Anyone else deep in the winter blues? https://twitter.com/rosieculture/status/1619095197316698112?s=46&t=zbs0ntKEormA1bm39IMsHA There’s nothing worse to me than a winter without one really good snow where you can go out and build a snowman. My dog loves it, I love it, and global warming has taken it away from us!! Besides that, I’ve just all around have had a…

Maybe It’s Not Me
I’m a self-proclaimed introvert and have been for many years. I’m an introvert mostly due to the fact that I feel drained after spending time with other people and I need time to recharge after interactions. I’m not an introvert because I don’t like people and I’d rather be alone. In the last couple of…
Let It Roll Off Your Shoulders
I'm not really a "let it go" kind of person. You can pretty much ask anyone I've ever dated, they're probably like why the heck does Rosie still reference me in some of her blog posts when we broke up almost 10 years ago?! Things just stick with me, I wish they didn't. I get…
The Struggles Of Being Over-Eager
The trouble with people who are over-eager is that we are often over-everything. We are over-thinkers, we are over-dramatic, we over-romanticize, we are overwhelmed. So getting too excited about things just comes with the territory. Because one small possibility opens up so many doors for us. We non stop think about how this could work…
Getting In Your Own Way
I once read that anxiety tortures you twice, it hits you leading up to the thing you see anxious about and then you have anxiety once that thing actually occurs. Double the anxiety for one thing. I’ve always gotten in my own way on things. I had actually given up on the job I currently…
Why I Prefer Nights In
There are many days where I take my relationship for granted and we just go with the flow of life. Forgetting to stop and appreciate each other. But on nights in, I really get to soak in how I live with my best friend and my cutest little fam. I've always preferred nights in. In…
It’s Not Always 50/50
I recently read some Twitter wisdom that really stuck with me. When it comes to relationships, everyday won’t be 50/50. Some days will, but some days all he will have is 10 and you gotta give 90 but it’s okay. Because some days all you’ll have is 10 and he’ll give 90. I rarely feel…
The Unknowns Of The Pandemic
I am really fortunate to not have yet been heavily burdened by COVID-19. I am fortunate that no one I know has died or even gotten very sick. I am fortunate in that I have a job now and I am vaccinated. But man, this pandemic has thrown me for a loop mentally. Just when…
Anxiety Around Actually Returning To Normal
On April 23, 2020 I wrote a blog post on this exact topic. I will be the first to admit I've been thoroughly naïve through this whole pandemic, always thinking that things were about to get better. It's been over a year since I wrote that last post and now, finally, things are slightly resembling…

Vaccinated!
I sometimes experience a stretch of days where I just feel so unhappy and hopeless. The weight of the pandemic, staying in my house, not being able to do the things I love - it all becomes too much. To the point where the days just become one and all I can do is sit…
