It’s almost as if last year didn’t even exist. How is it Fall, again? I sit here in my living room warmed by a fire that I made, somehow feeling like I’m waiting for someone to get home. But no one is coming. I’m alone. I feel utterly blocked and more confused than ever right …
Sometimes it just seems easier to complain about all the shit that’s going on in our lives than to actually step back, acknowledge that we are responsible for our current reality -based on the choices we’ve made in our past, accept our faults, learn from our mistakes, and work hard every day at becoming a …
I LOVED this quick TedTalk by Sarah Knight, author of The Life-Changing Magic of Not Giving a F*ck on mental decluttering, learning how to say no without feeling guilty, setting boundaries, and giving fewer f*cks using honesty and politeness.

My husband showed up unexpectedly last Tuesday and hijacked my day physically and hijacked my week emotionally.
