{via unsplash.com} Oh hey, it’s 2019. In all honesty, I haven’t had the mental space to wrap my head around yet another ‘new year’. It surprises me, every time, that it just was Christmas and bam, another year is gone.While I usually look forward to the time between Christmas and...

11: Letters to the universe

November 11, 2017

Last year, I jumped on the bandwagon and posted these little snippets to the universe. Don’t we all just have to put something out there sometimes?

Whew. September flew by in the blink of an eye, and here we are in October. This officially feels like the first month of fall (although we’re still enjoying some pretty warm temperatures over here). Part of me doesn’t want to let a great summer go, but part of me...

July 3, 2017

BAM. It’s July. Are you ready for this? Summer is here in full force and we’ve already battled the first heatwave a couple of weeks ago with temperatures up to 107°F/43°C. Ugh. Not my personal favorite, I hope the rest of the summer (mainly July and August) will be a...
