I thought I would kick off my “Adulting is Hard” series with my #1 issue – I have no clue what to do with my hair! Like, seriously, how do women (and I guess men?) learn how to do their hair? Do they have Moms that teach them? Do they all just watch YouTube videos?…
Funny story…I don’t feel like an adult half the time. I mean – I have a day job, I pay bills, I have a kid! But most days I still feel about 25 years old (which, okay, some of you might say, 25 – that’s still an adult) but when I was 25 I was…
Someone pinch me because I’m not quite sure this is really happening right now – my book, this labor of love, is available for people to actually buy on Amazon, right now! What?!?! I checked my notes and I’ve been working on this baby since 2011, that was the same year my son was…

You guys know how much I love TV right? I mean, I have written quite a few blog posts about it – like here, here, and here – it’s a deep love that has been around for awhile so when one of my old favorites showed up on Hulu, well, you know I had to…
I’m on a quest this year to take better care of myself and my health. This includes spending time in the kitchen cooking meals with real food. If you love to cook this isn’t hard, but I hate to cook…I’ve had panic attacks in the kitchen while trying to cook. Even just thinking about cooking…
I’m learning how to play the guitar! My brother gifted me one of his old guitars – a Fender Squier Acousto-Electric – with a lesson book and DVD, some new picks (red, of course), and a really nice soft-sided case. The first day back home with my new instrument, I held it in my hands…
