I used to feel guilty when I treated myself to special things, like cute socks, clothes, shoes, a night out, or whatever. Especially when it cost money and I knew I had the responsibility of providing for my children. As I matured, did some self-work, and started really thinking about life from different perspectives, I […]
Ramblings
Happiness or Monogamy? (Part 1)
I recently decided I wanted to work towards being in a committed, monogamous relationship. I even thought I had a likely candidate. I thought I had been doing enough work on me that I would make a good partner, and that this particular gentleman had enough of the qualities I think I desire that we […]
Hawaii 2021 (part 1)
I used to dream about taking my kids on an epic family vacation to Hawaii or somewhere like that, where we could experience all kinds of things for the first time together. I didn’t really think I would ever actually be in the position to make this happen. The reality that my oldest son and […]

The happiest people have felt the saddest. There are always two […]
Shenanigans
Anyone with kids knows they keep you on your toes. Especially when you have more than one and get to experience the parental side of sibling rivalry. My boys are 21 months apart and could go from best friends to sworn enemies and back around in under a minute. It was always an adventure with […]
It Costs to be The Boss
Attention men: Please don’t inbox me telling me stories about how you’re single and want to take me out when at least a part of that statement is not true. This is a fair warning that going forward, it will cost to be a boss. Social media has opened up our worlds to stay in […]
