Toxicity vs. Vulnerability: Which One Was It?

Well, Twitter was an interesting place to be the other day….lol. Social media as a whole has been….difficult to say the least lately. These days, I am more or less trying to stay current, even though most of the news I’m seeing is either numbing, disappointing or basically bringing me to tears. Just the other…

The Sun Does Shine

I’ve never shed a tear reading a book. I’ve laughed, ive smirked, I’ve cussed; never teared up or cried. This book made me tear up. Right at the part where he started to want to give up (when his mother passed), when his constant please went unanswered for years, and later denied without sometimes even…

#PlantLife

So, I’m a #PlantMom now? 🤔☺️ The quarantine has brought on some new journeys for me; and one of them has become plants, and growing different herbs and veggies! It all sort of started with my daughters Earth day project. You know when your kid gets the seed and they plant it and watch it…

My daughter is 6, and despite her being so young, she is well aware…

WTIO Bucket List

It’s happening. I’m going crazy in quarantine. Although things are starting to open up in phases, I can’t help but realize that a full opening of the world and the ability to do the things you once loved to do without worry may be far-fetched right now. Now that I’ve had all this spare time,…

A Moment of Peace Amidst All the Chaos

Something about a full moon always puts me in a calm and peaceful moon. Tonight, I finally got to get a good photograph of the full moon. I’m not professional photographer, but I think I did pretty good. There’s a little editing on it as well; courtesy of VSCO. I hope everyone can find a…
