This month, I turned another year awesome (never older, just awesome.) What does it mean to be 39 years old? To be honest, I have no idea. Most people my age, are married, divorced, shacked up, whatever. Some are with kids, some without. Some are drowning themselves in booze, pills, porn, whatever that “happiness” fix is for them. But for me…39 is just a number. … Continue reading Comfortable In My Skin
This picture is how I feel about life in general right now.
FUCK EVERYTHING AND BECOME A PIRATE.
That was on the back of a menu at a fabulous bar/restaurant in Bondi in Australia and I for the life of me cannot remember the name of the bar/restaurant but I also took the other photo below there too because 1) the served Sailor Jerry Rum 2) who doesn’t like tequila when they’re getting their festive on and 3) it says Merry Fuckin Christmas.
The only way that message would have been topped was if it had said: Merry Fuckin Christmas Y’all. Continue reading Fuck Everything & Become a Pirate
When my oldest niece, Riley, was born, I decided to try and be the most positive and supportive person for her. I wanted and want her to grow and know that there is no limit on what she can do or what she can dream about. My sis says she (Riley) and her baby sister (Taylor) have old souls and it’s the truth. The wisdom … Continue reading You Do Make a Difference
This is the last day of the 21 Day Grateful Challenge. If you’re just reading this, every day I had to find 3 things to be grateful for and it’s odd what I found to be grateful, but it truly showed me that sometimes the little things are the most important things. #1 Fridays – I know everyone is grateful when the weekend roles around … Continue reading Grateful – Day 21
#1 I’m a night owl. I like staying up late. I get a lot of stuff done in the wee hours. It makes for a terrible morning person but today I got up early (a miracle) and went on a two mile walk with the furballs and did yoga. I felt like a ninja all day. I’m grateful I got up. I think I may … Continue reading Grateful – Day 20
#1 My roommate, Melany. She’s the one that normally cooks and dusts and I am the one that does the mops and does the yard work. We’re not forced into these jobs, we both like to do them and it works for us as roommates. She’s been under the weather all week but sent me a text that said, “I feel bad I haven’t cooked all week” … Continue reading Grateful – Day 19
#1 That photo is one of my favorite moments of my day. Every day, I sit on the couch before I go to work and have a zen moment with the dogs. My roommates dogs Gypsy and Max are on either side and my dog, Nick, on my lap and every day, he does this. My dad summed it up best, “It’s amazing how much love … Continue reading Grateful – Day 18
#1 It was a beautiful fall day today and I was very grateful that I got to enjoy it with the doors open at work and in solitude. It was a quiet day in the office. Not a lot of phone calls or emails. I was able to just catch up and file away things. I know it’s weird to be grateful for that but … Continue reading Grateful – Day 17
#1 Walking the dog – it’s exercise for me and the dog of course but it’s also a moment that I get to share with Mother Nature and the Universe #2 Impromptu visits from friends – Sometimes the Universe just grants you an afternoon of much needed laughter and blowing off steam. You might not need it but maybe your friends do. #3 Making new … Continue reading Grateful – Day 16
For October 4th – I’m late on hitting publish for this post. I got sucked into a 4 hour marathon of Halloween Wars on Food Network. Who knew that pumpkin carving, sugar molding, and cake creating could consume my attention. #1 Childhood snacks. I didn’t know they made pumpkin flavored marshmallows until today and damn do they make tasty rice krispy treats. #2 Gardenias – the … Continue reading Grateful – Day 15
