22 for 2022

It is no secret that 2022 has gotten off to a rough start. Quite honestly, I have been in a major funk and it's been tough getting back "to the grind". Realizing this will now be third year we will be living in this pandemic is just heavy, stressful, and depressing. At first I truly … Continue reading 22 for 2022

How I Did With My 19 for 2019

Okay so, this post is tad delayed... but hey, we are still within 10 days of the New Year so I still think I am within the realm of a valid time period here.  Let's be real, I was on vacation, you were probably on vacation... and if not then at minimum all of our … Continue reading How I Did With My 19 for 2019

The End is Near!

THE END IS NEAR!!! Okay, yes- you might be rolling your eyes now (#dramatic!) but it is December 2019.  This means a lot of things- the year is about to be over. The decade is about to be over. The year 2000 was twenty years ago. How is 2020 upon us?  When we were younger … Continue reading The End is Near!

Thankful: 2019 Edition

So as I sit here in my local cafe on this gloomy Sunday before Thanksgiving... I was staring at this blank computer screen for a while.  I have one of those super annoying rainy-day headaches that isn't seeming to go away, and I was drawing a blank as to what to write about. I have … Continue reading Thankful: 2019 Edition

If you are a regular reader, I want to take a quick second to say thank you! That being said, I really dig recommendations, and I figured anyone reading may really enjoy them too.  I tend to ask or look around for recommendations from people I know or follow versus reading critic reviews. I have … Continue reading My Favorite Things: Podcast Edition
