Welcome! I’m Christine, lover of good conversations, wine, my hubby, making people laugh, good food, and most of all Jesus. January 1, 2012 was the day when I knew I wanted to simplify my life in some way. I wanted a challenge and I wanted it to be a good chunk of time. That’s when  New Years Resolution was born. For a year I committed to shopping for clothes strictly at thrift stores. Little did I know that this would be more than just some blog about what outfits I got at a second hand shop.

This was about my passions.

It was real.

It was raw.

It was about figuring myself out.

During that year I learned that there is something that happens when I blog. A part of me is explained that words out loud cannot express.

{And for a verbal processor, that’s sayin’ something}

So, here I am, with a passion for knowing people in depth, hilarious moments, learning life, staying young at heart, and all the while entering into it with a more simple, sound mind, heart, and soul. I hope you enjoy what you read as you enter into the successful and not so successful adventures of our simple city life.
