In writing my post the other day, I came to the realization that none of my friends in RI knew me Pre-Avery. They didn’t get to know the crazy, silly, funny, weird, sometimes wild, non-mom. I thought I’d take a moment to show you…..
Before Avery…
I went to college. Like, a whole lot of college. I collected degrees because I didn’t (and still don’t) have a clue what I wanted to be when I grew up. One of these schools was the best experience of my life, one was the worst.
And I worked. I worked a lot. I worked at a Bed & Breakfast. I worked retail (A tiny tiny toy store, Target, Christmas Tree Shop (for a day), more Target, for an advertising agency as a designer, as a marketing manager for a horrible company, Sports Authority, Babies R Us, Sports Authority again, as a Massage Therapist at a chiropractors office, and then at a terrible day spa, Sports Authority again, Expressions corporate.
And I was on the board of the local chapter of a non profit.
Oh, and I also worked at a flower shop.
I made this face in a whole lot of pictures.
and this face.
And my hair was pink (and then purple, and then blue and then pink again)
I played football.
and I ran, and bought tons of sneakers, and climbed trees, and played golf (“real” and miniature)
and I went hiking a lot.
And sometimes I enjoyed a drink when I went out.
And I had a mansion, and lost all my Millions at Saratoga.
OK, so that last part wasn’t true, but everything else is.
There you go….a little insight in to Sarah Before Avery.

I knew Sarah before college, no less before Dave and Avery! Love the stroll down memory lane. Later on I have to ask you a question about something you wrote.
Yes you did! You knew “High School Sarah” haha
