    My New Job Made Me Hate Myself

    February 24, 2021 /

    Everyday that I came home from work I couldn't stop the thoughts running through my head like, "You're going to turn 30, broke and working at ###." or "You're almost 30 and you already failed at your career." or worse, "So what good is your college degree?" Taking this job, this job that I desperately needed left me feeling like the biggest loser ever and I hated that. I wanted to be proud that I was working, that I was figuring out a way to get by, but all I could think about was how it wasn't supposed to be that way.

    Plans for a Healthier September

    September 7, 2020 /

    My body aches. I get headaches and stomach aches all the time. My anxiety is back at full force and my emotions are all over the place. My clothes are fitting tight again and my muscle mass is disappearing. I'm just one big mess again. So this month I've decided to get back on track and I'm listing my goals here to keep me in check and hold me accountable.

    Quarantine Day 20-23: I’m Still Here

    April 9, 2020 /

    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.

    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.

During my first visit to @joshuatreenps I fell in During my first visit to @joshuatreenps I fell in love with the joshua tree. They look like something out of a Dr Seuss book, something from another world. During my second trip to Joshua Tree, I finally got to see the Cholla Cactus Garden, and they are almost even more magical, the way they glow in the sunlight β˜€οΈπŸŒ΅ they don't even look real.

I'm not built for the city or the suburbs. I need I'm not built for the city or the suburbs. I need quiet. I need fresh air and clear skies. I need nature. And yesterday made that so so clear to me. I haven't been feeling myself lately and I knew a lot of it had to do with me being stuck at home for so many months straight and I was hoping getting away for a day would help, but I had no idea how much and how quickly. The moment I stepped out of the car in @joshuatreenps and took a deep breath of fresh air I couldn't help but smile. I felt happy and at peace. I wasn't panicked or stressed about anything. I finally felt right. 🌡

Gardening is slowly taking over my life and I love Gardening is slowly taking over my life and I love it! Spring has officially arrived and that means it's time to really get planting. Already the yard and garden is transforming, and I can't wait to watch the rest of it grow and bloom. 🌱
Was out just enjoying my jasmine (wish you could smell photos sometimes) and was so excited to see this little guy enjoying them too 🐝

Happy Birthday @imanthonymoreno πŸŽ‰ I can't belie Happy Birthday @imanthonymoreno πŸŽ‰ 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) πŸ’• 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.
