We’re All Mad Here

You know that post that says something of, "You don't know what others are going through. Everyone is fighting their own battle," or whatever preachy nonsense? I just got a dose of that. Yesterday I ran into someone that I met way back when I first moved to West Texas. I hadn't seen her in... Continue Reading →

Life Does Not Suck

It’s a busy time of year for us and we've been here before. School gets started, Aria's schedule fills up, Vince starts a new bowling season, putting together Aria's birthday party, all the Fall activities, and in between there I do my best to keep it all going with perfect pitch-black eyeliner. Miss Aria is... Continue Reading →

So Long Sweet Summer

The summer has officially come to an end. What I thought would be a quiet summer turned out to be a few weeks of reconnection and it was really nice. Second day of school selfie. I reconnected with people that it’s not that we lost touch, but we’ve just been busy with life. We're all... Continue Reading →

Season of Change

With this school year wrapping up, it seems like my little familia is having a lot of stuff going on. There have been changes, endings and new things are coming very quickly. My people. First, one of our longtime friends Daniel, passed away a week ago. His brother David let us know last Sunday that... Continue Reading →

There’s Still Hope

Aria was about 4 weeks old. I had an appointment to be at that afternoon. Vince was at work. It had taken me like 5 hours to get ready - and I didn't even do my hair! I just threw on a cap. Between getting myself ready, getting Aria ready, getting her fed, and figuring... Continue Reading →

Spring Cleanse

I’ve got 99 problems and these people make 100 of them better. Y’all, is the school year over yet? This time of year gets crazy busy for us. Between end-of-the-year activities for Aria, planning summer activities and trips for the familia, and life - We've got a lot going on for the next few weeks.... Continue Reading →

Shine On

Ever since I got my first apartment, I’ve made it a point to always have a candle lit somewhere in the house. At first it was for the scent because candles can fill any room with a great aroma. Also, sitting in the dark with only a candle going is so calming. Even the smallest... Continue Reading →

So Much For That

So yesterday morning sucked. There’s something I’ve been wanting to do so, so bad for a very, very long time. And I got to a point where I was like, “I can do this! It’s finally going to happen!” Then, little by little, it kept slipping away. Yesterday it finally all just fell apart. I... Continue Reading →

Body Betrayals and Inflation

Like most normal people right now, my little familia is feeling the hit of inflation more than usual. I used to love going grocery shopping. Now it’s kind of painful (each trip is at least $100). The cost of stuff has gone up so much these past few months. We've stopped eating out as much... Continue Reading →

I Purple You

A couple of weeks ago, Aria and I got to go watch BTS’s Yet To Come concert that showed in theaters all over. A little back story first. Last year BTS did a similar presentation in theaters, but Aria ended up being on spring break and went out of town at that time. I didn’t... Continue Reading →
