Legos

Ok this is a life update As you guys know my 2020 was life changing as many of you probably experienced too. I got separated from my husband then the world shut down and in Utah we had a pretty big earthquake all around the same time. The next few months were very hard; very lonely and stressful. I was one of the lucky ones who was still able to work. I only lost 8 hours a paycheck. Also my schedule was 7 days on and 7 days off so I was able to focus on work for a whole week and then sit at home and cry for a whole week. In May things kind of started to open up a little and change and I was able to have a girls weekend. This changed everything! I even went on a few date with a few guys I knew before I divorced my husband. They were duds but at least I was able to step out and experience something new. After that I went pretty social; I went camping a few times, I went to lunch with a lot of different friends, I went to St. George by myself, I went to Oregon, I went to New Hampshire and Massachusetts. All this time I was trying to get my house set up and my lego selling business set up. It was not easy. And I didn't actually get divorced until November! Then the middle of September I took a temporary shift and position at work. I was working 4 10s but every week... It's hard when you're not used to it... And that is when the fun ended. Obviously it meant summer was over and I love summer, and I started working graves, and I was just getting tired. Bad combination... So I started shutting down again. It got so bad that I took a week off in December. I didn't plan much but I did go to St. George for a few days and I went on a bunch of dates. None of these dates really went anywhere but I am still glad I did it. Once again it's a step... Around this time the renovation on my house was also finished so I started to look for renters. I found them pretty quick and easy so that is fantastic. Now for 2021! Although my renters said they couldn't move in until February they got their first payment pretty quickly and I told them as soon as they could pay they could start moving in. So they moved in last weekend! So I officially started making money on my house. Not a lot of money but it's a starter house... And very quickly I made some sales on Bricklink. Check my website https://store.bricklink.com/mproffit88#/shop They have all been very small but at this point I just need sales and reviews. It will get better. Baby steps right? So far I think I am in great shape for this year. Even if I think I'm done dating for a minute. I am currently taking more time off so I can recover from this shift. I don't know what to do. I also really want to work and make a lot of money but I'm so tired and kind of depressed again... Ha this was supposed to be about how excited I was about selling legos...

The Hating Game

Lucy Hale is enough to sell this movie to me. But it was really good anyway. A little predictable but that's not surprising for a rom com. The fun thing about this movie is that it really has a real rivalry. And takes place in publishing. Is publishing that big of a deal? There seem to be a lot of movies and TV shows around publishing. But it's about this small, cute, sweet book publisher who merges with a bigger, stiffer, more capitalist book publisher. And then the teams war against each other. So a lot of it is about the work rivalry but it is also about Lucy and Austin Stowell and how they interact together. It's cute. I would totally watch it if I were you.

You

TV show Psychological thriller if there ever was one! Penn Badgley plays the perfect insane character! He's got this look that just scares the crap out of me! The main girl is amazing too but she's nothing compared to Penn. Shay Mitchell is also one of my favorite people from her Pretty Little Liars days. She also plays her character well and I love her. The story has enough real life to make it believable but also enough crazy to well make it crazy. This isn't going to be a long post because only season 1 is on Netflix so there is only 10 episodes but I think they're still going because IMDB has 2 seasons and they left it open. So I will wait patiently for the next installment because I like Penn anyway but this is a new level for him.

Baby is real

I think I felt the baby move. It was very trippy. But very cool as well. We also found out recently that it's a girl. I'm having a baby girl. Now that I'm showing and feeling it and can shop for it, it all seems more real. This isn't going to be a long post because there isn't a lot to say. I'm really not doing much but growing a human is enough for me I guess. So we've started shopping. We have a crib, a bassinet and some artwork for the nursery. Also we just have a bunch of cute clothes. Not anything real big although she's going to be born in winter. The next step is a carseat stroller combo. Any suggestions? Basically I want just a bunch of black or grey onsies for her easy clothes and then sweats and leggings to wear over them.
