    2021-02-05 Where’s Monday When You Need It?

    After having slept for only 4 hours the previous night, I could not stay awake past 9pm last night. My sleep was unfortunately once again riddled with tossing and turning and congestion. At 4:30 this AM I gave up and got up (again). Sound familiar? Despite that nonsense, I was in good spirits and looking…

    2021-01-22 Good News in My Inbox is Bad News for the Litter Box

    It was a short night for me but the sleep I had was good. Yesterday ended ok and I felt ok about what I was able to accomplish. No surprise though that some unfinished business is stacking up. I’m really going to have to bust my booty today to get it all done.  Not that…

    2021-01-18 Happy Blog-A-Versary!! 💃💃🎉

    2017-01-15 –> Now. Four years (+ a few days).. Yo!.. That’s a good freaking run!!  (Spoiler Alert, this recap could get long. If stats are your thing and you want to skip the drunk trainwreck intro, scroll to the end, but don’t forget to click “like” before you leave. 😉) In January 2017 I decided…

    2021-01-15 The Friday that Thinks It’s a Saturday

    Yesterday was a Thursday that felt like a Friday and apparently the Universe agrees with me because we got blasted with a blizzard overnight and today everything is closed.  The solid run I was on with decent sleep got wrecked too. And with it my good mood. I’ve been feeling great all week and woke…

    2021-01-12 On Being Smaug 🐉

    I opened a book I got for Christmas; I was bound and determined to break out of the habit I’ve gotten myself into where I only read to learn things and can’t seem to read for fun or enjoyment. I remember those days. I remember reading the Hobbit in the bathtub when I was a…

    2021-01-06 Abbreviated Celebrations and Delayed Considerations

    Monday night I finally ceremoniously graduated from the MFA program I’ve been engaged in for the past 3 years. It was a great experience. I watched, cried, and then popped briefly into the “library pub” zoom after to see who else might be on celebrating. As it turns out, very few people were and I…

    2021-01-04 MFA Graduation Day 💃💃🎉

    It’s about time. It’s about endings and beginnings, direction, voice, responsibility, and resolution. Or at least it wants to be. Aspiration, experience, and discovering what life is trying to teach you. I mean me. When i say “you” I mean “me”. When I say “we” I also mean “me”. We’re all self centered. Humans. All…

    2021-01-03 Final MFA Res Day ??!… 🤦🏼‍♀️

    It’s official… I’ve lost track of what “MFA” day it is, what day or the week, and also what year. But I’m not ready for the new year yet and that’s ok.  What? Did I just say that I was not ready for 2020 to end. Well, not exactly. I’m ready for 2020 to take…
