Twelve months ago, I was sitting at a desk just next to this one, also burning the midnight oil at work.  That night I decided I was just going to take a leap of faith, and start something that I had been thinking about for a long time.  This blog.  I titled that first post... Continue Reading →

It all started when I said I would work overtime...again.  I don't know why I KEEP forgetting that I am really not about the overtime life.  Coming in on a day off, losing precious  time that I could be doing so many better things, I just don't like it.  Some people at work love the...

Once upon a million years ago, my family was having a barbeque in the back yard. There was a patio cover over half the yard where the grill is and a picnic table my Daddy built I think before I was born; while the rest of the yard was open and there was a kiddie... Continue Reading →

Does anyone else have a person in their lives that, for what ever reason always uses phrases that make you go..huh?  Either its a saying that you just aren't that familiar with, or maybe one that is a little out dated, and makes you wonder what it even means.  For me that person was always...

Something that I remember about growing up, is that reading was always greatly encouraged.  There was a bookcase taking up a whole wall in the back of the living room, and to reach some of the books, you had to use a chair.  We had all sorts of books, encyclopedias, set of books about the...

I cant really remember when it happened.  I know it has been more than a year or so now.  There must have just been a moment where all was right in the world and something shifted.  I don't have that many memories from my childhood of them, and I was not always so fixated.  It...

It is quite accurate that all the world is a stage.  I hope that y'all recognize this quote from a Shakespeare play.  In the last couple of weeks, this was something resonating with me while thinking about some things that I was looking forward to.  Granted I have always had a flair for the dramatics,...

Once upon a two months ago, I injured the poor Doozer Mobile in the parking lot of my apartment complex.  Somehow it became quite-complex to get her fixed.  Between two Ford Dealerships, my insurance company, and several phone calls, I was finally able to drop off my beloved car and get transported to a rental...

When I returned to the great state of Florida weeks ago, I came home to a totally empty fridge.  I was excited to get to the grocery store and fill it up with some yummy and healthy options.  So excited in fact, that I backed out of my parking spot a little too quickly.  You see it...

When I arrived at the airport in Philadelphia this time, I did not even know what to expect.  I knew the weather was clear that day, and I had gotten texts from the air line telling me that the flight was still on schedule, but you just never know it seems.  Still, I hugged my...

Just as there were things about my childhood home that I found to be very different, there were also many things the same. The smell of my Daddy's records, the way that music seemed to make cleaning the dishes after dinner not as tedious a task, and the way that no matter what -I belong... Continue Reading →

It has been an eternity since I have written a new post, and while I have meant to the time just did not present itself.  I was super sick, to the point where delirium kicked in and I thought I had sneezed glitter.  I also watched the same movie three times just so that I... Continue Reading →
