  • day 832794238 of #pandemic2020

    Okay, I’m being a little dramatic. It’s actually only day 11 but who’s counting? Everyone. Everyone is counting. During this social distancing, stay inside order, quarantine; whatever you want to call it, I’ve really been inside my head. Like more than usual.

  • Just another ordinary day…

    It’s been six years since my mommy died. Actually, it’s been six years today that my mommy died. Somewhere around 3:15 pm to be exact. Every year I post a picture or two or more of my beautiful mommy on social media and say, “Six years ago today, I lost my beautiful mommy.” It seems…
