At this moment in time life is steady and almost routine. I'm not complaining at all about that because I think there's comfort in routine. I've been working and enjoying time off from being a football mom. But kind of looking forward to the excitement of our next football season as crazy as that sounds.… Continue reading January

My sunshine… on a rainy day turns 6.
I'm trying to take notice of all of the beautiful moments that come while parenting. Even if they're only momentary breaks in the middle of a storm...
The slow down
So we're in month million of Covid -19... the boys are back home. We've found our groove again and I turned 38 yesterday. I've been working on my patio thanks to the Black Women who Love Outdoor Living Spaces group on Facebook. I've been doing home projects thanks to Black Women who love interior design… Continue reading The slow down
Since the world has shut down
I'm finally ready to write about the Coronavirus. It's been on my mind since things got crazy but my mind was too hectic to express my feelings through words. I've been going through the necessary motions and to be honest I've been mostly scared out of my mind. My girlfriends and I went to Mardi… Continue reading Since the world has shut down

Switching jobs, doing a little dating and celebrating anniversaries… been busy.
Work... I found out about two months ago that my job was going to be moving me to another position. It was a semi lateral move due to a change the company is going through but according to everyone I work with this was going to be the best move for me. My nerves were… Continue reading Switching jobs, doing a little dating and celebrating anniversaries… been busy.
My life…
My house has been a mess for two weeks. My boys need haircuts. My dog needs to go to the groomer. I need to clean out my closet and install a shower curtain rod (that I bought a month ago). My dishwasher is clogged and I'm going to have to pay someone to come out… Continue reading My life…
Happy New Year #2018
When the clock struck midnight this year I was laughing... LAUGHING. Who'da thunk it? I have cried my way into the New Year every single year since B died. There's something sad about starting another year... by yourself. Going into yet another year without a loved one. I remember when I could tell you the… Continue reading Happy New Year #2018
Christmas Tradition
Yesterday was Christmas. I decided 3 years ago that the boys and I would stop traveling for Christmas. When B was alive we tried super hard to appease both sides of the family. We'd pack everything up and drive to Austin for Christmas eve, spend the night and get up early and head back to… Continue reading Christmas Tradition
