Unpopular Opinion
I saw Dear Evan Hansen last Saturday. I knew it won a bunch of Tony Awards. I knew it was well loved and very popular. And I did not like it. I loved parts of it, I must admit. There were some great songs. The acting was really good but the characters weren’t as developed…

Daily Prompt 5/21/23
This prompt is funny to me because I don’t work fully. So there’s not a ton of balance that I need to do between work and home life. But in the past, I could not balance work and home life. My work life always had the potential to completely disrupt my home life and there…

Daily Prompt 5/10/23
(I started this 6 days ago and never got back to it. I am going to keep the original date.) I decided to just go in order of the prompts I’ve already used. I thought this one would be so easy but as I sit here thinking, I realized that it’s not. There’s a lot…

I fixed a thing
As I stated the other day, I am in a season of life where all I seem to do is change batteries and light bulbs. After this week’s microwave bulb adventure, I had a realization that perhaps I could replace the air fryer light bulb that has been dead for FOREVER. Like before I ever…

It came today
Since I became an adult, I have had the original copy of my birth certificate that my parents received after I was born. The copy they used to register me for school, for extracurricular activities, again for middle school when we moved, and then in high school when we moved again. I used it to…

Our Cats

These cats are like toddlers. They can be really sweet, but they also have tantrums which include purposely swatting at the blinds,…

Hurricanes
I lived in Florida three different times. I spent so much time during the hurricane seasons, glued to the weather reports and wanting to make sure I was prepared for anything, especially once the kids were born and we had a bunch of pets. I’ve owned two houses there, one I still have and one…

Future plans
Today I have a phone call later with an admissions person from a program I’m considering applying to soon. I was approved for a program with the VA that allows me to participate in a program that the VA will pay for and I will also get a housing stipend. It’s called VRRAP and that…

Heart of Steel
I am an empath. I remember the day I started being able to feel other people’s emotions. I was young, watching the first Christopher Reeve “Superman” movie. There’s a part where his dad on earth dies and his mother is heartbroken and he decides it’s time to leave home. I think I was like 7…

The Beginning
If you meet me in person, you would have assumptions of who I am. You would think that I was old, boring, and not really very much fun. But the truth is that I’m not any of those things. I have never felt my age and I know I’m not boring but I am excessively…
