I haven’t been too vocal about being furloughed for six months, unfortunately due to feeling humiliated and embarrassed, as well as having bitterness to the entire situation. I returned to work at the beginning of this month and it’s been quite the adjustment. I learned to reframe my mindset after having a strict schedule of … Continue reading Laying Off My Furlough

2020’s Best Books…In My Opinion
This year, I set a goal of reading two books a month, or 24 total books for the year and I did it!

One plus side of my six month furlough was that I had … Continue reading 2020’s Best Books…In My Opinion
A Much Needed Revival
I traveled an absurd amount over the past week. From catching a red-eye to the West (best) Coast to a red-eye two days later home AND then a 10-hour drive to Texas the same day, I realized how easy it is to be tired. Yes, that’s a real sentence.

Obviously they’ve been there for all of the little moments leading up to explosions, but there’s been something pulling at my heart on sharing why I ended best friendship and what the result has been. I remember … Continue reading When to End It
I Now Do Work I Love
“I now do work I love & I am well paid for it” Okay, now that I have stability in my life again, I’m going to get really real with you. I went without a job for four very long months. This wasn’t by choice...I was promised a role with the company I was working … Continue reading I Now Do Work I Love
Eye See You
It’s pretty obvious that the past year has been a little stressful and tiring for me, and I’m so grateful that you all put up with me! Haha. Between graduating, traveling, moving and starting a big-girl job, I’ve come to learn something really important that no one taught me in all 21-years of education. … Continue reading Eye See You
