    I Rang in the New Year with COVID

    January 10, 2021 /

    By the title of this post, you probably can figure out what it is going to be about, but before I get into the details can I just say, could there be a more perfect wrap up to 2020? I mean we got our tests results on New Years Eve. It literally felt like 2020 was saying, "Nope you ain't getting out of here that easy."

    Turning 29 – Goals

    January 28, 2020 /

    Most years rather than making a list of New Year's resolutions, I make birthday goals - things I want to do, improve upon and change for the year to come. My birthday is so close to New Year's anyways, that I always feel like it's pointless to make any eating right and/or working out goals, because I know as soon as my birthday week rolls around all my progress is going to be derailed.

    Anxiety and Negative Self-Talk in the New Year

    January 15, 2020 /

    Going into 2020 I had all these plans, just like everyone else, for the new and improved me. I was going to workout more and eat better. Save money. Eat out less. Start reading again. Stay on top of my blog post and make better content. Embark on all those projects I keep saying I'm going to do, but never even start.

    2019 Nearly Killed Me – A Look Back on the Year

    December 30, 2019 /

    2019 made me it's bitch and I honestly feel like I'm lucky to be standing. This year tested me physically and emotionally; and looking back I failed myself at every turn. I thought 2018 was a tough year for me, but I made the most of it. I grew. I learned new things. And I started to get better. A lot of good came out of the bad of 2018.

Happy Birthday @imanthonymoreno 🎉 I can't belie Happy Birthday @imanthonymoreno 🎉 I can't believe you're no longer a teenager, this is making me feel really old lol. Anyways, back on track, getting to know you better and getting to be a bigger part of your life has been one of the best things to happen to me these past few years ❤️ You are growing up to be a very impressive, hardworking young man and I can't see what the future holds for you. In this coming year I wish for nothing but good things and great adventures for you (and for us I wish for more pictures lol) 💕 Love you kid!

It's starting to warm up here in SoCal, so it feel It's starting to warm up here in SoCal, so it feels weird to share a photo of leaves changing in Utah back in early fall, but this was the last time I was outside exploring nature and I'm dying to get back out there. I want to climb mountains and cross streams. I want to hear the birds chirping and the leaves rustling. I just want to get out of the house and out of my neighborhood.

I'm a few days off on this, but I am officially in I'm a few days off on this, but I am officially in my final week of my 20s. As I approach my 30th I've been reflecting a lot on this past decade and thinking ahead to what is to come.
It's really rare for me to post photos of myself, especially photos of me alone, and I almost never take selfies. I've never been big on that, but I've noticed over the years I've started doing even less and less. And over the past couple years I've even started avoiding being in photos all together. There are different reasons for that, but a lot of it does stem from my personal insecurities and that's something I really want to work on moving forward. I want to be comfortable in my own skin and proud of who I am.
Now I don't think posting a bunch of photos of myself is going to fix anything, but it is a start and a step out of my comfort zone. So I scoured all my photos (tried to stick to photos close to my birthday) from the past 10 years and found 1 photo from every year (2011-2020) of just myself. (Some years were even hard to find than I expected.) And even if some of these photos make me cringe, it's kinda fun to see how I've changed (and how I haven't).
