I was wondering if after all these *months* you'd like to meet.
Hello.
Can you hear me?
Actually, I should ask, do you remember me?
Overlooking Helsinki
I know it's been a hot minute since I posted last. Let's just say that life got in the way.
Now, I have a million and one ideas of things that I want to post about that have been floating around this head of mine, but being that I am pressed for time, I'm gonna keep this one short and sweet.
They say in order to make something a habit, you have to gradually build it into your routine.
You can't just jump in full throttle and expect it to stick. So rather than put the pressure on myself to write the most beautiful blog post for my grand re-entrance back into the land of FIRE blogs, I decided to just take a second to jot down some thoughts and slowly build back writing into my routine.
Because let's be real, I pretty much fell off the face of the blogosphere rather abruptly and without really intending to do so.
And I'm sure you all are wondering what's going on with me so without further ado...
Where in the world am I?
Tallinn, Estonia
What am I doing?
(Besides writing this blog post and drinking sleepytime tea) I just got back from having dinner and experiencing the dumplings of the universe. I tried dumplings from Turkey, Georgia, Azerbaijan, and Russian and in case you were wondering, they were all fantastic.
Exhibit A: dumplings
How am I?
Currently, I'm exhausted from an amazing day (more on that to come). Happy, because Tallinn is incredible and absolutely magical. Reflective, since I am finally having time to clear my head and actually think about life. Emotional, because time and space allow for deep emotions to surface that need to be faced. I have so much to talk about here... To be continued.
Questions from TwitterLand
ICYMI, I tweeted the other day asking if any of you had questions for me and my non-existence:
Stop(ped) Ironing Shirts asked:
How to travel Europe for 2+ months and not kill her spouse
— Stop(ped) Ironing Shirts (@StIroningShirts) November 12, 2019
Well, as far as you all know, I might have. What's to say that I am not just pretending to be him online.
And Mr. DTF...er... I mean CTF asked:
When are we going to see the WOWs again! Answer that!
— Countdown to FI (@countdowntoFI) November 12, 2019
Well, we're going going back back to Cali Cali come the New Year, at least for a little bit, so maybe we'll see them sometime around then.
There you have it.
A short, reintroduction to Mrs.Wow getting back into blogging life.
Hit me up if you got questions and I'll answer them on a future post.
And I leave you with a picture of beer and a waffle, cause that's how I do.
Pohjala: One of our new favorite spots in Tallinn
Happy waffle, need I say more?
