Lately, it’s been abundantly clear that depression has once again gripped its claws into me with no real signs of letting go anytime soon. Despite me literally just…being depressed…there have been some other signs that my body is screaming at me about that something isn’t quite right. Exhaustion. Let me be clear. If there is …
I had an entire post that I wrote this morning, ready to publish. But, then, as it always does, life happened. Lately, it feels like things are constantly going wrong. I’m managing one crisis after the next, and I just don’t have the wherewithal to deal with it anymore. I’m tapped out in absolutely every …
Something absolutely crazy happened last night…. IT RAINED. It literally has not rained here in…months. So it was an extremely welcomed change. Especially because it brought with it about 10°f cool weather, so we’ll finally be out of the 100s (for a few days anyway). It was not a bad ending to an already long …

I’m putting it out there. Today is going to be a good day. It’s Saturday, my husband is home, he’s helping out with the kids, I actually got to heat a hot meal this morning…everything feels okay. For this moment, this hour, things feel good. My husband took the kids to the park this morning …
Have you ever woke up at 6am and promptly had a panic attack? No? Well, neither have I…until this morning. As soon as I woke up this morning, I felt absolutely crushed and overwhelmed with anxiety. The thought of having to do this all over again…the routine, therapies, appointments, stuck with my kids who really …
Tonight, this whole year, would feel incomplete if I didn’t say something today. Today was my last day I’ll ever spend being 28. Everything considered…in a life as hard as mine is…28 was a really good year. Being as it was my favorite number…I had high hopes for it. I’ll have a lot to say …
Yesterday was one of those days that just, all around a good day. The kids didn’t wake me up in the morning. The baby slept through the night. We bought a new camera (I LOVE my Sony a7iii but we wanted something smaller as well), and a new mic. The kids ate their dinner without …
In 17 days (which happens to be my birthday), I’m flying to Florida to go on vacation. Without kids (which makes me happy), and without my husband (which makes me sad). I’m going to Universal with my older brother and my parents. Just the 4 of us haven’t gone on vacation without my husband since …
I saw a post on Facebook yesterday that basically emphasized the importance of letting people in. Letting people in even though the house is messy. Even though things aren’t perfect. Even if you haven’t “prepared”. I can see the importance of that. Not allowing the clutter or the lived in to shut down connection and …
Last night at like 8:30pm, we got a text from the realtor. “We’re still in negotiations with the neighbor who is trying to buy the whole 7 acres and the barnShe (the seller) wont take less than $150k for 3 acresWe’re only $3k apart as far as that goesAnd we’re not saying no to selling …
