Another year come and gone. Crazy, isn’t it? Today marks the second anniversary of the accident that changed my life. Looking back on the first year, a lot has changed since then. What hasn’t changed is my appreciation for those around me. My gratitude is as deep today as it was ...
Want to know how long this post has been sitting as a draft? Fifteen days. I’ve come back to it every other day or so, writing and deleting. I don’t know why this particular post is so hard to put together, but it has been. I think it has something to do with the very personal ...
The Wednesday roundup is back! I’ve concluded that most things I do on my blog are going to be sporadic. I cannot promise there will be a roundup every week, but I’ll try my best. You guys, I’m trying my best here! OK, but I can be better about planning ahead. That’s ...
Y’all. February is flying. I just looked at the calendar and realized I hadn’t blogged in 11 days (whoops) and have plenty of drafts. I just have to hit publish! What am I doing?! Anyway, I wanted to get back into the swing of things by sharing the chicken wing recipe I used on ...
Remember this post? It’s been a little under two weeks and I can say that I’ve started to make little changes to my life, but nothing overly significant. That’s probably best though, right? Too much too quickly and it’s probably easier to get burned out. A gradual ...
Oh, Valentine’s Day. It’s a day that has taken many forms over the years for me. In fact, I’ll never forget the “V(odka) Day” celebrations of college. Ah, memories. I’ve honestly never disliked Valentine’s Day. It’s always been a day to share ...
A couple of weeks ago I published a blog on masking my scars with makeup. I was absolutely floored by the response, and was so humbled by the many who reached out to share their stories with me. From burn scars to acne scars to everything in between, there are many of us dealing with a variety ...
I’m going to be honest with y’all: I have very little motivation lately when it comes to working out and eating healthy. It’s bad. And I mean really bad. It’s been especially difficult because I’m a pretty active person overall (or so I tell myself). I’ve run ...
I’m back! I’m back! And I’m here with another weekly roundup of what I wore. Although, I realized now that I accidentally labeled last week’s post as this week’s. My bad. I’ve corrected the issue, but why did no one tell me I was ahead an entire week?! More ...
Happy Wednesday, friends! I got to talking with my the high school cheerleaders I coach yesterday about shopping/spending money. One thing led to another and we specifically onto the topic of how to shop in a way to stretch your dollar and make it go further. It was fun to listen to them talk ...
Look what has returned! The Instant Pot Diaries! And because this is the second edition, I took the singular diary and made it plural. Big day around here, folks. Big day. If you read last week’s post, you know I tried spaghetti and meatballs for my very first meal. It was an experience. ...
Hello, hello. Welcome to my weekly roundup of what I wore. There are a few reasons I’ve decided to do a weekly roundup, and I’ll share those reasons with you now: I recently got an Echo Look for my closet and it’s really helpful in documenting what I’ve worn. It’s ...
