Moving is almost rarely enjoyable. I mean, you have to pack up all your stuff just to unpack it again somewhere else? You eat off of paper plates with plastic utensils for your last week because you know your kitchen takes the most to pack. You shift boxes around for weeks while you try and […]

Lenten Season
Today is Ash Wednesday. That means that it’s the beginning of another lenten season, leading up to Easter Sunday. It’s all happening a bit early this year. I mean, Easter is April 1st! There are a ton of things happening between now and then (#staytuned), so it’s going to be a very busy Lent. Each […]

2018: New Year, New Resolutions
Happy New Year! 18 is my lucky number, so I have high hopes for this year. It has to be better than the last two years, right? I’ll be moving, visiting San Diego, and who knows what else?! I’m going to be more intentional about my resolutions this year. I had six last year. Ron […]
2017: Resolution Recap
Part of me is having a hard time believing how fast this year has gone by. The other part of me is super happy that 2017 is over. This last year wasn’t hard, per se, but it was a very uneventful year. I’m kind of bored. Anyway, at the end of each year, you get […]
Declutter Challenge: Clean by Christmas
Happy December! The longer you live in one place, the more “stuff” you accumulate. For me, I’ve been in this apartment for about a year and a half. When I moved out of my last place, it was quite a rush, so I didn’t purge and declutter the way I wanted to. I’m planning on […]
30 Days of Stress Relief
There are a lot of different stressors in our lives: travel, family, work, money…you name it, chances are that it stresses someone out. Though I tend to thrive in multitasking, I do tend to get overwhelmed with a large volume of tasks. At work, I’m coordinating our annual conference, a $50,000 philanthropic effort, my boss’ […]
Writing Challenge | October 2017
I’ve always liked writing. Not necessarily authorship writing, but just writing things down. I have a million notebooks around my house, so why not put them to use? For October, I’m taking on this writing challenge. This isn’t entirely introspective, like some of the others I’ve taken on have been. Some of these are just […]
7 Days of No Television
Happy Monday! For the next week, I’m taking on a mini-challenge and doing seven days without television. If you recall, I like having noise in the background when I come home and do things. However, my time spent with Netflix on is distracting. Do you know how many more books I could read? How many […]
Perfect Abs Challenge
With the holidays terrifyingly around the corner, it’s never too early to get in shape. Heck, it’s not too late to get in on your new year’s resolutions either. For September, I’m tackling the “30 Day Perfect Abs Challenge”. Thanks, TransformFitspo! Now, I like to think that I’m a fairly fit person. I’m not a […]
The Single Girl Challenge
It’s been about a year. Since what, you ask? Since my last date. Since my last relationship. Yeah…I’ve been single for a year now. I’ve learned a lot for sure! Instead of harping on my single-ness being a negative thing (as a lot may do), I’m going to take this month to conquer The Single […]
