If you forget all that 2020 brought, you’ll live life at a complete LOSS. And I mean more of a loss than all of 2020 brought the world itself.

Full Circle
It was Friday, April 10, 2009. Good Friday. I was a mere freshman in high school and sitting through my last day of classes before a week off — spring break! When suddenly my day was interrupted by a call to the office and a drive home from dad. That entire afternoon, evening, and allContinue reading “Full Circle”
Dear Class of 2020
You know, I keep seeing things about the class of 2020 grads… 🎓 they’re probably going to miss their graduations due to this pandemic, and I even read that some of them who already had jobs lined up after graduation are having them rescinded 😳⠀⠀Now, if that were me I’d be PISSED. But guess what?⠀⠀EverybodyContinue reading “Dear Class of 2020”
#StayHome
Okay so there’s a lot happening in the world right now.⠀⠀We’re all stuck at home (or should be).⠀⠀As someone who didn’t really venture out much on weekends lately anyway, I’m cool with it; it’s not as much of a struggle for me.⠀⠀I know how to be alone and am okay with it. But I knowContinue reading “#StayHome”
Millennials and COVID-19
So I heard on the news this morning, not once, but TWICE, that Millennials are the ones who are key to slowing the spread of the coronavirus. If you’re asking who exactly that is, well that’s anyone born in the years 1981-1996 (give or take). As a Millennial myself, of course I have an opinionContinue reading “Millennials and COVID-19”
Strength
After my mom died from ovarian cancer, I can’t tell you how many times I heard the phrases “you’re so strong” and ”I don’t know how you do it.” 🗯⠀⠀Well the truth is, I didn’t have a choice! And if you’ve ever been through any type of loss, girlfriend (or boyyyy) you know what I’m talkingContinue reading “Strength”
I see it. I like it. I want it. I got it.
Last year when I turned 25 I said my mantra for the year would be (in the words of Ariana Grande)… “𝙞 𝙨𝙚𝙚 𝙞𝙩. 𝙞 𝙡𝙞𝙠𝙚 𝙞𝙩. 𝙞 𝙬𝙖𝙣𝙩 𝙞𝙩. 𝙞 𝙜𝙤𝙩 𝙞𝙩.” And that’s exactly what I did. I put my focus on what I reallyyyy wanted to accomplish and was going to take controlContinue reading “I see it. I like it. I want it. I got it.”
Forgiveness
Forgiveness is a powerful thing.⠀⠀It takes great effort and strength to let go of all of that hurt and anger someone caused you. 😤⠀⠀I can forgive, but I’ll NEVER forget.⠀⠀Which is why this quote is exactly right.⠀⠀I’ve forgiven people who have hurt me in the past. I’m at peace, and learned to live my lifeContinue reading “Forgiveness”
Thank You Eli
I didn’t wear his jersey often, but Eli Manning was always a constant in my world growing up.⠀⠀As a die-hard Giants fan, Eli is basically all I ever knew.⠀⠀As much as he got me frustrated when he made mistakes or threw interceptions, I knew we could ALWAYS count on him under pressure.⠀⠀Under a minute leftContinue reading “Thank You Eli”
Where All My Dog Lovers At?
This little guy moved alllll the way to Colorado a few weeks ago.⠀⠀He was my first “cousin” on my mom’s side of the family.⠀⠀He’s been in the fam for well over 10 years now, and he’s my bud. 🥰⠀⠀I swear dogs know when there’s something wrong with you.⠀⠀I’ll always remember this moment when he wasContinue reading “Where All My Dog Lovers At?”
