Adult-ing is hard.

Hi everyone.

I missed writing. I missed my blog. I missed the freedom of speaking my heart out without pretense or diplomacy. I miss everything about being me. It's funny how much marriage can change you as a person. You just don't have the same kind of time anymore. And once you have kids (which I am not even thinking about at the moment!), I can't imagine having any time to myself.

Work is almost coming to an end. My contract was until the end of August. I have been on the job hunt since July, trying to get another position to enhance my skills in HR. I was in the shower thinking about random stuff - yes, that is the place where we get deep about life. Here I am thinking... I just set foot in HR and I have got to start at the bottom. I am turning 26. If I am at the bottom now, when will I reach an intermediate level? I guess, when I am 30? When will I achieve what I have been dreaming about for years? When I am 35? And where is the time to have and raise kids between all these dreams and ambitions?

And who are you kidding? No matter what you say, there will always be discrimination for mommies wanting to join the workforce again. Not everywhere, but it still exists. All these thoughts have been haunting me lately.

To add to the chaos, we are MOVING! We have purchased our first home :) YAY! But it's a lot of work, money, time and patience. I am so happy and proud that Nish has given me a dream house. And now, I will make it into our home. A final place to be. We were having way too many storage issues in our condo. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely LOVE our condo and would even keep it as a rental property. But it's time to let it go. Plus, we could really use the money.

The moving, packing, builder's appointments, decor appointments and all that has been keeping us quite busy. This is why I haven't had a single weekend to myself lately. And poor Nish had to work for 14 days straight without a weekend off. You gotta do what you gotta do right?

Anyone want to come help me pack? I don't know how you pack your life into a couple of boxes. And anyone who knows me will know that 5 boxes will be JUST makeup :) lol.

I have a lot of things I want to write about - lessons learned from work, some personal stories I want to share, and many more. Someone nudge me everyday and ask me to spare a couple of minutes to get this going. I really missed this!
