Wildly Weird
Here’s the deal. I have been with the same man since I was 18. My friendships haven’t changed in as many years. The people I talk to outside of my “circle” are other sports related parents or co-worker friends. In no world have I had to cultivate a new relationship since social media debuted. I…
Silent Night
When my husband and I first started dating we were out at some generic restaurant chatting the night away. In between bites of food I remember looking across the way and seeing an elderly couple eating their meal in complete and utter silence. At that moment I thought to myself, “I hope that is never…
Proactive Prevention
I’ve never been good at absolutes like getting on my mat every morning. I can usually talk myself out of things that make me feel better by explaining them away as a need for rest. I’m not gonna lie, it’s been difficult to discern whether I need rest or if my depression is keeping me…

Thursday Afterthoughts
Well if there’s one thing you can count on around here it’s that I’m not always meeting my goals which is how Thursday Thoughts turned itself today into Friday’s afterthought. It seems there are more things to do than hours in the day and that just never stops being true. Not only do I run…
An Invitation
My sister just said the most brilliant thing to me and I must share: “Are you solving the problem or are you creating a new one.” Every single one of us should pause and ask ourselves this as we fight for the causes that speak to our souls. Are we fixing the problem or are…
PSA: Log Off More
Well hello there. I don’t have any new followers so here’s an unsolicited-likely no one cares- “what you will find here” type post. I’ve been thinking so hard these past few, well, years about social media and what it means to try to be a whatever I’m trying to be on here and in order…
