who are you? (I am a walrus)
I spent much of my day sorting, washing, drying, and putting away laundry.
As I finished putting my last load away, I walked to my closet to grab four more hangers.
Glancing into the closet I realized something. It was full. Almost every item of clothing I own is currently clean and hanging in my closet. I stood there and thought about the evolution. Of my life. More specifically, my clothing. In the closet I now have the most perfect teaching clothes I could image. NY & Co. fitted button ups. Express dress pants. BCBG and Via Spiga pumps. A year ago it was cheap sweaters and comfy shoes for student teaching. The year before that band t-shirts and retro sneakers. Much has changed. More than the clothes. I've changed too. Evolved. I used to think I was upset about this evolution. I understand now that it was all part of the process. The process of growing up and becoming an adult. I'm confident that this is where I'm supposed to be. And I'm happy. Yes, it's a lot of work. Totally worth it.
Today I feel independent. Today I feel proud. Today I feel more like me than I have in years.
