Okay Then.
First of all, thank you. After I wrote my last post I instantly felt a weight lift. Not all of the weight, but some of it. And it was just enough weight to help. Since I wrote that post a week ago, I haven’t cried. I haven’t unnecessarily snapped at Matt or Riley. And I haven’t […]

Not Okay.
I have a confession. Last week, I was not okay. Not in the least. I broke down crying several days in a row. I was lethargic. I was short-tempered. Everything was spiraling downwards and I didn’t know why. Nothing was okay. I was not okay. Friends and family would ask me how I was doing […]

It’s Okay to Sit.
I have a confession to make: Sometimes, I sit down at the park. Not that big of a confession, but one I felt needed sharing nonetheless. You guys. Sometimes I walk Riley to the park and I just want him to play. I don’t want to have to follow him around and monitor his every […]

The Sweet Moments.
On Sunday we went to Travel Town. And then Riley took a THREE HOUR nap. It was damn glorious. And I had the audacity to talk about it. And share it. And bask in it. Because Monday rolled around and Riley woke up at the crack of 4:30AM. And did not go back to sleep. […]

Outlander Obsessed.
I have a confession to make. Remember how I talked about my new found love for Outlander? Yes, well it’s still going strong. So much so that I just rewatched season one and restarted season two. For Christmas Matt bought me the Outlander TV show companion book so I wouldn’t have to keep checking it out […]
