UP

The weeks have been getting away from me lately! Just when I think it's about to slow down... the pace picks up again, double time!

I seem to have a million projects going on in 2012- from my full-time gig at Auction Network to my True Blue freelance project (Tulsans, have you seen our commercials on KJRH?) to life in general. I know you all hear me on that last one. Life itself takes up so much time; who knew?!

This busy time is at times trying and stressful, but also extremely rewarding. Opportunities are opening up like never before. Finding time to break away for a swim or a girls' night is difficult- but I am fully embracing the fact that this is my life right now- and I wouldn't have it any other way. At 28 27 years old (28 next week!) I am loving the fast pace, the long days, the selfish Saturdays, and- dare I say it?- the change.

And in the midst of this crazy year, we have this:

Oh yes, folks! It's Single in the City in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

And there's yours truly in the top left corner. Smiling. Because auction is fun! Auction is what I do for a living!

Auctioning yourself for a date... for charity... is terrifying.

The event is this Friday night, for anyone with an inkling to attend. It benefits Make A Wish Foundation. Drinks, music. And a date auction! What more could you ask for?

My family will be there. My friends will be there. And afterwards, we'll drink champagne and eat cake- because next week is my birthday, after all.

Whether you're UP to your ears in joy, UP all night with a new baby, sucking UP to a new boss or yes, UP for auction- let's all agree to embrace the season of life we're in.

If there's cake and champagne in the mix? Even better.
