Took a nap earlier and now I can’t fall asleep 🙀 my body isn’t used to taking afternoon naps anymore! Does this mean I’m fully adjusted to being on the ground in one time zone permanently? I gotta say, having a set eating schedule and not munching on random snacks throughout the day has been as blissful as I imagined. Although I will admit I still drink soda (but less!!) I’m not sure I’m exactly “healthier” than when I was flying, but I sure do feel it. Now if only I could get some sleep!

I’m so happy to be looking from the ground up. It feels just as I imagined. Edit and update: I just posted a new blog post on my site! It’s about some things I’ve learned these past couple weeks of free time- aka unemployment. #blog #texas #houstonblogger

I think one of the biggest worries when quitting a job such as being a flight attendant is, “won’t you miss traveling?” It’s one of the biggest questions I asked myself, too. Kevin and I had to discuss the reality when I first started considering quitting. Because let’s be real, I’m not accustomed to being still for long. I’ve been traveling since high school and when I wasn’t, I was dreaming about it. So we had to discuss the very strong reality that maybe I’d go a little stir crazy being home for long. Thankfully I have a boyfriend that loves traveling as much as I do And a family that is planning vacations for later this year. So the answer is this: I can still travel. I can visit places nearby that I’ve never had the chance to. I can still plan trips for the future. It doesn’t have to stop just because I’m not working on an airplane anymore. So here are a couple of travel plans in my near future. -Canyon Lake in September, Kentucky for my boy’s @martinezthewise’s wedding in November, and our annual family skiing trip in December. Sounds like a busy rest of the year to me. Changing careers doesn’t mean having to give up everything in your life- it just means finding new ways of experiencing them. #ecotravel #travel

Today I went to my very first environmental summit. To say I was nervous would be an understatement, but I was more excited than anything else. I was- am- excited to find a community in Houston that shares the same vision. I’m excited to find a new purpose in life. I’m excited to learn more about our planet, its resources, and the organizations currently involved in protecting it! And man, did I learn a lot today. Information overload! 🙀 Jumping into a new field is quite terrifying! And going to a conference where you don’t know anyone is intimidating, but can also be so rewarding! My brain is pretty fried now but over the next few days I’ll try and share some more details on what the event involved! #houston #sustainableliving #ecoblogger #greenhouston

Just posted some big news on my blog! I’m kinda shaking as I type this from the nerves of making it public but it was time! Go check it out- the link is in my profile! Fly safe, friends! I’ll miss you!

So close to the goal I was afraid of getting whacked in the face. We’re both fine now, except for Kevin eating all the nachos.
