Well, today ended up another day of traveling. I decided to go with Will to Chattanooga to visit the family, but I also brought my homework…nursing student life…
It was another beautiful day, but let me get back to studying.

Today we drove to Alabama for a family friend of Will’s wedding. It turned out to be a beautiful day!
The wedding was gorgeous, but this photo was the icing on the cake for me. I love this shot. :)

This morning I woke up in such pain that I immediately called the doctor and went in as soon as possible.
An hour or so later, Will and I are at Kroger picking up 3, yes three, prescriptions.
Because I’m in nursing school I’ll list a little about each drug:
Motrin 800mg – NSAID (nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory) used to block the inflammatory process = decreasing swelling, pain, or fever
– I took this as soon as I got home, and iced my back for about an hour. Really noticed some improvements.
Flexeril 10mg – muscle relaxer used to treat muscle spasms
– I have not taken yet because I had school tonight, and I’m now waiting for Will to get home since it’s a new drug for me.
Tramadol 50mg – analgesic used to relieve moderate pain = changes the way the brain responds to pain signals
– Again, have not taken yet due to school. Although, I’m not sure if I’ll take it yet. The Motrin seems to be helping a lot…so we’ll see.
I’m really hoping all this resolves in the next couple of days. I’ve got a lot to do with school, work, and now moving. I don’t have time to be hurt!

Well, the 365 Days of Inspiration only lasted 2 days. Ha. Oh, well.
I decided to stop doing it because it wasn’t fun for me. Finding things that inspired was fun but having to write about it seemed more like work to me. I wanted to let people know about my inspirations, but I didn’t like writing it.
I’ve never been keen on writing in the first place, and having to narrate someone else’s journey wasn’t for me.
I loved narrating my journey. I really enjoyed the 365 Day project this past year. Some days were tough, but the end result is amazing. I can’t wait to see what this year brings!
So begins Year 2 of 365 Days!

Watercolor skies

I know, I know. I didn’t even manage to take one day off!
All day long things kept jumping out at me yelling “take my picture” “look at me” “don’t forget”.
The one thing that I loved most about today was the sky. I always love when there are clouds mixed in the sky. Today was no exception.
All day long I noticed the clouds, and on my way home they were especially beautiful. My phone would do it no justice, so I didn’t try. Every few minutes, or every few turns, the colors were changing and creating a beautiful watercolor in the sky.
Sunsets. That’s what I miss most about Florida. No matter what mood I was in, a trip down to the beach to watch the sunset would make my day. Especially when the clouds were in the sky creating magical creatures and feelings of being trapped inside them.

So. This is Charlie.
It’s been 1 full year today. 365 days of photos. 365 days…wow. I actually did it.
It’s been a long year full of many memories and many changes. I am so grateful to of had a place to voice myself.
To those of you who have been with me from the start, thank you.
To those of you who have joined me along the way, thank you as well.
I’ll end the year with this:
6 things I’ve learned over the past 365 days
1) Everyday, is a lot.
2) I love documenting my life.
This is something I’ve known for awhile, but rarely take the time to actually do.
3) Create for yourself – not others.
I’m not doing these projects for other people. Some days I just don’t have the energy to get a “good” picture…and that’s ok.
4) I do like positive feedback, but I don’t need it.
5) Listen to your gut, and be adventurous. Don’t be too scared to go for it, you might surprise yourself.
6) There is something interesting everywhere…you just have to be willing to take the time to look for it .
Thanks again, and till next time! :)
