Falling into place

I thought about something yesterday while I was working out. I thought about how my oldest would be starting Kindergarten in a day, and how quickly that time came. I thought about a blog post I wrote back in the fall of 2016, all about reminiscing on the fall season and all that it brings. …

Opinions of others.

How much value do you put into the opinions of others? It's ok, I won't tell, how much? I would love to be the person that says "none." That can confidently say my happiness would never rely on the approval of others. However, that would be a lie. I have gotten better in terms of …

Running on my mind

Running and me go way back. The first time I remember running and actually enjoying it was in fifth grade when I made the 4x100 relay event for the local elementary school. I had the time of my life being selected as one of the “fast kids." The next school year my parents got us …

I’m feeling 2022

If you read that title as 20-22 to the tune of 22 by Taylor Swift, congrats, you win. You don't actually win something, sorry, I just love a good Taylor Swift pun. Almost as much as I love setting resolutions in the new year. Do I always stick to these resolutions, not always. There's just …

this is me trying.

I am so mad at myself. Well maybe not mad, just disappointed. I’ve written 7 blog posts in the last two years. This may not seem like anything to you, or maybe you don’t care. To me, this is upsetting. Especially when the last post I wrote was from a year ago where I wrote …

Begin again

I wish I knew a perfect way to start this, but sadly that isn't the case today. I really miss having a creative outlet, something I never knew I needed until four years ago. I never saw myself as a "creative" person growing up. Growing up, sports were more of my thing. I was awful …

Sunshine and anxiety

  I haven't talked about my anxiety much on my blog. I wrote about it in my book I published this last December but I haven't written about it publicly on my blog. I have anxiety, something I always kind of figured I had but didn't want to ever try and get help for. It …

29 Going On 30

Woah...she's finally here. My thirties. HOLD THE FREAKIN PHONE How did I turn 30?! Yesterday I was 22 and had just graduated college?! When did I turn 30?! I'm only kidding, I've been working on processing the fact that I'm turning 30 since I turned 29. I knew this year had to be the best …

I came in like a wrecking ball.

I am very type A. I know I've mentioned it over and over again but that's because it's true. Have you ever seen that episode of friends where everyone gives Monica a hard time about leaving a pair of shoes out? She lays in bed at night and can't sleep because she wants nothing more …

My word.

Hey blog, long time no see! It’s been quite some time since I wrote a blog post and updated anyone on anything. I was a little busy chasing my dreams, dreams that I accomplished. I wrote my book! The one thing I set out for myself to do in 2019. It was extremely time consuming …
