Excuse My Absence

Clearly an awful combo of school and work have been consuming my every waking second and I haven't been able to get a single word in edge wise on here. My apologies. 

I just wanted to take a quick second to recognize and thank my family, best friends and boyfriend for always being there when I need them the most. My family, without a doubt, is hands down amazing. You will never see a close knit group of crazies like us. Family over everything. I cannot express my gratitude for them and their encouraging words through all the obstacles I've had throughout my short lived life. You all will never know how much you truly mean to me. Now, for my tight little circle of friends, you all are my rock. One call and you all are there, whenever, wherever. The saying "I rather have a few true friends rather than a bunch of fake ones" definitely applies. I have been blessed to have all of you. Now, last but not least, of course, Anthony. You are the one I go to for absolutely everything. You always know the right thing to say and always know how to make me feel better when I hit a little bump in the road. I can truly say that since our relationship has started you have constantly brought out the best in me and have definitely made me a better person in every single way possible. We've been through so much together and I wouldn't trade anything for the world. You are my all. My best friend, soulmate, confidant, you name it, you're it. So glad that I have you to spend the rest of my life with. 

Thank you, all of you, for being there and being good genuine people. You all mean so much. More than you'll ever know. 

Hope everyone has a smooth sailing week!
