Anyone else continually grasping for the good in all of this? COVID-19 has brought on a lot of hardships, stress, distance, and isolation than anything we’ve ever experienced. So I find myself searching for anything good each day to hold on to, mainly because I don’t think I could handle life if I didn’t. I’ve […]
I’m a firm believer in love languages. If you prefer to give love through giving a hug or writing a letter, I want to know. I want to know what to expect, so I don’t expect something that you don’t like to do. If you’re not into PDA, great, now that I know, I won’t […]
I’m officially home from my first trip of 2019! Spending a weekend in a place I called home for 10 years, with the people I called best friends growing up, and celebrating new life made for the greatest weekend trip to Texas. I feel so fortunate to be able to continue to go back to […]
A year ago I was a pile of nerves driving up to my first day at my new job. I’m not kidding, before leaving my house, I was crying wishing I didn’t have to go back to work. Yeah, I loved being unemployed simply for the fact I got to hang out with my dog. […]

Everyday I wake up at five a.m. I grumble my way out of bed, brush my teeth, blink into the mirror questioning my sanity, put on my workout clothes, and then head to the gym. This hasn’t always been my routine. I’m lazy. I like to just relax, bum around, and watch tv (“oh my […]
One year ago I was standing alone in the Venice, Italy airport on the verge of a panic attack because I couldn’t find my group and the people I’d be spending the next two weeks with. I was desperately trying to connect to WiFi or get some type of service to get in touch with […]
When someone hears the words “super long layover,” they often immediately groan. But when you have a 22 hour layover in Honolulu, on your way to New Zealand, with two of your best friends, you find a way to cram in as much Hawaiian awesomeness during that long layover that you can.
