Since we have moved, I typically use social media to keep up with certain family members and church friends and family. Unfortunately, it seems you cannot escape the political garbage and traumatizing news stories, so I occasionally discover global news on there as well. Obviously, I take that with a grain of salt. Social media…

Stress! It is crazy how much pressure we can truly handle without popping our tops off. While this is not the most difficult time of my life (at least as far as mental health is concerned) it is making its way to the top spots for sure. If the whole van thing was not enough,…

They day my father passed away, I met several strangers that I felt were extremely understanding and professional. Due to my dad passing away at his home, law enforcement did have to send out a couple officers to make sure there was no foul play involved. My sister had just called me, telling me the…

A difficult lesson I was forced to learn: Not every relationship is beneficial to you, but it is okay to walk away. To preface, I grew up in a very traditional family that had a very strong sense of loyalty. While that loyalty could be positive in many circumstances, I witnessed countless negative examples of…

This is such an interesting question because obviously I would not want to travel to places like North Korea or anywhere else that is hostile to Americans lol. Being in the southern US, I would also stay clear of the places known for cartel activity, particularly along the border and around the metropolitan areas, especially…

When Kolton and I got married, we decided to do the bare minimum which is just to go up to the courthouse, say a few vows in front of a judge and go home. We are both pretty uncomfortable being in front of people, so we did not want to be miserable at our own…

Being my unsure self that likes to bounce in between things, I have a couple, as they offer different food at each place.

I literally just want to be happy and at peace, regardless if that is up in Heaven or down here still. Obviously, I do not want to die, but the way the world is going now a lot can happen in ten years lol *Just a quick insert here as I genuinely hate these future…

1)Coffee! – This is such a hard thing for me to kick to the curb, due to my preference being the sweeter coffees like Dutch Bros. Even if I had a rough night’s sleep which is pretty regular at this point, knowing I have coffee to enjoy in the morning cheers me up greatly. 2)Books!…

Honestly, I hardly remember anything academic from high school. In fact, the majority of the lessons I learned are social in nature. One such lesson was how truly temporary relationships are. In public school, you may have been pushed into the same circles with the same people solely due to growing up with them. The…

Personally, I have always preferred walking and medium cardio, such as hiking, for my exercising. As I believe I have mentioned in a previous post, I grew up in a walking family. Every get together we would all take a stroll down to the park or around the neighborhood after the meal. These walks were…

Personally, I am not one to re-read books especially full-length novels. There are simply too many new books I want to explore that I just do not have the time or motivation to revisit the ones I have since read. The only caveat to this is the Bible as I can reread the same book…

This is such an overwhelming question!! Just off the top of my head, Sophie from ‘Howl’s Moving Castle’ is up there. Even though she starts off as a bit of a dull character, gets cursed into an older lady, has to deal with all of Howl’s shenanigans; the beautiful and whimsical nature of the world…

What makes a good pet for one person, may be a terrible pet for somebody else. It truly depends on how much effort and money you are willing to put into it. Also, it is probably not a good idea for somebody who is afraid of reptiles to have a snake. Likewise, people who have…
