Because we're all a little bit of both.
This past weekend, while out to dinner, Dan and I got to talking about goals and dreams we hope to accomplish professionally. And I told him I felt guilty for not having made more money these past couple of years. One, because I want to be a contributing partner in this marriage, but two because [...]
2022 was an interesting one, to say the least. There were many challenges that came my way, but nothing so mind-blowingly life-altering that caused great suffering. Just challenges. Life stuff. Stuff that definitely knocked me down here and there, but ultimately I was (I AM) okay. More than okay. Because even through these challenges, I’m [...]
Right now, as I type, I am sitting on the foot of my bed- door shut and locked, the sound of the fan spinning right above me, small pieces of my hair swipe my cheeks as the wind picks them up. I’m looking out my window and it’s a bit cloudy. It feels cozy in [...]
As many of you know by now, Dan and I moved from San Diego to Denver in October of 2019, which means that this month marks 3 years here. And it’s really weird to think about how that’s well over the time I spent living in SD, yet, so much happened there. I got my [...]
I shared recently on IG how I’ve been hearing about so much loss and suffering lately. Friends who have lost family members, complete strangers who’ve lost a loved one, humans and animals suffering at the hands of others, or from neglect. It makes me angry. And it also makes me feel like curling up in [...]
It’s officially been over one year now since mine and Dan’s wedding- the biggest and best party we’ve ever thrown with so many of our loved ones- and I’m still not over how lucky we are to have gotten to experience this kind of moment in life. It truly was so freaking special. And, even [...]
Not sure about you guys, but I’ve been feeling a little off as of late. Not necessarily in a bad way, but in a way where I feel like I’m rediscovering who I am. Like the things that I used to do or like have changed and I am not quite sure what they are [...]
Yesterday was my birthday- my last year in my 20’s- which is WILD to think about. And usually, that would send me down a rabbit hole of anxiety and fear, but this birthday felt so different. After 29 years on this planet, I think I’ve finally figured out how to navigate the emotions that come [...]
So today my Mom painted my childhood bedroom- walls that have writing from friends from over 10 years ago. Dated with little blurbs about whatever it was we were doing that day- a walk-in time capsule. Most notably- moving out of my parents house for the first time- to our first apartment, and for the [...]
I know I must sound like a broken record lately, with all the talking I’ve done about our recent travels, but honestly it feels like that’s all there’s been to talk about. It’s been an all-consuming part of our lives for the past few weeks, and now we can finally relax and reflect back on [...]
