Great Expectations.
If there is one thing that motherhood has taught me, it’s keeping my expectations in check. Sometimes I think I know exactly what my kids want or will like and I am just so far off it’s almost laughable. For Riley’s birthday last week we took him to Disneyland and California Adventure. I was absolutely […]

Heavy.
Welp. The end of 2019 truly tested me. I feel bad whenever people ask me how the holidays were, because I’ve been pretty frank about it. Between December 21st and January 1st, four people that I know died. My cousin, my great aunt on my mom’s side, my great aunt on my dad’s side and […]

Currently.
Currently. I haven’t been writing. Like at all. And it’s driving me crazy. I realized the other day that I’ve had this blog for almost twelve years. I just got the email to renew my domain and it’s just wild that I’ve been putting words out there for so long. Words, that looking back I […]

The Wedding Date.
I have about three drafts waiting to be finished, a book that needs to be read, TV shows I can’t wait to start (House of Cards, Sabrina, Great British Baking Show), dishes that need to be put away and an apartment that desperately needs a vacuum. Basically, I feel like I have a whole lot […]
