[forgive the title reference–I couldn’t help myself; you can take the girl out of BK, but you can’t take BK out of the girl]
For some of you, this will be a re-introduction.
For most of you, this will be a new introduction (redundant, much? shrug) . So here goes…
Hi, I’m Jackie. I am a Sagittarius. My favorite color is pink and I enjoy taking long walks on the beach.
I kid.
My name is indeed Jackie, but this isn’t a dating ad circa 1973. After quite the hiatus (six years to be exact), this is me jumping back into the blogging game.
Why now, might you ask?
Why not?
Since my last post in 2013, a ton has changed in my life. I:
- had a baby
- relocated
- got promoted and relocated again
- got promoted, relocated again, purchased a house AND had another baby…all at the same time (man, wait for the story on THAT one)
- got a new role, relocated again, sold a house, and purchased a house (roughly about a year after buying the first house)
Geez, I’m exhausted just typing all of the above.
Additionally, I’ve :
- raised some babies
- did some travel
- served on some boards
- met some interesting people
- made some new friends
- opened some cool things (a restaurant or two would be considered cool, maybe?)
- experienced some cool…”stuff”
- experienced some…not-so-cool…”stuff”
And…I want to talk about it. Because…well…I’m a talker and that’s what I do (much to Husband’s chagrin. LOL.).
So I’m here, good people. And I invite you to join me. This will be light, heavy, serious, funny, reflective, and self-deprecating. Most importantly, it will be unabashedly and unapologetically real. Let’s get it.
