I have been neglectful AF towards this blog - which is audacious considering I pay to have it! I don't even have a good excuse - I've been on summer break for the last two weeks doing nothing but going to yoga and annoying my husband. I thought it'd be fun to do a quick … Continue reading Life Lately
Just don't do it in someone's ear. Don't be that weirdo. It's been a long month. Things have happened that have made life difficult for me - emotionally, physically, and mentally.

I've begun to really look forward to Five Thangs Friday. It makes me really take a step back and think about five things that truly made my week better - which can help me when I'm stuck in a rut, as I have been. I haven't posted much lately. I've lacked thoughts, which is a … Continue reading Five Thangs Friday #6
