Moving to Spokane has been such a beautiful change, and I love it here. Starting over somewhere new is exciting, but it's also exhausting in ways I didn't expect.
After working so hard to build what we had in Alaska, I've found myself struggling to find that same motivation to start all over again.
And as strange as it sounds, I think I'm mourning a little. Not necessarily the place itself (because I definitely don't miss those long, dark winters 😬), but the familiarity, the lifestyle, the people, and the community that made it home.
To those here in Spokane, I really am trying to find my footing, build connections, and become involved in this community. I know those things take time, and I'm learning to give myself a little grace along the way. In the meantime, ive been spending much needed time with my son, and focusing on finishing school.
