It has been 2 years, 4 months, and 29 days since I last wrote something for this blog. A lot has happened during that time, and a lot will continue to happen moving forward. First things first, Covid-19 has forever changed our world and our reality. I truly hope everyone is happy, healthy, and safe. Whether you are living strictly isolated, or are beginning to … Continue reading A New Life

Grab a mason jar and jot down ideas on ways you can date yourself. On ways you can be more intentional with your friends, your family, your coworkers! Give yourself time to grow more as an individual. It will be worth it. I live in the Seattle region and so these are my ideas.

I gave … Continue reading The Art of Deception

No, she didn’t pass away, but our arrangement came … Continue reading My Life As a Stay at Home Mom
I won’t lie, this has become my daily mantra. If I don’t tell myself this, it’s incredibly hard to get out of bed and actually feel like a human being with a purpose.
