“I know what it’s like to lose, do you? Have you ever loved someone, then lost that one? You can’t even call their phone. You can’t even ask how their day was. Nothing in life is guaranteed, you’ll see. I’m not being difficult, I just see things differently”-Jhene Aiko, 10k Hours Hey everybody! I know …
Goodness Gracious…ly Grateful
Hey everybody! I hope you’re all staying safe and are doing well! I’ve been managing to stay healthy, but sane is a totally different story! I, like so many others, am still trying to adjust to this new normal! Honestly, I initially felt like I should be used to it by now, as long as …
Out With the Old…Well, Not So Fast
Hey everybody! Is anybody else sick of hearing about this virus? Anybody else sick of this new “normal”? I am, too! But it is what it is. I feel like this virus is the equivalent of a bad accident: You don’t want to stop and stare and really hope everyone is okay, but you just …
What is Love?
Hey everybody! It is absolutely crazy that I am writing this right now. I say that because it is currently 1:04am my time. I am officially a self-diagnosed insomniac because a full night’s sleep rarely finds me, and it is almost pointless for me to look for it anymore. One thing about me though; if …
A To-do Guide for a Pandemic: Don’t.
Hey everybody! Twice in one month…I must be on to something! I’m kidding. In all actuality, I have found myself with a lot more time on my hands, or at least the mind to use my time more wisely. Like tons of people, I end up bouncing from social media app to app. It’s absolutely …
A Little Kindness Doesn’t Cost
Hey everybody! I hope everyone is staying safe and if you’re from my region (or any other hot region), cool! More importantly, I hope everyone is protecting their mental wellness. Unfortunately, there is a lot of sadness, evil, and hatred in the world and if you let it, it can consume you. This July 4th …
Here We Are!
Hey everybody! I am finally back! I know it has been a long few months and I hope everybody is doing well and staying safe. These last few months have found people trying to figure it out. By “it” I mean everything…life. Some people have had a harder time than others (and my light and …
Broken Hearts Still Beat
Broken Hearts Still Beat Hey everybody! I promise I’m working on not staying away from you all so long, but LIFE! I’m on crunch time for dissertation writing, kids do and say the darndest things, I still have to work to pay bills, and trying to have a social life. Ironically enough though, the latter …
Mommy and Me
Hey everybody! I hope everybody’s February is treating them with so much love so far! It finally seems like we’ve gotten the year rolling! I was planning on posting this yesterday (Valentine’s Day), but I decided to wait. I hope that love day, regardless of how it came about, lived up to your expectations and …
Wanna Get Away?
Hey, everybody! I hope the first month of the New Year has been good to you (can you believe it’s almost over?!). If you’ve ever read anyone of my posts, you know that I try to be completely transparent. The start of this New Year found me struggling. After some reflection, I figured out why. …
