    Turning 33…Happy Birthday to Me!

    January 27, 2024 / 0 Comments

    I feel more like myself, more excited, and more at peace with the world than I have in a long time. My relationship with my body is rough. My anxiety and insomnia are still in need of some serious management. I still feel lost and unsure of where I'm headed or even want to go. Life is still hard, but life feels doable finally.

    A Look Back at 2023: Turning Up the Metaphorical Volume

    January 21, 2024 / 0 Comments

    When it comes to my mission to rediscover myself and wake up the real me that I seem to have lost along the way, last year I feel like I made a major breakthrough and the best way I can think to describe it is that it feels like I finally found a way to slowly start turning the volume back up.

    Reflecting on my “Month of Me” – I accidentally took almost two months off

    June 16, 2023 / 0 Comments

    The last blog post I wrote was over six weeks ago, my "Month of Me" post. When I declared May the month of me and wrote that post I didn't mean to take any time off from this blog, let alone nearly two months, but looking back at it, that may have been a good thing. Even though I love writing and I love sharing, and I love writing this blog, taking the pressure of having to write every week gave me the opportunity to fully commit to my month of me and prioritize some other things. And I think I came out of the month with some good habits…

    It’s been decided, I’m declaring May the month of Me

    May 1, 2023 / 0 Comments

    That's it. I've decided. Not to take away from the all-important and close to my heart, melanoma awareness month, May is officially the month of Me. And I don't mean that in any sort of selfish way. I'm making May the month of Me because I need it. I need it for my health, my sanity, and my overall well-being.

    Confession Time: I Obsess and Overthink Everything (Almost)

    March 7, 2023 / 0 Comments

    You see I'm the person that will write and re-write an email or a text over and over again obsessing over every word, even when it's not an important message. When someone takes too long to write me back I'll worry that my sense of humor or sarcasm was misread and literally have to stop myself from texting back to clarify (99% of the time I'm reading into nothing and logically I know that, but that doesn't help me). After I hang out with an old friend I'll replay the afternoon or the evening in my head worried that I may have done something wrong. And even when there is…

    2022 – New Year Means New Years Resolutions

    January 20, 2022 / 1 Comment

    I spent a lot of 2021 upset about where I was (am) in life and was too scared to actually make any changes. I spent all of 2021 thinking about the life I wanted and the changes I could make to get that life, while ultimately doing very little about it. I was so afraid of making a move or taking a risk that could fail, that I did nothing for most of the year. I don't want that to happen this year.

    My Weight and 30 Day Challenges Round 2: Learning to Love Myself

    May 25, 2020 / 3 Comments

    Thanks to COVID-19 and the Safer at Home Orders, I've been trying to use this time to get my life back on track and ultimately start working on me again. When I did my last 30 Day Hula Hoop Challenge it really did help me not just feel accomplished, but it helped me start to feel different about myself. So, I decided why not start there again?

    Quarantine Day 51-59: 2020 is still going to be my Year

    May 15, 2020 / 4 Comments

    There seemed to be an overall consensus that 2019 sucked! And I fully agree with that. 2019 was definitely one of my worse years on record and I was so looking forward to 2020. Then COVID-19 happened and there once again seems to be an overall agreement that this year has gone to hell as well. For a moment there I would have agreed, but I've been thinking a lot lately, doing a lot of reflecting and, although I was struggling there for a minute, overall I'm happy. I'm happy and I feel like I'm headed in a very healthy direction.

    Quarantine Day 20-23: I’m Still Here

    April 9, 2020 / 0 Comments

    Last time I wrote an entry, I mentioned that I thought quarantine was starting to get to me and that the days were starting to blur. I was still being productive and getting things done. Now, however, I don't think quarantine is starting to get to me, I know it is. I'm still working out every day and I've been keeping up with my 30 day hula hoop challenge, but besides that I haven't done much more. I'm still getting my butt out of bed every day before 8 am, usually around 7:30, but I'm going to bed earlier and earlier every day.

Okay, maybe I shouldn't say "fatal" given the current state of things, but as I said in my Day 1 & 2 entry, I apologize for any inappropriate humor I may use. Anyways, as I was saying, I screwed up and cleaned my house way too quick and now I'm struggling to find ways to kill time.
