I Forgive Me

Facebook Instagram Twitter Pinterest Spotify Mail Dear me, I forgive you. I forgive you for all the times you doubted yourself. For all the times you thought you weren’t good enough. For all the times you hated your body and didn’t eat. For all the times you hated the way you look. For all the times you got angry with yourself for failing. For all the times you thought you were stupid. For…

New Year Same Me

Did I set new year's resolutions this year? Nope. I'm the same old me because I'm forever a work in progress.

Last year I told ya’ll about how I don’t set new year’s resolutions. Every day can be a new year or a new chance to create a ‘new you.’ April 1st to April 1st, 365v days that makes a year. Why we put so much pressure on ourselves to set resolutions to become healthier, happier, set goals, etc. on January 1st I’ll never understand. You can set those goals/resolutions anytime and start from there.…

Much Needed Me Time?

I never intended to take so much time off and basically go missing in action, but here we are. I’ve always been very transparent and real with all of you and I’ll continue to do that. These last few months have been quite the whirlwind. Here’s that you missed. Well for starters, I got a full time job outside the house. Seems crazy with all I do right (ptc, work 2 jobs from home, juggle marriage,…

Did Ya Miss Me?

Obviously I’ve been away for the better part of the last two months. Popping in from time to time to write a blog or post on our socials. Although it wasn’t 0lanned or intentional, it was much needed. I definitely took on too much in life and I was drowning there for a while. I’m not even mad about it. The old me would be stressing out and pushing myself to exhaustion to keep up with everything.…

Change Isn't Always Easy

Change Isn’t Always Easy

Change is always happening. The world is constantly changing. You are constantly changing. Your life is constantly changing. Everything is constantly changing. Change can be good or bad. Usually even on the worst days change is for the better, even if it doesn’t feel like it at the time. But does change come easily? Are you ready for the changes? (more…)

Stop Chasing People

I moved out of my hometown 10 years ago. I didn’t go far, just a town over, a short 15-20 minute drive. I didn’t want to go too far from my family, but my husbands work had plans to move so the drive would be closer for him. When we moved I did my best to keep in touch with everyone. I messaged when I knew I was going to be in town and I messaged when I was in town unexpectedly. When I stopped,…

I'm The Bad Guy

I’m The Bad Guy

For as long as I can remember every story has a good guy and a bad guy. Ariel and Ursula. The 3 little pigs and the big bad wolf. Simba and Scar. Alladin and Jafar. Alice and the queen of hearts. You see what I mean? There was always a bad guy. Today I realized I might be the bad guy. (more…)

Music Sets My Soul On Fire

Music Sets My Soul On Fire

There’s so many genres of music. You can literally find a song to fit any mood, celebrate any life event, help with your mental health, bring up memories, or just help you get things done. Music just feeds my soul in ways nothing else can and I’m here for it. I’m a music junky. My taste in music is literally all over the place. (more…)

Working Moms Deserve All The Credit

Working Moms Deserve All The Credit

If we’re being honest, all moms deserve all the credit. Moms are constantly being underrated for all that they do. All the cooking, cleaning, everything for the kids, and everything in between. Motherhood is not an easy journey, but for this instance I want to focus on working moms. (more…)

She Doesn't Remember

She Doesn’t Remember

Wow life has just been going on full force over here. I’m working full time for the first time in what feels like forever, while also juggling Sassy Mamaroo, a part time job, mom life, and my wifely duties. It feels like there is never enough time in a day to get done what I need and never enough time to sleep. I’m always tired, but we’re adjusting to our new daily lives. (more…)

Wear The Swimsuit

You know that saying “take the picture” where moms basically are asking for their picture to be taken. Always the picture taker, never in the pictures. We just want our picture taken. I don’t care if I’m still in sweats and haven’t showered or look unflattering from that angle. Take that picture, no one else is going too. include me in the trip to the beach or the family vacation or the birthday…

Cancelled Plans

I will cancel plans and not feel bad about it. It also doesn't make me a bad friend.

I’ve mentioned this before, but I’m a homebody. I love just chilling at home doing my own thing. Don’t get me wrong I love going out and doing things too. If my choices ever are to do something or stay home, 80% of the time I will choose to stay home. Home is my favorite place to be – no societal pressure, no judgement, no pretending to enjoy myself, no spending money. (more…)

I'm A Crier

I’m A Crier

I’m a crier. It happens all the time. When I’m frustrated. Overwhelmed. Tired. Exhausted. Sad. Mad. Happy. Seriously all the time. I guess it’s just my way of expressing my emotions. I’m okay with it, but sometimes it can be really embarrassing. (more…)

Fake It Til You Make It

Fake It Til You Make It

You know that saying ‘fake it til you make it?’ What does that even mean? I guess it can be interpreted however anyone wants to interpret it. Seems like it’s more of an attitude and not actually going out and faking it until you make it. I could be wrong. Who knows. I think that’s the great thing about the saying though, you can interpret it however you want to. (more…)

Stay At Home VS Working Mom

Stay At Home VS Working Mom - my perspective as I've been both.

I have been blessed throughout the years to get to be both a stay at home mom and a working mom. I’ve even been a work from home mom. I’ve pretty much done it all. I know people have a lot to say about which one is better and why. Really it’s whatever works best for your family. Since I’ve done both, I thought I’d give you my insight. (more…)
