The Adventures of a 40-something-year-old With No Clue Or Direction
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 →
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 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 →
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 →
Every Saturday Aria has basketball practice or a game, so that takes up most of our morning. But last Saturday was a very busy day for these Texas Alexanders. Besides our morning basketball routine, Texas Tech Athletics held a kid's sports clinic at their basketball complex. It was held in celebration of National Girls &... Continue Reading →
This past Tuesday I turned 43 years old, y’all! And it was the BEST DAY EVER! For starters, we got to have a snow day around here. That meant I got to take it easy and hang out with my little familia all day! Aria woke up way too early because she was excited to... Continue Reading →
On my way to the breakroom to fill up my water cup, I passed by a coworker waiting for the elevator: Me: Good morning! Him: Good morning! How are you doing today? Me: I'm doing good. How about you? Him: I'm doing fabulous, but not as fabulous as you. You've got the fabulous outfit. You're... Continue Reading →
There are times when I tell people, "You should do this," "You need this in your life," "I did this and my life totally changed." Am I judging? No. Hell, I'm total Hot Mess Express over here. Don't forget that. I don't say things because I think I'm better than a person or I've got... Continue Reading →
Last year right about this time, I was broken. I lost who I thought I was. I lost my muchness. I allowed others to dull my shine because I was looking for validation. I started 2022 just trying to keep my head above the water and it ended up being a year of survival. Seriously,... Continue Reading →
