The Adventures of a 40-something-year-old With No Clue Or Direction
Yesterday was my first day of grad school. Okay, so I’m only taking one class, but still it’s a big deal for me. Just one class of anything takes a lot! Let alone grad school. You’re becoming a master in something. Besides, working full-time and having a family is already a full schedule. And lately,... Continue Reading →
Dear Santa, All I want for Christmas is my bills paid. And about a week’s worth of sleep. And one of those cool Blvck notebooks that are way too expensive, but oh so cool! I’m so tired y’all. I had the bright idea to work at my local Santa Land. Making $50 a night to... Continue Reading →
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 →
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 →
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 →
I find myself in a place in my life where I'm such a mom. My life revolves around my husband, daughter, and work. I find myself always compromising on everything. I don't go to girly or scary movies because Husband doesn't like those. If we go to restaurants, it has to be something of Husband... Continue Reading →
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 →
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 →
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 →
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 →
