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…

  • 2018-04-12 Being Human

    It doesn’t matter who you are or how healthy you are… everyone gets sick. I don’t know where I might have picked up a cold (especially this time of year), but did and yesterday I was down for a count. I determined pretty quickly that my body needed to rest and recover and I was…

  • 2018-04-11 What Timing

    This morning I woke up after a very poor night sleep feeling unrested. I detected some congestion and drainage over night and now my throat is sore and I kinda feel like I’m in a bit of a brain fog. I’m also feeling crampy and, yeah, it is that time again. I have zero desire…

  • 2018-04-10 Getting Older

    Apparently one of the side effects of getting old is forgetting ones actual age. I was having a conversation the other day and JS asked how old my siblings were. I know the difference in our ages, so I always calculate this by taking my age and adding/subtracting appropriately (I’m a middle child of 4).…

  • 2018-04-09 Sunday Sneaking into My Monday

    I missed my Sunday Status yesterday. I skipped over that in favor of my little rant about my ex. Sometimes you just gotta get that out, you know, to get over it. The other very therapeutic thing I did was compose an email (not ashamed to admit that’s something that also makes me feel better).…

  • 2018-04-08 This is My Blog and I’ll Rant if I Want To

    I’m not gonna sugar coat this. My ex-husband is a supreme douchebag. My gawd.. it’s good that my BS threshold is so high, otherwise I’d probably have been pushed past a breaking point way before now. The funny thing is, he gets so butt-hurt when people talk shit about his behaviors. If you do douchy…

  • 2018-04-07 Five Weeks

    Five weeks ago today, I was waking up and laying in bed and going through my normal single-girl routine… Pick up the phone.. check for text.. check email.. look for app notification badges, Facebook, Twitter, WordPress.. open Bumble and make a decision about swiping right or left on the current person whom I presumably was…

  • 2018-04-06 Having Nothing to Say is OK Too

    It’s April 6 and I woke up to snow coming down and all my daffodils sad bent over kissing the white dusted ground. This is NOT what spring is supposed to like. I also have nothing to talk about but the weather. That’s not how this is supposed to be, but just like the snow,…

  • 2018-04-05 That’s How You Know

    How do you know if something is as great as you think it is? We’ll try abstaining from it for a while, see if you miss It. Then go back to it.. do you rediscover how awesome it is? Yes? That’s how you know. I had to forego Jazzercise for over a week because of…

  • 2018-04-04 I Got Your Back

    It’s taken a couple months but I feel like I have more than a foot in the door of my team. Of course my agenda has three primary goals.. #1 To have enough work to make a living. ✅ #2 To be productive and impress those I’m working with. (Half ✅ cuz this one is…

  • 2018-04-03 A Critique of the Critical Essay

    I’ve done a lot of forced writing in the last week. By forced I mean writing that I wouldn’t normally do. Poetry comes easy.. and when it happens I always enjoy it. I rarely pick a topic and say to myself, I’m gonna write about that this time. Journaling usually comes easy. I just start…

  • 2018-04-02 Back to Reality

    Back home. Back to work. Getting the kids today and it will be back to our normal routine for the week. I did sacrifice some things last week (time) in order to enjoy my QT out of town and my homecoming so I’m hitting today feeling a little pressure to catch up. First, however, is…

  • 2018-04-01 Austin Day 4: Going Home

    Three full days and it’s time to go home. It’s seriously early and I’m already settled at my gate and ready for departure in about 30 minutes. It feels like a quick trip, which truly it is, but I’m ready to be home. This morning was atypical because of my early flight.Steph’s husbsnd got up…
