I was going through my past blogs, I do that sometimes, and stumbled on my 2020 bucket list. I thought it would be fun to go through it again and see what was accomplished and what wasn't. I had 22 items on my list, let's see here... 1. My main item for 2020 was to... Continue Reading →
Blogmas 2020: day 17
Hurray! This is the first time in at least a week I haven't been forced to stay up til midnight for the sake of the elf. 😅 One thing that is difficult during the holiday season, at least for me, is trying to remain consistent with weight loss. I started the keto lifestyle, 2 years... Continue Reading →
Something Is Missing
Hold on a second while I gather my thoughts... I apologize in advance if this is jumpy, but I just feel compelled to write this out. For the last 2 weeks, consistently, I have felt a sense of urgency. Like there is something missing in my life. It used to be this feeling when I... Continue Reading →
Mental Health Update
A couple months ago I received an email saying that my primary care provider was no longer going to be in practice this Summer.

SPEND TIME WITH LOVED ONES I didn't get any pictures today so my story telling will have to do. I woke up early this morning (weekends... Continue Reading →
I Am Not Ashamed

31 Days of Halloween: Day 17
One, two, skip a few... I can't believe this month is halfway over already! Fall is finally hanging around here in Nebraska. The leaves are taking over the yard in pretty red, yellow, and green tones. It is roughly 53 degrees and I am loving it! Part of the Fall season that gets me excited... Continue Reading →
TGIF
Hurray it is Friday! I am even more excited because with the holiday last week, my husband's weekend was cut short to make up for it. If you don't know already, he is a trash man (major holidays off, but works the following Saturday). It tends to throw me off kilter. We make it through... Continue Reading →
What The Heck Is Happening!?
This morning I woke up to my almost 5 year old screaming. It was the kind of moment when you are not sure if you are hearing things/dreaming or not so you wait to see if you hear it again. It was maybe 2 to 3 minutes before I heard him again. "I NEED YOU... Continue Reading →
