I am, first and foremost, a mother. My daughter is my highest priority. I devote myself to caring for her, teaching her new things, providing new experiences and opportunities, and giving her an understanding of what love really is. I hope that I can keep her safe, healthy, and happy. I am a wife. I chose to spend the rest… Read more →

Grandma With a Potty Mouth
I love my grandma. She is so quirky, and she isn’t like one of those cliche grandmas that always try to feed you cookies and knit you ugly sweaters. She is a healthy nut, actually. When we go over for dinner, we have whole wheat bread, veggies, and lean meats. She doesn’t like to give us junk, and she will… Read more →
I Would Make a Good Therapist :)
In my life I have always been told that I’m a good listener. I always like to be that friend that you can come to with your problems. I also tend to wait to be asked for advice because I know that sometimes people just need to vent about their problems. But, when I do give advice, I try to… Read more →
Cheater, Cheater, Pumpkin Eater
In any relationship, cheating is an awful thing. Not only does it show your partner that you aren’t really invested in the relationship, it breaks any chance you might have at trust in the future. It makes your partner feel like they aren’t good enough, and sometimes they’ll even blame themselves, thinking that they pushed you to cheat somehow. But… Read more →
Ugly on the Inside
There are some people out there who are absolutely gorgeous. They have the best hair, the nicest smile, and they radiate beauty. But, some of the people negate all of those good looks because of the person who they are on the inside. Personality traits and tendencies have a huge impact on how you’re perceived. You can be the most… Read more →
Daily Gratitude List 9/30/14
My mom once told me about this idea that, to make yourself feel happier in your everyday life, you should take the time to list five things, every single day, that you’re thankful for. You don’t have to write it if you don’t want to, but you should at least take the time to think through it. I think she… Read more →
Pet Peeve: Unsupervised Children
One of the most annoying parenting habits, in my opinion, is leaving children unattended or unsupervised in public places. For instance, I take my daughter to a playground at the mall, and we have a lot of fun. But, I only go during school hours. This is because so often, during later hours or during summer vacation, parents bring their… Read more →
Yesterday…
I posted yesterday about how my day was going pretty slow. However, I did manage to get quite a bit done. I finished two loads of laundry, cleaned the kitchen, picked up and vacuumed the living room, and managed to get a little writing done. I wish I had done more writing, but I can’t really go back in time… Read more →
Hump Day Dump Day
On my local radio station, there is a morning show with John J. and Rich. They are actually really funny, and they have several segments where they like to get involved in various peoples’ relationships. On Wednesdays, their segment is called “Hump Day Dump Day.” Basically, they have an individual call in to give their story. For these shows, a… Read more →
Sleep: Too Much or Too Little?
It always seems like you can never get “just enough” sleep. You always feel like you’ve gotten too much or too little. Or, at least, that’s how it is for me. In my past, I would have preferred too much sleep. As a teenager, especially, I would easily get 10-11 hours on weekends and such, and I would be unconscious… Read more →
