Trying New Things

Since my last post, Muted, the soul searching continues as I try to learn how to show up as my authentic self. One thing I’ve decided to try is getting out of my comfort zone in different ways, which ironically enough is something I started doing about a month ago (minus the whole conscious decision […]

Muted

Like everyone else in the world I follow several celebrities and accounts of people I don’t know on Instagram. Celebrities, hashtags, yadda yadda. You know the drill. Just recently a friend got me into watching the stories people post, which I had previously ignored completely because this is what I do with new technology and […]

Finding Happy Again

We all have times in our lives when we get a little down, right? Get a little funk-ish? If you’re like me, you might possibly have some difficulty getting back out of those little “rabbit holes” you get into. Kind of like your mind burrows in and makes a nice little spot to lie down […]

Depression

This is a difficult post for me to write. I don’t open up about this topic very often, and I don’t think I have on here when I was actually going through it but I felt like I should now. My depression is returning. Or has returned. There are certain signs I have been noticing […]

With Age Comes…. Doctors

I’ve hit that in-between age now where in certain conversations people may look at me and say, “Oh, you’re still young!” at which I smile brightly and love them unconditionally for saying so.  This is the case unless, apparently, I’m talking about health issues where I’ve found the response takes a sharp turn into, “You […]

The Younger, Cooler Me

In light of the plans I have to move out of my house I’ve been doing some de-cluttering lately.  This typically begins with the best of intentions but quickly dissolves into me basically skipping down memory lane for an unnecessary amount of time until I decide that’s enough “work” for the day and move on […]

Back on Track

I have been told before that I am a good “idea person” but not such a good “action person”.  It’s not my favorite assessment of all time, but it’s a fair and true statement.  As much as I hate to admit it, I do have a tendency to kind of lose myself at times.  I […]

A Big Nudge

I normally keep things pretty light on here, but yesterday morning I had this thought that I wanted to share, that over the course of the day developed into a whole ‘thing’.  I’ll let you know up front this post is about God so if you’re not up for it, bail now.  I hope you’ll […]
