Dear Nanni, I'm already tearing up typing this because it's been just over eight years since I've seen you. It feels like it's been much longer than eight years though. So much has happened since you left us. You know by now that Poppy and (great) uncle Steve have left us as well. And Darcy … Continue reading It’s been eight years since I’ve seen you…
Contentment (A Grateful Heart)
Good morning everyone! I hope you're day is going great so far, I know mine is. I've already gotten a few things done around the house (including organizing my closet because it was a wreck!) and I'm still going. It's not even noon yet! I'm taking today to be grateful for the simple things in … Continue reading Contentment (A Grateful Heart)
Periscope Bug!
I finally took the plunge the other day and finally did a broadcast on Periscope. I was actually quite nervous for my first one - an intro for the Bloggers Get Social #stopdropscope prompt as a part of their Instagram challenge. I mean, I've done videos before for YouTube on a regular basis, but there … Continue reading Periscope Bug!
Friday Five: Blogger Love v.37
Good morning everyone! I hope your Friday is being good to you. Mine's going well so far, I've actually gotten a lot done... and it's not even noon yet! I wish I had been like this yesterday, but I was a mess. My mood fluctuated so much yesterday that I couldn't even keep up with … Continue reading Friday Five: Blogger Love v.37
One Thing I Don’t Regret
Even though we try to avoid them, we can't help but to have a few regrets in life. Maybe they're minor - that compliment you wish you said aloud - or they can be major regrets - not spending enough time with a special person. We even find ourselves regretting things we had no control … Continue reading One Thing I Don’t Regret
Slang Words I’ll Never Use
Slang words have been around as long as language itself. Well, I'm not positive on that, but I'd assume it's true. We're always coming up with new words to use in our everyday language, so much so that they do eventually end up in a dictionary. Seriously... selfie is now an official word in the … Continue reading Slang Words I’ll Never Use
Friday Five: Blogger Love v.36
Happy Friday everyone! I hope you're all prepared for tomorrow... I know we still have to get our candy for the neighborhood kids because for the first time four years we're able to give out candy again. Why four years? Well, October 2011 we had the infamous Franken-storm that basically cancelled Halloween, and the following … Continue reading Friday Five: Blogger Love v.36
Confession Session {4th edition}
You ever have one of those days where you have a plan and then, BOOM, it all just gets obliterated for no apparent reason? Yeah, that happened to me today... and yesterday. Maybe I should just stop planning to do things and just go with the flow. Eh, maybe not. Anyway, I had the urge … Continue reading Confession Session {4th edition}
Danger Zone
Have you ever watched a football game and noticed how many times the players knock over or nearly knock over the people on the sidelines? I'm not just talking about their coaches and burly teammates, but the sideline refs, water & equipment boys, security men and more importantly... the media crews. Yes, the media crews … Continue reading Danger Zone
7 Struggles of Being an Introvert
Lately it seems like I've seen many links on Facebook sharing to articles about what it is to be an introverted individual. I always end up checking out the article and agreeing with a good portion, if not all, of what they have to say about introverts. I am one, I would know. I actually … Continue reading 7 Struggles of Being an Introvert
Friday Five: Blogger Love v.35
It's cliché to say this, but another week is gone! Crazy, right? There's just a little over two months left of 2015 and I still think 2009 was two years ago. My week was a little weirder than usual. I just felt like things were a little out of whack each day and my routines … Continue reading Friday Five: Blogger Love v.35
Making the Most of Free Time
Free time probably seems like a foreign concept to many people. Between having a job, going to school and taking care of a family, what adult has free time? Well, recent college graduates, for one. Maybe not all of them, but we cannot ignore the fact that finding a job after college can be rough. … Continue reading Making the Most of Free Time

I was going to start spacing these out and only do them every few months, but I really just like sharing what I've been up to each month. Sometimes things change dramatically and sometimes they don't, but you never know unless someone tells you, right? So here's what I've been up to this month. Loving … Continue reading currently // october
