So the my celebrating life day has come and gone and this particular day was incredibly celebratory for me because it is the beginning of a new life for me. Tomorrow is my official last day at the place I worked for most of my late 20s. Next week I once again start classes and become a graduate student, and I have to change and get used to a lifestyle not filled with constant travel, packing and travel drama to a pretty normal and consistent schedule. From previous posts you know I turned my life upside down and moved to New Jersey a few months ago so I am also learning a new city, gaining new friendships and basically starting over.

So for this month’s celebrating life I decided to take it back to a time before I lived in this area. For the last 3 or 4 years every labor day my sister and I would come to New York to shop, eat at our favorite restaurants, and hang out with our friends. We always would try some place new and fun, laugh and reminsce over a great meal with our friends that lived in the NYC area. So for my celebrating life I invited my friends and we celebrated another month for me in true fashion just like we have every year before. It was the perfect finale to the summer, to this phase in my career and the perfect toast into whatever the future holds. Here’s to Celebrating Life!
