I have spent way too many years focused on what I /should/ be doing with goals I want to accomplish and have found myself falling short every time. I am my own worst enemy and my critique of myself isn’t always warranted. While I’m not and will never excuse laziness of any kind, I want... Continue Reading →
If ESPN can have highlights than so can I.
It’s more common to look forward around this time of year. What didn’t you accomplish in the current year? Will you accomplish it in the upcoming year? How can you be better? How can you change? All of these are valid questions to ask. Personal growth is something that should be life long, but what... Continue Reading →
A First Date Under the City Lights.
All too often as a resident of the Big Apple, I find myself jaded by a work schedule, the inconveniently placed tourists needing to get out of my way, and the general foot traffic of city dwellers. It can become all too consuming to work and want to get the hell home. I’ve written about... Continue Reading →
I am not a “daily” person and that’s okay.
Photo by Tirachard Kumtanom on Pexels.com I say this as I sit here 9 days into my marriage, a little bit disappointed. The original intent to document daily love letters to my beautiful bride for the next 365 days but my body had other plans. The day after our nuptials (more about those later) I... Continue Reading →

Did... Continue Reading →

All work and no play makes me a dull girl.
I wish I was in a better mood. I wish I had motivational things to report; like how to manage anxiety in 10 easy steps, or results from recovery. However, I am in the thick of what anxious people call a setback. While my anxiety hasn’t returned to full throttle that keeps me up at... Continue Reading →
Hitting the Reset Button.
The last three weeks have been nothing short of chaotic. I turned 30 as I went on and on about. 30 was good, 30 wasn’t as fossilizing as one would think then wedding planning kicked into high gear. We’re in the finals months of it all, and all of the little projects and ideas and... Continue Reading →
7/30: Stay the course!
30 days feels completely unattainable but I will not be stopped. This whole process began in vain to celebrate my three decades and essentially feel better about getting older. However, it turned into an actual challenge for me. An exercise to teach, prepare and hopefully further my writing. For those who read these prompts, I... Continue Reading →
