  • Finance Update

    I have started my hopeful journey to being a minimalist. Which is kind of funny based on the amount of things I have. But I started today listing some of my clothes on Poshmark and also found out you can list dishes on the app as well. I am slightly obsessed with Poshmark due to…

  • Saving Money to Travel!!

    I wouldn’t say I’m a compulsive shopper, but I do have some weaknesses when I am at the store. Especially at Target and any arts and craft store…. I have long considered myself to be a writer and have a serious weakness for any kind of notebook and all kinds of pens. If there is…

  • Roots

    Growing up with a mother who landscaped and a grandmother who we joked only fed us nuts and berries, I spent much of my time growing up outside.  Being born in the early 80s and not getting a cell phone until 1999 (when I was 16!), I didn’t have the distraction of social media or…

  • Starting a Podcast…

    Recently, I have being toying with the idea of maybe starting a podcast. Not a podcast where I have guests and long discussions, but maybe a podcast where I can read some of my stories out loud (if I can read my own handwriting) and see how things go. I have recently become a huge…

  • I Don’t Miss Middle School…

    Have you ever had something happen in your life that years later, you still remember everything about that day? I had a group of friends I grew up with – many I played sports with (soccer, softball, tag, Commando) and went to school with from Kindergarten on – but somewhere along the way, I think…

  • Yoga, Part 3

    Fast forward a few years and I finally made the leap and became a Certified Yoga Teacher! At first, I didn’t take the plunge once I was back in Oklahoma because I was so nervous about what everyone else would say and think because I can barely touch my toes because my hamstrings and hips…

  • Yoga, Part 2

    So here I was, in Dallas by myself, looking for ways to not spend every night alone in my apartment. I bought a two week pass to try out the Dallas Yoga Center which, fortunately for me, happened to be within walking distance of my apartment. I had first tried to go to a yoga…

  • Yoga, part 1

    I never intended for this post about how I really got into Yoga to be so long! I apparently didn’t think I had so much to say, so I’m going to break this blog post into a few so it won’t be so crazy… Many years and a few moons ago, I lived in Dallas.…

  • A Little About Me!

    This is a totally different post than I’ve ever done before! Especially since it’s not a fictional story, but a story about me! I’m aiming to make this blog a little more personal and let you know what is happening with my life and of course, my dog, Lovie. Lovie and I have just moved…
