Let Us All Give Thanks to Our Grey Sweatshirt
If you look at almost any picture of me from high school, I am wearing a grey hooded sweatshirt. It was nothing special. Just a plain, thin, cotton hoodie that was probably from Target, and did absolutely nothing for my figure or for fashion. But somehow, for some reason, I wore it every. single. day.… Continue reading

200 Day Time Capsule Blog #6

This past weekend we celebrated my grandpa’s 91st birthday. It was a happy day filled with good food, lots of sunshine, and a big reminder of the many good things (and especially good people) I have in my life.

Find the Things that Fill You Up
At the beginning of the year I set out on a quest to find a morning routine. And while that process has been and might forever remain a process, I have recently found myself in need of an afternoon routine as well. Seeing as many things are still closed and many activities are still limited,… Continue reading
