Our Appetizer.: Where Have I Been

May 6, 2014

Where Have I Been

I cannot believe it has been 6 days since my last post. I have really been slacking with posting. My bad, life has been like a crazy roller coaster ride. A few  lot of new changes going on in my life and I am trying to embrace them as positively as I can.

Pictures from the start, almost every vacation and some of the best memories
Today is the 6th of May. Today marks what would have been 4 years with My Guy. Today should have been an extremely happy day. Today should have been filled with love, laughter and happiness. Instead, today is filled with work, a trip to the Apple Store to get a new phone and lots of wine to take the pain away.


One really exciting thing that happened is that I got my keys to my new apartment!! I've been wanting to move out of my parents house for some time now. I just want to see what I'm capable of doing on my own. I'll be posting pictures of my apartment once I get furniture. I've been trying to think positive thoughts these past few weeks and finding little quotes really helps. I found that amazing pair of shoes at Kohl's and I think my mom ordered them for me since they didn't have my size in store.


I'm a huge wine bar lover. I adore going to different wine bars and trying new appetizers & wine. I just love the atmosphere of wine bars and people are always so friendly. On Friday I met up with my friend Lavi at The Rock River Wine Bar for some appetizers and wine. We shared a flatbread and calamari as well as some wine. On Saturday, I met my friend Viorica for some pizza and wine at Humble Wine Bar. We shared a chicken and artichoke pizza. I'm usually not a fan of artichokes but they were amazing on that pizza. Plus it was really nice to sit outside. Saturday night I wore leather leggings for the first time and they were so comfy! I wore black leather leggings with a light blue button down and a white blazer.

So I might be going MIA again because I have so much work to get done at work and I have so many things I need to get done for the apartment. I promise to post about my apartment once I get everything delivered!

How have you been?
Do you like wine bars?
What is your favorite kind of wine?
Have you ever worn leather leggings?
Where do I get cute decorations for my apartment?

      I'm trying to keep myself as busy as I can to not think about everything else that is going on. So getting things for apartment is definitely helping. I just pray that things will get better soon.

    I know how it feels to want to move out of your parents house! I'm anxious to do so now but I will give myself a couple more months of saving! I hope you're able to get back to blogging consistently!

      I hope I am back to blogging regularly once I'm all settled in my apartment. I was hoping that would have been this weekend but things don't always work out in my favor.

    Thanks for opening up and being honest about your feelings. So many people can't do that, and it's refreshing to see reality. But I also am so happy to hear about you moving out of your family's home and trying things out on your own. I too have been trying hard to figure out how to move on and out with my life from their place. I'm excited to see how things go for you (amazing, I am sure)!

      Thanks! It is hard for me to put my feelings out there like this but I need to so I can heal. The move is going great and bad at the same time. Great because I'm so excited for this change and to be on my own and bad because of my darn furniture...I'll post about that another day.
