There are many reasons why having a bestie is super awesome and important. Being alive is hard y’all. There’s responsibilities and expectations and requirements. And that’s all a bit overwhelming. Also – even if we travel through this space we call life with people who are close to us, we rarely find ourselves in the […]
Read MoreBeing unemployed means I can basically do whatever I want to do whenever I want. (Okay, that’s not entirely true because I still need to take care of Eli/Dave/Ollie, but it’s mostly true.) If I want to nap, I nap. If I want to craft, I craft. If I want to read, I read. And […]
Read MoreSo today marks seven years since that horrible day when it all nearly came to a screeching halt. The year’s been full of it’s up and it’s downs. This year is the first year I am able to say that I’ve been home for the whole year. I’ve enjoyed my time being my own tremendously, […]

Read MoreJanuary (into early February) has been a bit of a month. I know I’ve been lax about posting weekly like I promised, amongst other failings these past few weeks. But it all kinda came to a head the last few days and I’ve been paying dearly for shoving stuff down and away for too long. […]
Read MoreI’ve been a reader since second grade. I fell in love with the Little House on the Prairie book series, and when that was done I just kept reading from there. Reading defined me through most of my child, preteen, teen, and adult-hood. I used to get in trouble as a kid for reading too […]
Read MoreSo this week saw Eli and I once again without Dave as he set off to California for work. He was basically gone 5 days this trip, but honestly, both Eli and I agreed, for some reason this time it felt so much longer. We’re just glad he’s home. I slept better last night than […]
