Timeline

I've been mentally mapping out a timeline of this past year.

May 2014

Just a week after Rick's funeral, I traveled to the Philadelphia Zoo with my friend Jenn to be a guest speaker at the official NEDA (National Eating Disorder Association) Walk. I'm not exactly sure how I had the stamina and mental clarity to do such a thing at that particular time, but somehow it happened. I had made the commitment and it was important to me to follow through.

June 2014

I traveled to Connecticut to help my best friend Libes shop for a wedding dress.

An impromptu day at Mauch Chunk Lake Campground.

My good friend Alicia traveled from Michigan to see me.

Back to CT for Libes's engagement party.

Girls winery weekend outside of Philadelphia in honor of my good friend Beth's upcoming wedding.

What's next? :-)
