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…
Being An Introverted Blogger
When I think "blogger" I think of peppy, well dressed women with perfect hair and perfect lives.

I’ve never really felt like I fit in. Being quite an introvert and a homebody, I’ve felt myself try to change on many occasions to please other people and to just be accepted. I’ve tried to be the girl that was too cool for school. The girl that only kept a few friends, hated all…
The Low Days
I'm taking it one day at a time. Even though I wake up every morning not sure what day it is. The weekends blend into the week days. I work at all hours just to feel productive. But I also get a lot of time to catch up on hobbies, working out, trying new recipes.…
A Month Of Working From Home
How did we get here? Feels like days ago I received an emergency text from my company telling us to work from home. I had to go into the office a few days later just to get my things and my plants because I wasn't really expecting it. And now, over a month later, I…
A Social Distancing Introvert
Okay, I know I'm not the only introvert who did a little happy dance when social distancing was recommended. Introverts have been social distancing on our own for a while.
