Check me out

So, I decided to google my blog today because apparently someone clicked on the site after searching, "Mommy blog in Pennsylvania."  I didn't find any connection between my blog and mommy blogs, considering I don't have a child, well, I have a dog that I talk to like a child, but that's totally normal. 

I did find a lot of Fish out of Water blogs however.  Like, a ton.  And, it made me feel unoriginal and kinda part of the crowd. 

Hence, the new name of the blog.  Same old url, because I'm not going to make anyone type in everydayhappenings.blogspot.com.  That's insane.  Too long.  Or, maybe I will if it's still available.  I'm not sure. 

K came up with the name Fish out of water, so it is bittersweet to say good-bye.  He is no where near unoriginal or part of the crowd.  It was a good name.  But, I feel like life is changing right now and so, your blog should too. 

I don't feel so out of place anymore.  I feel like I'm rounding a corner and about to embark on life.  Being from Seattle is what makes me special out here and I'm able to include that in my daily life. 



When I was in elementary school, I loved writing.  I'd create chapter books (which, when you're 10, means like 5 pages a chapter, in that really big font, with pictures). I'd come up with all of these elaborate stories and characters.  When I was 10, I thought it would be really awesome to have a story called, Everyday Happenings, even though I didn't know what it would be about.  I just thought that was a quirky name that could mean so much, and for some reason, that name stuck in my brain.  I probably couldn't tell you the name of my teacher from that year, but I remembered that book.

So, here I am, writing.  Not sure what it will be about, and yes, that title could mean so much.  And, yes, that is all so very cliche and cheesy. 

New name, new header, new year.  The holiday is three weeks away, but we're ready to start now. 

I have lots of nursing things to study this weekend, so I must go to bed.  But, there are important things that I must write about too, so stay tuned for that.
