Over the past year, I’ve started to realize just how alone I am. I don’t have that village. I don’t have those girls’ nights out as most women have. In fact, I barely have anyone outside of my husband, kids, and my parents to really talk to. It has led me to be awkward and kind of scared to go off and do some things on my own. But what are some ways to be okay with being alone?

Amusement Parks in Georgia aren’t the first thing you think about when it comes to Georgia. Honestly, when I think about amusement parks, Georgia isn’t the first state that I have ever remotely thought of. Typically, it’s either Florida or California, mostly because of Disney.

I’m sure I’m not the only one who feels this way.

To me, springtime is the time of new beginnings. It’s the time of growth and it’s probably one of my favorite times. I think that’s mostly because I’m not a fan of wintertime. I hate the cold weather so it’s refreshing to have the warmer weather coming in. Also, I don’t know what it is about springtime, but it always feels like a new beginning to me. It feels like a fresh start. With that being said I love having a spring bucket list just so I’m able to make the most of the season.
