I’m not ashamed to admit that I enjoy the new Jonas Brothers song, Sucker. I play it frequently on my drive to work as it really gets me pumped for the day. I think the kids these days would refer to it as “a bop”. A few days ago I was listening to this song… Continue reading The Battle is Won.

I am overwhelmed. I am humbled.
I am overwhelmed. I am humbled. Since my move to Sheridan, I’ve done the same thing every evening. Mom and I help grandma to the bathroom, get her nightgown on, help her take her pills, and put her into bed. We sing a few songs, give her a kiss, and turn the light off as… Continue reading I am overwhelmed. I am humbled.
I’m surrounded by boxes and empty potato chip bags!
Long time no…type? I’ve gotten a few emails and Instagram dms asking where I’ve been, and I am finally able to answer all your questions!

Fat Girls Never Win: the sweatpants
I’ll never forget the ridicule I faced for wearing sweatpants all year long, and I'll never forget the feelings of embarrassment, sadness, and shame that hit me every morning.
Fat Girls Never Win: the intro
Happy New Year! As cliché as this sounds, I really can’t believe it is 2019. I swear I graduated high school about 2 years ago but I guess it’s been almost 9! A year ago today I promised myself several things. I was going to lose weight, write more, make new friends, spend more time… Continue reading Fat Girls Never Win: the intro
2018: The year of meh
Overall, 2018 was a pretty average year. I wouldn't say anything major happened, bad or good, and I can't think of any big milestones. By this time of the year I am generally looking forward to closing it out and starting fresh, but this year I am feeling pretty sad about letting 2018 go. It… Continue reading 2018: The year of meh

#notsponsored I had a great Thanksgiving, and for my readers in America, I hope you did as well! The holidays come with a lot of food, which is not a good thing for someone like me. I LOVE food.
