Let me tell you. I don't want this blog to turn into a social media bash fest but like it's the only thing going on in my head right now so I guess it is kind of going to work itself out that way. Do you know what's great about that? That it can. Because…

Thursday Thoughts: Sleep Matters
I have a confession that shouldn't be embarrassing but it is embarrassing. I mean I've spoken about suicidal ideation for Christ's sake but the fact that I, gulp, snore, is, to me, more intimate a reveal. But there it is. I have been living in a fog and impressing my children with my "hardcore" and…
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!

Thursday Thoughts

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…
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…
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…
