“Don’t change, I like you just the way you are.” Please don’t tell me I was the only child exposed to this dad-joke classic. You know the one I’m talking about; the one where you agree to run an errand or do some chore with your dad and you “just need to change real quick.”Continue reading “Don’t change, I like you just the way you are.”

May 28th, 2022
We did it. It was somehow the fastest day, with the most frozen-in-time and memorable snapshot moments. I think we both were blessed to go into the day with absolute confidence in our hearts and in our forever. We were also advised to enjoy the day, because it would go by so, so quickly. AndContinue reading “May 28th, 2022”
She is beauty, she is grace, she just fell flat on her face
Anyone else feel lied to? I feel like the whole human existence is kind of a big, fat lie. I know.. dramatic. But hear me out: I remember as a child thinking that the kids in high school were so cool. They “just had their life together.” They were going to college and they wereContinue reading “She is beauty, she is grace, she just fell flat on her face”
I’m not going to be sad tomorrow.
Happy St. Patrick’s Day Eve. More importantly, happy March 16th. March 16th is the day before March 17th and March 17th is a really, really special day. March 17th is Star’s birthday.. and Star is my horse. Or.. she was. As you may remember, she’s dead now. Dead as a door nail – 100 poundsContinue reading “I’m not going to be sad tomorrow.”
1-800-Got-Junk: the best business model
Any one else guilty of following the 1-800-Got-Junk people around their house screaming “PURGE, PURGE, PURGGEEE?!” No, just me? It’s cool. Today is one of my favorite days of the year. IT IS JUNK PURGING DAY, BAYBAY. First, if you’re not familiar with the 1-800-Got-Junk business model, let me enlighten you with what I considerContinue reading “1-800-Got-Junk: the best business model”
A lawyer: 3 years later
Facebook memories have a way of building you up, tearing you down, or just plain kicking your ass. Or sometimes, they just…really, really age you. Facebook reminded me the other day that it’s been 3 years, THREE YEARS, since I was sworn into the Missouri bar. While it was one of my life highlights, andContinue reading “A lawyer: 3 years later”
Sunshine and Rainbows
I wish I could say that life has been sunshine and rainbows since my last post (which was kind of a bummer- sorry about that btw), but alas, THAT WOULD BE A LIE. My dog has tried dying on me, twice, in the last week. No seriously, turns out her “kennel cough” symptoms were actuallyContinue reading “Sunshine and Rainbows”
heaviness
Everything is heavy right now. The world is just heavy. You can’t turn on the tv, or scroll through Facebook, without being reminded of that absolute terror and shambles half our world is stuck in. I mean honestly, it’s a constant stream of vaccination debates/booster debates, a seemingly never-ending list of virus variants, the contentiousContinue reading “heaviness”
It’s easier to have a BADitude.
There. I said it. It’s easier to have a bad attitude than a good one – a baditude if you will. (I did not coin this, I have no idea who did, but if it was you, consider this your personal shout out). Sometimes, I have a baditude. I’m happy, but my attitude can stillContinue reading “It’s easier to have a BADitude.”
100 pounds of ashes
Trigger warning: this blog post will discuss the death of my horse, Star. It is not my intention to make it, or you, sad, but I also do not want to mislead you – she is still, in fact, dead. Even at the end of the story. 🤷🏻♀️ no amount of glue, prayer, or drunkContinue reading “100 pounds of ashes”
