I mentioned in a previous post how I’m not really good with the whole daily gratitude thing. I have truly struggled with this concept since I first heard of it, and it’s a habit that I really just can’t get into.

A Little Housekeeping
We are knee-deep in spring, and I’m a bit late at doing some spring cleaning, both physically and mentally.
Negative Nellies
Ever work or exist with a Negative Nelly? The kind of person that no matter what is going on in their lives, they will always focus on the negative aspects? You ever notice how that person always look like they just went through the most stressful and horrifying moment of their life, all day long?
Generational Disappointment
On my pathway to and from work, I drive past an old brick home. It has been empty for as long as I have lived in the area, which, while not that long, has been almost 10 years. A few years back, the home had been cleared out of all items and the windows removed. It looked like some long needed renovations were going to start taking place.
The Need for Community

I hate it when something from my past comes and invokes all the old feelings I had back then. It says to me that I haven’t allowed myself to close that chapter in my life and I really need to because there won’t be any secure form of closure.
The Best Mental Break Ever
As I said in a previous post, I had a mental break last year. It was a scary, but somewhat life changing event that I am still processing, adjusting and applying to my life, nearly every day. As I exist in my life, I find myself rearranging my ideas and priorities of what my life is supposed to be, what it is supposed to mean, and what kind of impact I am supposed to have in this world.
Rectifying some Regrets
I love my home. It is peaceful, calming and a space I always dreampt of living. I fully enjoy telling people who say, “I wanna live in a cabin in the woods!” that I am somewhat living that dream. It isn’t as cottagecore as they imagine, but, for all intents and purposes, it is what it is.
