I'm sitting outside as I type this, closing my eyes as I feel the mild temperature'd wind against my face, hearing the whisk of cars pass by while a basketball bounces in a neighbor's backyard. The light blue sky is without a cloud, but I can see the faint remnants of a chemical trail (ugh)...…
There's no need for an introduction this time - you're falling right into my interview!
I sit across from my sister - she’s wearing her short, flowy black dress, which nearly matches her long dark hair, and goes nicely with her black boots. Matthew always tends to make a comment about who she looks like…
In high school, I was voted most likely to… actually, I can’t recall what it was, because someone still has my senior year book. Remember when you’d pass it around to people, and they’d take it home because there wasn’t enough time in fifth period to write everything out? Well, someone still has it... maybe…
Here we are, at post number ten. I feel drawn to make it great - make it mean something, not that I wanted the other blog posts to be garbage, but I suppose this blank slate looks especially appealing right now, thus, I’m inspired to give it my all… my English teachers would be so…
I sit here and stare at the screen, convinced I don't have the right words to describe my mom. Amazing? No, too generic... Supportive doesn't quite give her justice... my mom has always been my best friend; she's the type of person you can go to with anything - just to bullshit, to talk about…
POST NUMBER EIGHT – FEELING GREAT. I’ve been in the rhyming mood lately… I’m sure it’ll simmer soon enough.
To begin, I want to say that I not only started writing a different story, about my personal mental health journey, but I finished it. Something about it didn’t feel 100% right for the topic though,…
As promised, I'll keep announcing the post we're on until we pass the tenth... and even after that, there's no guarantees. So, welcome in, post number seven; I embrace you with loving arms, in my pumpkin-scented living room. You may know by now, questions about each topic are posted through social media (Instagram - I'll…
Hello there -
Welcome to blog post number six. At what point do I stop announcing the number and just jump right in? You know those parents that keep telling you how old their child is, in months?… “yeah, Billy’s 29 months now - he’s such a handful!”
He’s two and a half, Karen, he’s…
Hello there and happy (I hope) Sunday. I just turned my TV off as I'm about football'd out for the day - I'm losing in fantasy, I missed my picks in another pool, and the Packers lost on Thursday. This is my fifth blog post, so the fact that I haven't yet mentioned the Packers…
Meditation is such a buzz word - it’s like kombucha - it’s become so hip to say you practice… and honestly, it is cool, but it seems like these days everyone is an expert, telling you how much it’s changed their life. It can be intimidating, but the topic is (seemingly) unavoidable.
You know when…
On to blog post number three, which I’m beyond excited about. I think I said I was super excited to write the last one, which was true, but I don’t want to get repetitive already, so let me thesaurus ‘excited’ real quick… ok, the first word that came up was ‘agitated’ and that’s obviously not…
Alright, alright, alright - blog post number two, let’s do this.
If you follow my Instagram page, you already know I’m very excited to delve into the question posed earlier in the week, which was “have you consciously eliminated anything from your diet?” An overwhelming 78% replied ‘yes’, and unlike many of the other questions,…
