FabFitFun: Fall 2019

Hello there! For this week's Blogtober post, I have something a little different for you than my typical content. It's fall related per se but not in the pumpkin spice and apple picking sense that comes to mind. I recently received my first FabFitFun box and I can say that I am officially obsessed. If…

Oh, What A Week…

For me, it's really ironic that this week is Mental Health Awareness Week. This week has been among the most difficult ones I've ever endured regarding my mental health. I know I tend to be overdramatic with just about everything, but the emotional pain I experienced this past week was so debilitating that I, honestly,…

20 Songs For Fall

Hello there! So, before I share with you some of my favorite songs for fall, I thought I'd mention that this is the first of my Blogtober posts. Now, I'm not doing a typical Blogtober, where you post every day for the entire month but rather a weekly, fall-related post either in addition to or…

Finally Listening to Myself

I'm a very stubborn person. I always have been and I probably always will be. In fact, I'm so stubborn that just being able to admit that has taken years. In all seriousness, though, I think that there's something different to be said about stubbornness when it comes to our well-being. We all think we…

Things Can Be Difficult

So, remember back in July when I committed to posting every week? Yeah, me too. Yet, another five weeks have come and gone without a post. It's not that I haven't at least tried to write; there's a post sitting in my drafts that's about 80% finished. But, let's face it, we all know that…

Where Have I Been?

First off, I'd like to address the elephant in the room--yes, it's been a very long time since I last posted. Don't get me wrong, this blog hiatus, if you will, was not entirely intentional. I love sharing my thoughts and views and interacting with all of you. I've said before that blogging is a…

Valentine’s Day: A Love/Hate Relationship

Well, here we go again. Another Valentine's Day is here and, once again, I have no valentine. Ugh, this sucks...what am I going to do? I guess I have no choice but to stuff my face with an entire heart-shaped box of chocolates while listening to All By Myself by Eric Carmen on repeat. That'll…

Ten Years Ago…

Hi there! This week's post is inspired by the "Ten Year Photo Challenge" that is all over Instagram these days. If you don't know what I'm talking about it's when you post a side by side of yourself from ten years ago and today to see if you've "aged well", from an outward perspective. With…

New Years Resolutions?

I don't believe in New Years resolutions. Phew...man, it felt good to get that off my chest! I don't know...There is something about them, or rather that term, that just irks me. For instance, why do they have to be at the beginning of the year? And why are they called "resolutions"? This week, I'm…

‘Twas the Season

Hello there and Happy New Year! Yes, I know that it's been about two months since I last posted. December was BEYOND busy for me with work (and occasional holiday festivities) so, unfortunately, my blog was pushed to the back burner. I'm kinda bummed I didn't get to do any holiday related posts or anything,…
