have turned my life upside down.  Growing up, I wanted to be a pharmacist and I have decided to go for it.  I have given it a lot of thought and prayer and I believe this is the path God has chosen for me.  My grandfather told me that when it is God's plan, all of the doors will open and everything will fall into place.  As of right now, that is the way things are going.  I am putting all of my faith in Him and will follow where ever He is leading me. 

I currently work at Dillard's, Inc. as a tax accountant until August 13th.  The 14th is moving day!  I am moving back to NWA and in with the parentals.  They are really excited that I am coming home.  I have enrolled at Northwest Arkansas Community College to get my prerequisites to get accepted into pharmacy school.  It is sad that I have a college degree and I am having to start all over.  I get to use a few classes from round 1 of college, but overall, I am short 45 hours.  I have given myself two years to complete all of these classes.  Hopefully, I will be successful in this endevor. 

This is a general overview of my plans and as the days go by, I will add more details.  Thanks for reading and I hope you will continue check back for updates!
