Once upon a time there lived a differently abled thirty-something trying to maneuver dating, friendships, travel, and the world. This is her story...
It’s safe to say that these last few months have been the worst mental health months I’ve had in a long time. Even worse than during the worst of COVID (who thought that could be possible?). Life has a way of not turning out the way you expected or hoped. It doesn’t mean there aren’t … More On Challenges
Over the past year, during lockdown and staying home, I had plenty of time on my hands. I watched every show imaginable. Streamed every movie. I slept. I drank a lot of wine. I took a free online class to learn about Hinduism. But what I didn’t do was write. The amount of times I … More On Writing
I’ve been going out and gradually doing more lately and as I’ve done that, I’ve noticed something…there’s an overall sense of kindness and niceness that people seem to have. I noticed it at Starbucks and then Trader Joes and as a prime example, I went to Costco today where pre-COVID, people would run you over … More On Life After the Vaccine, Vol. 4
Sunset Stock photos by Vecteezy There have been a lot of changes in my life this past year, especially considering I spent so much of it indoors. I moved out of the place I lived for 12 years and back in with my parents. COVID sucked but being able to live with them and spend … More On Life After the Vaccine, Vol. 3
A year doesn’t usually feel like a very time. Normally it feels only like a blip or a blur in the grand scheme of things. But I think it’s safe to say most of us felt like 2020-2021 was a decade packed into one year. In some ways it went by much faster than I … More On Life After the Vaccine, Vol. 2
I’ve only gotten my 1st vaccine shot and still have one more to go, but as I get closer to being able to return to some kind of normal — or at least a new normal — I wanted to start documenting some of the change. This past year has been so filled with anger, … More On Life After the Vaccine, Vol. 1
One year ago from Friday, I walked into my beautiful office for what I didn’t know would be the last time for a very very long time. I drove to work that day with a giant pit in my stomach. I wasn’t sure what this COVID thing really was yet but I had a feeling … More On This Day, 2020
I’m gonna be honest (cause that’s a thing I do here), Joe Biden was about my 5th choice for president. He wasn’t progressive enough for me. The accusations of sexual harassment didn’t sit well with me. No matter if they were true or not, I’ve always made the choice to believe the woman in that … More On Inauguration Day
It seems weird to write a post about accomplishing things during a year when it feels like I’ve done almost nothing but looking back, I’m proud of some of the things I did this past year, no matter how big or small. It’s officially 2021 now so it’s time for some positive reflection: Figured out … More On a New Year, Part 2
Here we are, on the precipice of a New Year again. If you’d asked me back in March, I would have said that I thought we would never get here. But somehow, time sped up again and we made it to the end. I’ve expressed my dislike of the NYE holiday in terms of the … More On a New Year
