IM BACK

I fell off the face of the bloggersphere for a little while, but life certainly has not slowed down. Here are the 30 second spark notes of what has been going on lately:

- Spent the spring semester dying a slow death of medical-surgical nursing. 

- Found a new adventure for this August and put the wedding date on hold. 

- I actually have started conditioning and training myself to be a runner. (Instead of just telling myself I want to like running, but not getting up off the couch.) I'm actually doing it!!

- Finished my med-surg rotation for nursing school in May. 

- Worked my bum off for summer courses the first half of this summer. 

- Adventured in New Hampshire, Cape Cod, Martha's Vineyard, and Nantucket.

- Played in the mountains a whole bunch. 

- Calib got hired for his dream job!

- I started a new nannying job in addition to the hospital.

- I only have 2 more semesters until I become an RN!

Every day is an exciting adventure. I couldn't feel luckier with this life of mine. 

(Cheesy lines over... Here are some pictures of my dog who is still painfully adorable and perfect.)

ABOUT ME

HELLO,

My name is Scotlyn. Welcome to this strange start of a collaboration of my thoughts. After following a few amazing young women as they journeyed through the blogosphere, I finally decided "I could do that." And here we are.

For now, I'm making this blog for me, but if you're reading this, I'd love for you to come along for the ride.

I really enjoy feeling like I know the person behind the words when I read, so here's a little of me for you.


1. My name is Scotlyn. Sounds like Scott-lyn. It has nothing to do with the country Scotland. Thanks, mom and dad.

2. I am a 21 years old, but truly an old soul. This has a lot to do with the way I think and act... Or that I can't stay up past 10pm most nights.

3. I am in nursing school. I have a passion for psychology and am going to be a psychiatric nurse (some day.)

4. I met my boyfriend, C, when I was 15 years old. We started dating in 2010 when I was just about to turn 16 and he was 17. Over five years later, and we are planning the rest of our lives together.

5. C and I are fur-parents to Jefferson, our 1 year old Australian Shepard. If you met him, you'd know why he is nicknamed 'Mayor Jefferson.' He is so personable and always looks like he is on his way to greet the townspeople and make an important speech.

6. I have two older sisters and grew up in a tiny town close to Cape Cod, Ma.

7. My favorite place in the world is Jefferson, NH. Another teeny, tiny town nestled in the White Mountains. C's parents have a house up there and there is no happier place in the world.

I love talking to people. Don't be shy.

xo,
Scotlyn
