I've fussed with colors and fonts and layouts for the past 6 months convinced I wasn't ready to talk about my business, but who is ever ready?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When I graduated college, I knew I wanted to be a freelance writer and in the middle of the pandemic last year, I finally took the plunge and registered Keeping Up with the City as a bonafide business.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I'll still continue to blog, but now I'm going to be helping other scrappy business owners develop content for their websites, blogs and social media.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I can't believe after all these years, I am finally living out my post graduate dream of being a freelance writer. And it's all thanks to this little blog that started as just a hobby. Not to mention all the beautiful souls that have helped me along the way.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Proof that it's never too late to go after your dreams.

Shifting, changing, adjusting. It's been a long few weeks of adjusting. From a home remodel and rekindling old relationships to going back to work full-time and running a business, I wonder if I've bitten off more than I can chew.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Uprooting my entire environment wasn't as easy as I thought it would be. Even though my home was, and has been, under construction for several years, choosing to upgrade my space required a feat of trust. Trust that I would adjust, trust that this change is for my highest good, and trust that this shift was my next step towards the life I'm manifesting for myself.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Killing the self is never easy, but it's a necessary step toward progress and self actualization.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

A very happy 5th birthday to my little Charley bear.

When I adopted Charley, I was initially looking at another dog and had this pretty girl not caught my dad's eye, I'm not sure we would've ended up together.

We initially thought she was sweet and cuddly, but over the years I have learned that Charley is incredibly sensitive, rambunctious, silly, and yes, awful sweet.

To my original roommate: happy birthday. 🎂

And to the staff @kcpetproject, thank you for bringing me and this little girl together.

How 'bout them CHIEFS??? ❤️💛❤️💛

It's weird to think that about this time last year, the @chiefs were competing in the Superbowl for the first time in 50 years.

Around this time last year also marks the last few weeks of unmasked freedom before the Pandemic.

This year looks pretty different, but I'm glad to see that one thing hasn't: THE CHIEFS ARE GOING TO THE #superbowllv BABY!!! 🏈🏈🏈
