Day 96
Adulting not as much fun as my teenage self thought it would be. Adulting is difficult on a good day when everything is working out like it should. It seems impossible when it isn’t going at all like you thought. I get up, show up and step up. Y’all, I’m tired. Deep in my core […]

Day 92
Relocating. Moving. Packing. Taping. Boxing up things. Let me say this loud so those in the back can hear. I NEVER want to do this again. I don’t care how amazing a new location will be. I don’t care how fantastic the opportunity will be. The next time I am forced to relocate. It will […]

Day 76
Saint Patrick was no saint. There really aren’t saints. People are inherently bad. We are as a species self centered. Most of what motivates humans is the need to survive. It takes ruling over your natural self with your spiritual self to be a saintly human. It’s not easy to be a nice human. Do […]

Day 75
Today 34 years ago I became a mother. It is a scary, thrilling, beautiful thing to be. You are always a parent once you become one. It isn’t something you ever finish doing or being. Some humans walk away. Better to stay gone if you can’t commit to forever. Tiny humans deserve your best self […]

Day 74
Have you heard it said that it is darkest right before dawn? I suppose that’s true. What I do know is right when you think your situation can’t get any worse, it will. The catch is to stay with what you know is true and let things happen as it will. Do the right thing […]
