(A letter to the year that I thought would break me…) You were not what I expected. I realized that I didn’t want you. As the year progressed, you did not meet my expectations. You brought me pain. You brought heartache. You brought death. You brought tauma. You brought unspeakable disaster. You brought pandemic. You…

Blogmas 2020: My Santa Letter
So, When I saw this prompt for Blogmas, I thought “this is kid’s stuff. Why would I write a letter to Santa?” But then, the more I thought about it, the more I realized it could be kind of fun to write Santa. I haven’t written a letter to “Santa” in quite a while. So,…

My 2020 Word
I’ve seen several posts on Instagram or Twitter asking, “what is your one word for 2020?” I believe this has now taken place of your once dedicated resolutions. People aren’t setting resolutions, they are putting one word into the universe and moving towards living by that word. I decided to try that this year; instead…
2020 Book Predictions
Typically, I give myself this lofty goal of reading however many books I can in one year. Well, in recent years; between blogging, writing my own books, scrolling aimlessly through social media and having a toxic job, 2019 wasn’t the best year for finishing ANY book I started. Trash, I know. But I will be…
