• Speed, salt, and fun!

  

  My vacation was amazing! It was a wonderful family road trip (the first of its kind.) This one was epic. Across five states, in 100+ degree weather. Bonneville speed week was an amazing display of human ingenuity, engineering, and land speed records. I was impressed to say the least. Camping, was fun. Weather was all […]

• Libraries a world of knowledge at your fingertips…

  Last week my local library opened to its full time hours after almost two years of closure. I cannot tell you how amazing it was to walk through those doors again, wander the stacks and check out books again. I feel like a part of my soul has been opened again. The limitless knowledge in […]

• Sarcasm…sun…and stories!

  

  I learned early in life that I could defend myself with words. Particularly when using sarcasm. Work and home have been incredibly stressful lately. I find myself pissing people off at work everyday with vigor and enthusiasm. I probably should stop that. Laughter is the best medicine in stress filled situations at least it is […]

• Sunrise, sunset,one a beginning; the other an ending.

  

  I have a hard time slowing down. I feel this tremendous ambition to keep moving forward constantly. Usually until I pass out from exhaustion. In doing this I miss a million little things. I forget my hobbies. I dismiss me time. I am exhausted from sunrise to sunset. Lately…I have been trying to undo that […]
