My apologies for the radio silence. I've been chewing on this post for a few weeks. I didn't realize it was so difficult for me to get out. Thank you for your patience & understanding.I had a scary thought. I realized in about a month, I will have been graduated from high school for 20 …
It’s time to go
Hey 🙂 I decided to take January off. Partly because I was swamped with work. Partly because I wasn't feeling up to snuff. Grief, stress, & horrible people who claim to love you. But let me get you caught up on what's going on. So remember the Grandma I wanted to see for Passover? She …
Thank you
So this isn't on my list of items to tell you but it's really important to me so it jumps to the top of the list. I spent some time yesterday going through my old posts. And in true fashion, I cringed. A lot. 😉 I guess that means I've grown, right? But more than …
An open letter to an old friend…
Hey - I know we haven't really talked in a few years but I need to get a few things off my chest. I figured this would be the best way to do it for a few reasons. One, I'm giving you your space but not sending this to you directly. Two, you can have …
Drying out
Well hello there! Has your life been as insane as mine? Work has been absolutely nutso & I honestly haven't had the time or mental energy to do much else. You know it's been bad when you can't remember much because your mind is protecting you. Survivor mode is engaged. I feel like I'm getting …

I was thinking about this phrase & how I've had to use it in my life. Emphasis on "had to." Let me explain.I like to do everything myself. It's hard for me to ask for help. Part of me feels like it's weakness (even though I know it's not) & another part of me feels …
My universal perspective
If you're anything like me, sometimes I get wrapped up in my own thoughts & fears. I tend to look at the problem from every direction & to do my best to solve it as quickly, as effectively, & as painless as possible. But while I'm focused on whatever issue at hand, I tend to …
Hiatus
So after my last quasi-drunken rambling, I decided I needed a break. A break from people, a break from blogging, a break from anything I could get away from. I know I'm still healing & that it's not a linear process. Some days are awesome & others are really rough. I had a heart-to-heart with …
Kaleidoscope
Today's gifset is by Mochimochi because, holy crap, it's cute! I was thinking last night about my eclectic beliefs & how I feel all over the map. For someone who is "all or nothing," lemme tell you, it's bizarre. So where to start: SPIRITUALITY As you know, I'm Jewish but I was raised Christian. Think …
Happy 3rd Anniversary!
Mazel tov! We've made it 3 years! Can you believe it? My tagline for this blog is, "Discovering who I am in the midst of a chaotic world." I feel like it's still true for me today. Every day is another step towards my own, personal truth. Throughout the past few years, we've covered a …
