To the west side! This will be the final entry for this Kansas City chapter. What a whirlwind it has been. I have to say, it will be impossible to find better room mates out west than my sister and brother in law. We vibe in all the right places.

I was reminded by my sister (pie crust) of a phone call I made to her last November asking if I could crash at her place till January. Welp sis… I am leaving during a month starting with J but it is a bit further down the path than the initially planned first of the year. Thanks for putting up with me. You two loons have taught me so much about adulting it scares me silly. Hopefully you learned a thing or two from my rambunctious ramblings in the crossfire. I can honestly say I never imagined that I would miss having chickens, or that I would even enjoyed having them! Perhaps I’ll just have to get some of my own (they will be named in a theme). No offense to the to the triple P’s, Big W, and the one and only Sadie.

Being around the support and love of family is something that is essential to any life. I will forever be thankful for the unending support my parents and sibling(s) have given me while I have been living here. It is hard to move away from such a support system. It is so warm, joyous, and comforting. But you all know me… When things are getting too comfortable, I feel this strange urge and desire to get uncomfortable again. Being uncomfortable is something I need to grow. And growing is exactly what I need to be doing right now. When I am ready for a different type of uncomfortable, maybe I can settle down. But for now I must remain restless, forever walking down my own path. Even if it is difficult, unknown, and uncomfortable.

I hold nothing but anticipation and positive thoughts for what will happen tomorrow. Sure, I like to feel that way about every new morning’s sun, but when you are embarking on a new voyage such as this, excitement is hard to contain. Utah round.. 3? 4? I don’t know how many times I’ve been out and back, but I won’t stop until I have learned what I need to from it. I love that state and can’t wait to be back in its natural beauty.
