Life Lately

Wow, well it’s been about two weeks since I’ve put a blog post up. I’ve been so busy with moving into my dorm, starting school, and on top of that have been dealing with some family things lately. I hate making excuses for not getting posts up, because my blog is so important to me and I like to put a lot of work into it. Sometimes, though, you just have to take some time for yourself, and take a step back for a little bit. I’ve just been in a bit of a funk recently, but it is time to get out of it.
Do you ever just get those random times when you get so overwhelmed with everything, and every little thing you need to do seems so daunting? I guess that’s what I’ve been dealing with lately, and unfortunately my blog got put on the back burner. You can’t stop life, though, so I just need to start getting back into the swing of things. This weekend was spent organizing my life, and getting my schedule figured out again for the school year. 
I didn’t realize just how stressed out I was until Sunday, when all I wanted to do was stay in bed all day. Anxiety can be a nasty little beast sometimes, but I feel like I have a handle back on my life again. It’s so nice when you have supportive friends and a wonderful family to lean on when things get a little crazy. I just talked to my parents for a while, organized my living space, and got a handle on my schedule. Making sure my life is organized and clean is one of the ways I get my anxiety under control. When I feel like I have control over some of the things in my life (I have realized you can’t actually control everything about life), I feel much more at ease. I know that’s true for a lot of people, but sometimes it can be hard to get out of weird funks.
I just wanted to do a quick little life update and let you guys know that I’m still alive. I have a lot of ideas for more fall-related posts, and just blog posts in general, so I’m really excited to resume with regular posts!
Thank you so much for reading, and have a wonderful day! 🙂
