Do you remember my post about Meetup.com? The group where I got to meet new friends and go out and do fun things. I'm still a part of that. It's been a little over 2 years since I joined the 20s and 30s group and it's helped me make so many friends. Some of them I only get to know for a short time as our city is a fairly transient place with the university being a big part of that. People are students and graduate or they work there and eventually move on. I even help run a women's group that branched off from the main group. Sometimes girls just want to have fun. Hahaha...
I also am a part of Makerspace Urbana and it's really cool. I can learn new skills, get to know some interesting people, or teach people things that I know. I've actually taught several workshops on jewelry and crafts.
Last year there were a couple of significant events. My favorite cousin got married and I was in the wedding party. Plus I got to visit my second home (California). Here are some of my favorite photos.
The other event was that I met a wonderful man named Skyler. I swear he is the man I've been looking for my entire life and we finally found each other.
Just a little update from little ole' me.
Love Always,
Melissa
