Microwave vs Slow Cooker…

It’s no secret (well maybe that’s not true since I did keep it a secret for a long time) that I’m trying to write a book. For the past year I’ve been trying to regurgitate my life into some form of written story. The hard part is that it’s so fucking emotional that it takes […]

Dis(re)connecting

It’s been a few weeks since I decided to get rid of my Facebook & Twitter apps on my phone. I am trying to disconnect from social media as much as possible in order to re-connect with myself and my environment.

It hasn’t been as easy as I was hoping and […]

Do you need to do some cleaning?

I often imagine this is what my emotional (not so) well being looked like before I began this Life Changing Journey of mine. An entire emotional “house” so chaotic I never knew where to start and always felt like it was going to be too much to deal with that I just never […]

Decisions…

When I left the Tacoma to move to Halifax I didn’t really leave too much behind. Don’t get me wrong, I have a strong love for the 253 and the Big Brother city of Seattle. What I knew I loved about where I was from was easily found in the place I was […]

400th Post…

Yep…

400.

For the last 400 posts I’ve shared everything that is my life. No holds bar. The fears, the triumphs, the miles run, the pounds lost. The leaving of what was comfortably known and the finding of love in the most unexpected of places. Three years I’ve diligently […]

There is life in loss…

Have you ever been so tangled up inside you’re at a loss to find some cohesion in your emotions?

That’s how I’m feeling this week.

I know the words are inside of me. The emotions, the tears, the immense love for those around me both near and far. The feeling of […]

Are you just getting by?

There are a few things I’ve had to get accustom to since moving to Halifax 14 months ago.

Things like mail is not delivered on Saturdays, nothing is open on Sundays and it’s more likely than not that 3 or 4 cars will zoom through the yellow/red light while […]

Thinking of you…
