Blogmas Day 10 - Tired
/Guten abend, my guten friends.
Read MoreWe’re home! What a lovely weekend it ended up being. Such a sad feeling when Monday finally rolls back around again, but at least we made some great memories to get us through another week. So, as promised, for today’s Blogmas Day 9, I thought I’d share some more snaps and thoughts about mine and Ethan’s trip up north to Charlevoix.
Read MoreEight days into December and I’m still not feeling much of “the Christmas spirit.” Per usual, for me, really.
Read MoreWhat’s up, my friends. It’s already December 7th? No way. I refuse to accept that the month is already a week over. It feels like Halloween was only a week ago. Anyone else feel me?
Read MoreGood evening, friends. Welcome to Blogmas Day 6! Greetings to you from all the way up in Northern Michigan.
Read MoreBlogmas Day 5 - welcome! This is becoming a late-night ritual of mine that I highly enjoy. Sitting and decompressing with you all. Thank you, again, for reading and coming along on my Christmas journey with me. December is usually a pretty tough month for me. Definitely, by no means, my happiest month of the year, even with my birthday in it. But, thanks in large part to these little diary entries, I’m enjoying it a lot more than I ever have.
Read MoreIt’s already December 4th - my brain can’t process that fully. In addition to it being Blogmas Day 4, it’s also my Momma’s birthday (HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MOM). It was also dentist appointment day. Yay. 😒 So, both of those things meant that a 2.5-hour drive was in order. My dentist and my Mom are both on the other side of the state from me, so Ethan and I often find ourselves driving to and from at all hours of the day. It can be exhausting and daunting, but I don’t plan to replace either of them anytime soon, so I better get used to it, I guess.
Read MoreTotally and completely mentally blocked, that’s how I feel right now.
Hello again, friends. You might have noticed I’ve been away for a while. Sorry about that - but I really appreciate you sticking it out with me. Which I’m assuming you have if you’re reading this now. I promise I won’t be MIA forever and I’m not at a loss for words, but rather just feeling lost on how to say them. I did, excitingly, post a new update all about my visit to Jacksonville, Florida recently, which is worth a view and can be found here.
Read MoreHoly shiz, how is it nearly March?
I’ve seen a lot of other bloggers that I follow - and for the record, I follow a quite a few - do cheeky little blog posts just updating their readers about their life and what’s to come. I’ve done a few heavier, reflective life updates in the past, but never have I just sat down and written as if I were speaking to a friend about what’s up. So, here I am. 💁🏼♀️
Read MoreI’m a quitter. There, I said it.
I have quit on - not everything - but most things that I’ve tried in my life. I’ve given up on so many dreams and plans when the going got too tough. I’ve ALWAYS been a quitter. I quit Girl Scouts in the 2nd grade. I quit volleyball in 3rd. I quit classes when they were too hard. I quit clubs that made me feel out of place. I even quit on career choices and life goals when someone else told me I couldn’t do it… I think you get the picture.
Read MoreI love creating content. I’ve always been creative, but when I discovered my love of writing at University and started documenting my life on my first blog, I realized that I love telling stories for the world to hear (or read). If I’m honest, I’ve always loved telling stories. My parents say that I used to stand up in public places as a little child and tell stories to the whole room. I guess things haven’t changed much since then, have they?
Read MoreHi again friends!
I’m actually writing this one to you on location from Dayton, Ohio. Ethan and I took a day trip here this weekend - blog post all about it coming soon!
Read MoreWow! The responses I’ve been getting over Part 1 of this series have been overwhelmingly positive, which is so great for me because I love entertaining y’all with my writing and it’s been so fun during the process!
As I mentioned before, this was a request from a reader, which makes it all the better. If you ever have a creative idea of something you’d love to see me write about - please leave it in the comments on any post, or send me a note here.
Read MoreI'm just another Millennial taking on life one cup of coffee at a time. My blog Espresso Myself is a place for me to be me, for myself, and for everyone else. Write on!
