Milo Monday and a Yummy Recipe

It's already the Monday after Thanksgiving. I don't know about you but this holiday weekend flew by and we are officially in the "after the 1st of the year season!" This time of year is my absolute favorite. I mean for all the obvious reasons like people are nicer and all the lights glowing after…

Thursday Thoughts: Thanksgiving Edition

I only have one thought I'm thinking today and other than all the delicious food I plan to consume, it's this. Well, hold on, I actually have a little more suspense that I think I'd like to build up. Yea. I do. I could go into a whole spiel (read shh-peel because who knows how…

Dear Diary

Well I’ve been off of social media for 27 days now. Like off, off. Like not even logging in to check something real quick, off. Which is approximately 27 days after I claimed I was getting off social media. I guess I would say I had to taper off of the socials. I mean give…

I’m On A Podcast!

Milo Monday is being demoted for a week because I HAVE NEWS!!!! I had the absolute pleasure of talking with author, fellow mom of 5, and my online writer friend, Brittany Meng of The Motherhood Metamorphosis Podcast a few weeks ago!

Milo Monday

Not to like harp on a certain situation but it looks like I am going to soooo... ... for the one hundredth time I am mentioning that I am phasing out my social media. The reasons are 3,000 fold and I'm sure I'll be blogging all about them in the coming weeks but believe it…

An Invitation

It Matters

*Originally posted on Her View From Home* *Originally posted on Her View From Home* There’s a phrase I use to describe myself on the regular. It may be cliche and overused, but I find that it really captures being human.   Especially a human with depression and anxiety.   Especially a Christian woman trying to navigate through…

Weighing In

I eat intuitively. I move my body every day. And here’s a snapshot of said body. My BMI says I’m obese. My belly looks lumpy and it is the antithesis of flat. Agree to disagree but I have no intention of losing weight or even trying to change my shape. Because something deep down inside…
