Hey there!

This stream of consciousness is intended to be an unfiltered account of my journey to fight my way to a healthier, happier life. One day at a time, one step at a time, one organically-grown-emotionally-raw blog post at a time…

2018-09-14 Heading for Home

I don’t know how many times I have typed that. “Home Again, Home Again”. “There and Back Again”. “Homeward Bound”, but it always feels right. It always feels lighter when I get to the point that I’m typing those words. Why is that? Why is it that after a month at home, where I am…
2018-09-13 Sunrise in Cancun

Well folks, it’s been three days and I’m finally seeing the sun. Overnight the clouds cleared and it was a beautiful sunrise on the horizon. There’s definitely been more than overcast skies casting a dark shadow on this week. I’m supposed to be relaxing and enjoying quality time with my friends and yet I’m unable…
2018-09-12 The Day that Time Forgot

I thought Monday was a long day until Tuesday happened. Tuesday felt kinda like that day you finally feel like you are really on vacation and trying too hard to do all the right vacation-y things. It was a stormy day here in Cancun and so there was no beach going or frolicking in the…
2018-09-10 A New Personal Record

Late in 2016, when I was a wreck and my life was a bloody mess and I cried at the top of my stairs and I cried at the bottom of my stairs and I cried in my car on the way to just about everywhere, I wrote a lot. Sometimes, the writing was the…
2018-09-10 Firsts You Never Want to Have

I’ve traveled a lot. I’ve booked a lot of flights and always make good time getting through airports and connecting flights. Truth be told, I’m typically overly conservative and leave at least an hour layover just in case things are delayed or there is a big gap in between connecting gates. I’d rather be early…
2018-09-10 SugarCookie on the Move Again

I’m sitting here on this plane and it was dark when we boarded. I can’t say I ever really have a strategy for picking a seat, other than the fact that I like to sit next to the window and probably as close to the front of the plane as possible and not in an…
2018-09-10 Sisterhood of the Traveling Skirts

Pants are for chumps. If you could just wake up and throw on like one article of clothing and a pair of shoes you would too. That’s the beauty of dresses and not having to think too much about anything at 4AM. 4AM — when most of the world is sleeping — the airport is…
2018-09-09 Any Given Sunday

Today is just as good as any other. Things stay the same and things change. Keep an eye out for life passing you by and don’t blink too much or you’ll wake one day and recognize it’s all just slipped away. Poof.. like that. I’m trying to follow my own advice. I’ve certainly struggled with…
2018-09-08 Day-breaking

I’m so ready to go on vacation .. my brain left for Mexico like two days ago. This morning I’m having a call with my mentor and I’m the picture of unprepared. Yet here I am at the gym trying to make myself feel better by sweating my ass off. I was up at 5:50…
2018-09-07 Life is Just Rolling Dice

First things first.. I met my friend Vis for lunch yesterday and he paid so I owe him. As a person who is terrible at remembering these things, I need to keep better track. What’s a better way to do that than write it down in a place where I’m already keeping track of like…
2018-09-06 Quick Trips

In the last two days I traveled (via car) to Rochester Minnesota and back. I was given a quick tour of the Mayo campus and also of the town. It’s surprisingly a small town and the Mayo thing is at the center of it and pretty much all they have going on. I was actually…
2018-09-03 Just Another Day of Labor

Every morning I wake up with such high hopes about what I’ll be able to accomplish in a day. Monday’s are even more so because I’m not just thinking about the day but also about the week. Today is a triple whammie because it’s also the start of September. All weekend I’m thinking about the…
