The Month of Seattle: June 2022 Recap

2022 is half over…which is strange since my brain still seems stuck in 2020. Oh well. This month we headed back to the States for the first time in several months only for the supreme court to overturn Roe v Wade and take us back 50 years…Welcome back to America I guess.

From Hate To Love: How I Became A Runner

I couldn’t understand people who said they liked it or that it kept them sane or that they looked forward to it. I thought they were a bit looney if I’m being honest 🙂 .

The Month Of Freezing My Balls Off: January 2022 Recap

So I haven’t experienced real winter since living in NYC in 2015 and a few months ago I had the (not so) bright idea of spending December and January in the northeast. I was born and raised in Georgia and even during that time, my Mom and I usually went somewhere even warmer like Florida or the Caribbean to tan over Christmas. Well, these last few months were my first foray into snow and sub-zero temperatures in years. Let’s see how it went 🙂 .

The Month Of Family: December 2021 Recap

I named this month “The Month Of Family,” but am now realizing that’s not completely accurate. I spent this month with my partner’s family who I have co-opted into my “Found Family” since we’re not legally related. Continue reading “The Month Of Family: December 2021 Recap”
