As of late...

Lately, I have encountered a four letter word. This word can be ugly, simple, complicated, beautiful, and overwhelming. This word is LOVE. One might ask, how is this word all of these attributes rolled into one? The truth is that LOVE has no definition. Think about it. What would YOU assume the definition of LOVE would be? Well, I helped you.

The truth is Love is found in so many ways. Love can be found in our everyday interactions with God, our friends, and family.

I have found love in so many venues lately. 

One venue is Trivia.

*Trivia is perfect since meeting my new Quiz master, Holland. He is awesome, and makes trivia via "TRIVIA TIME" super fun. We play in East Nashville on Mondays and Thursdays @Drifters and @ThreeCrow.

Two is East Nashville. ...... I can't say enough about my beautiful, eclectic, community. 

Three is my boo Mika

I've fallen again, and I like it (wait, love it ). 

Give me Coffee 8 to 5

HELLLLOOOO Nashville!
   Life Update:
1. I am one of the few lucky ones post-grad that has a job in my field in under 6 months.
2. I have a boyfriend...I know people...I'm as shocked as you are.
3. I'm out of the little city and am loving my area of town...I just need to get out a little more.

The real world sucks. I sat here writing this sentence over and over in about three different metaphors and trying to put a witty spin on how I felt. The truth is, in reality, it is as I said "the real world sucks".

This post is written from East Nashville, where I now reside. 

Obviously, I haven't divulged my information in a while. I have been too busy to be honest. I work

8-5 in a job that is emotionally and physically draining. This job has showed me so many aspects of why

I love what I do. I am a case manager. I am the pee on of mental health. This is okay because it is teaching me humble appreciation for my clients. It is amazing to know that in one day I can help someone succeed in a small goal such as filling out an application for a job. 

Needless to say, holding down a big girl job is rewarding and a learning experience. The purpose of writing this is to say that there will be photos and fun about East Nashville to come. I'm tired of being a grandma and I'm getting out of the house. 

Shauna.
