• Sometimes…

    I think I’m actually losing my mind. Every time feels like THIS will be THE time. And then it isn’t. Until next time. Knowing that is coming is something always lingering in the background. The car crash that you can’t quite stop. Slow motion. It used to be harder. I couldn’t understand why I was…

    I wish…

    I wish I could make it all stop. I wish I could sit and watch them frozen in time so I could memorize this version of each & every one of them. I wish I could remember the way their faces crumble with tears & the way their faces light up in delight. I wish…

  • I find it interesting that the days that I actually make time to write here are the days that my card is charged for the domain. Maybe it makes me feel guilty. Maybe it’s just the right time. Maybe it’s just a reminder. I don’t know. I do know… that I’m tired. And it’s the…

  • Nothing changes if nothing changes…

    This last week has been WILD to say the very least. But, we survived!! Woot woot! What I read/created: I’m going to be honest, February started off as a really slow reading month. I couldn’t get my brain to slow down. Instead of reading, I spent most of the time rearranging the house. I organized…

  • Oh…. Time has apparently flown…

    I swore I would do better and post more on here but… that was a lie. Maybe not a lie because it wasn’t intentional. But, time got away from me yet again. A big part of it is because I open the window to write a new blog post and then I sit there and…

  • New Year, New Me?

    New Year, New Me?

    ,

    No. It’s actually just a Thursday. Okay… maybe not JUST a Thursday, but… I don’t think we need an entirely new me. But, since the year is ending and a new one is starting, maybe I can do something with all of the reflecting I’ve been doing lately. First, I waaaayy surpassed my original reading…

    I’m not even sure. I’m gonna be honest. I started this website with the hopes of it being a blog. I wanted to share all of the thoughts in my head and see if maybe I wasn’t so alone. But, now every time I stare at the keyboard, I’m wondering what I even have to…

  • Now What?

    I was 19 when I got pregnant with my first child. I gave birth 2 months after my 20th birthday. People warned me then that I’d probably lose my friends from before because my life was set to change. While my friends were out partying, I was changing diapers. Some tried to stay close, others…

  • Love & Other Tragedies…

    Today is release day for Sophie Bernbaum’s second YA novel, Love & Other Tragedies. Love & Other Tragedies follows Rose through her senior year of high school. While navigating college applications, senior traditions, and nailing all her theater performances, her best friend’s brother finally notices her. If that wasn’t enough, Rose is also faced with…

  • Starting From Scratch…

    Starting From Scratch…

    Getting started is always the hardest part. After that I think it’s finishing it.. but maybe that’s an issue we will tackle another day. First one foot in front of the other, right? That’s what I tell myself at least. So, that is what I am currently attempting to do. Just start. Because then at…
