It’s been a trying couple of days. Growing up, my views of marriage have always been picture book happy ending type shit. They lived happily ever after, all was right with the world, and every day was a romantic movie type of thing. Then I grew up and got married myself. Don’t get me wrong; … Continue reading Here We Go Again
Month: May 2019
Little by Little
I am one month closer to knocking a few things off my 30 Before 30 list. While I have almost 6 months to the day before my deadline is up, I feel confident that I will get at least a majority of my goals complete before November 30th. I have recently started watching Supernatural from … Continue reading Little by Little
Today’s a Rough Day
Actually, it shouldn’t be a rough day. It started off great. Fell asleep at a decent hour last night, woke up around 10 this morning, went and got Bret and me some lunch at 11, and watched a movie on Netflix. And then, almost as if my anxiety was on a timer, everything went to … Continue reading Today’s a Rough Day
Flea Market Shenanigans
Bret and I walked around the flea market for a couple hours this morning. Compared to past years, this one seems a bit smaller than usual. What would usually take 4+ hours to go through and look at everything, it only took us shy of 2 hours. Regardless, we found some exciting things and left … Continue reading Flea Market Shenanigans
The Fleas Be Upon Us
If you have noticed, at the bottom of my page, there are two countdown widgets. One is for my 2nd wedding anniversary, and the other is a countdown titled, “Hillsville’s Memorial Day Flea Market.” What the heck is that? You might ask. Well, I’ll be posting more about it this weekend, but I’ll give you … Continue reading The Fleas Be Upon Us
Tunesday Tuesday: Summer Vibes
As we inch closer and closer to June 21st, the days are getting longer and in general much warmer (sorry, Colorado, not the case for you this week). There’s nothing more summer in the south-western part of Virginia than to take off to the river with your best friends, some inner tubes and one killer … Continue reading Tunesday Tuesday: Summer Vibes
Marriage Mondays
There’s no such thing as a perfect marriage. Especially between my husband and me. For the majority, we get along wonderfully; we pick at each other, help each other, and regardless, we’re 100% supportive of what we do. Okay, more like 84.9% supportive. In almost 2 years of marriage and 1 year of being together … Continue reading Marriage Mondays
Lazy Sundays
Ah, sleep. It's the favorite past time of Sundays. Most of the time it's a quick nap after church, your stomach full of that large lunch you took upon yourself to shuffle down. Maybe it's from watching that ongoing NASCAR race, or the dull roar of that football game on in the background. Mine comes … Continue reading Lazy Sundays
An Open Letter to My Anxiety
Here we go again. Same scenarios, different day. It's that tiny voice in my head that has to be the Debbie-downer of literally everything in my mind. You’re that part of my subconscious that puts doubt when things are actually going great in my life. You’re the part of me that says you’re not worthy … Continue reading An Open Letter to My Anxiety
