F.Y.I. And if you are or you’re in a relationship with a woman then you know exactly the tone in which I’m saying Eff. Why. Eye. Sometimes we can’t do it all. Actually, never can we ever do it all. But if you’re anything like me then you’ll try. And you’ll keep trying until you…

Never have I ever been the type to enjoy the process. And take all your journeying and give me all the destinations because I just enjoy the part where it is done. After hemming and hawing for almost 2 years over a replacement patio table because ours was sun worn enough to disintegrate beneath our…

📸: at Magnolia - I liked this wall for obvi reasons. Guys. This hashtag mom life is hard. Like really really really hard and for us- the hard has been hard-ing on overtime these last few months.

Ever since the time change where the time thieves maliciously stole one hour of my life I have not been the same. And by that I mean that I can't wake up before 6 am when usually I would get up at 5 am and get in my quiet time before the fruit of my…

I tried guys. I really tried. I tried to squeeze in a Mental Health Monday post but the gods would not allow it. Yesterday had more tasks and responsibilities than it did time and energy. So I took the pressure off and said "fuck it. I'll try again tomorrow." And now it's tomorrow and I…
