Well, I find myself wandering back to this blog again. Many things have kept me away for the past year and half. I got married, got pregnant, gave birth to the most beautiful baby in the world, and quit my job. I have no idea where this blog will go (can’t go anywhere but up … Continue reading »
The Bliss of Ignorance?
Along with the better half of the United States, and the world in its entirety I’m sure, I am livid. I’m pissed. I’m angry. I’m hurt. I’m sad. I’m mad. I’m crazed because of this one person’s actions. Isn’t it crazy how life does that to you? One person can ruin your day/week/moment. Most of … Continue reading »

Keeping Up With…Myself?
In a world full of iPhone Apps and constant stimulation I find it hard to sit with myself and think. Think about the day, reflect on my feelings, sit and be still. It’s tough. The world has conditioned me to always be doing something- quickly. You’re here, you’re there, you need to be everywhere in … Continue reading »
