“You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain.” I think we’ve all heard this quote. And while it may not be true for every individual, I think it can find its place in many facets of life. I have a lot of places that have felt like home…

Losing Touch
I think a lot about how big the world is. How every person I meet is living as complicated and in-depth of a life that I am. Sometimes I feel so wrapped up in my own stuff, my own mind. And as I get older, my social circles get smaller. I’ve lost connection with people…
October Recap
Favorite show: Schitt’s Creek Favorite memory: I bought my nephew a rock tumbler for his birthday, every week I go to his house and switch out the grit with him and watch the progress. This will be our last week and I've had fun bonding with him over it! Favorite place: No traveling this month!…
Time Moves Fast But Unbearably Slow
I feel like the last two years of my life didn't even happen. I've been at a new job for a week now and it's just like no time has passed. Just like I hadn't lost my job, moved back to my home state, and had to start all over. Because we moved from New…
The Struggle Of Being Sentimental
I've never had a good memory and I've never had a huge attachment to places. But if I have a token of a place or a photo of a time, then I'm able to remember the event more clearly. I collect things from important people and places I go and I've become very sentimental. I…

Your Bad Relationship Didn’t Waste Your Time
I think we all experience some sort of regret after a break up. It just feels like you spent so much of your life dedicated to one person when you could have been doing other things. You could have been traveling, you could have been spending more time with your friends and family, you could…

Birthday Memories
I was challenged by Bill to share some birthday memories! My birthday was on May 31st, so I'll share what I did as I turned 27 as well as some highlights from past birthdays 🙂 My birthday can be a bit weird, sometimes it falls on Memorial Day. And I've never really had an over-the-top…
Q&A For 4K
I've been blogging for a long time, much longer than it feels! I still feel like a novice, most of the time just blurting out my thoughts and hoping someone can relate. I truly appreciate the people who have joined me on my journey here, some who have been so consistent with me that I…
