Fresh Start

Today was the warmest day we've had in months. High of 45!! If you don't live in the Midwest, this probably sounds insane to you. For the rest of my Midwesterners, hang in there, spring is coming! I always love signs of a new season. Today was the first day it officially felt like a new season is just around the corner. I was beginning to completely lose hope. But alas, the snow is slowly melting. Now our biggest concern is whether or not this city is going to flood, and if so, if it'll be worse than last year's 'Great Flood'.

I feel relieved and stress-free for the first time in a while. I'm trying to maintain a carefree attitude so that work, wedding planning, and my busy calendar don't negatively impact my mood. Also, because it's Lent, I have let go of some things that can help my new lifestyle. 

More veggies, less sugar. 
More exercise, less television. 
More homemade lunches, less eating out.  
More compliments, less gossip.
More solitude, less stress.
More simple, less complex.

I love this feeling of a fresh start. It was overdue.

So here's to a fresh new season around the corner and a new outlook on life.

xoxo,
Laura
