I’m doing my best to look for the best, despite the crap. Today was okay—teaching was hard, mostly due to the fact that students don’t necessarily catch a clue when you say, “I’m having a bad day.” That, and a few rather insensitive comments made it a bit hard to get through the [...]
Well, well, well.
This Monday seems to suck a bit more than most, not gonna lie. I wish I had some “miracle” to share with y’all, but we are still in the midst of waiting, waiting, waiting for news. My grandmother was transferred to a hospital with better specialists and treatments for her condition. [...]
I know that we usually keep things light around these parts, but this post is a bit serious and not funny at all.
On Friday, I got two of the worst pieces of news I’ve ever received, EVER.
First of all, my dad was diagnosed with skin cancer on Friday. As I’ve shared before, my dad [...]
I have two confessions about things that I hate.
First of all, I hate sports. I don’t get them. I have yet to ever comprehend WHYYYYY people spend time watching grown men run around, slamming in to one another and throwing a ball. And you people you get pissed off when your team loses? You confound [...]
I suppose I should start this post with a disclaimer: I’m not a bathroom talk person. I’ve read the book but on the whole, the topic makes me wildly uncomfortable. Unless I’m talking with Andrew, and then, well…living with someone definitely opens a variety of conversation topics.
Anyways.
Yesterday, after work, I had to attend a meeting [...]
Yesterday, I wrote about the amazing book, Style Statement that I read recently. Carrie and Danielle, the authors of the book define your Style Statement this way:
Your Style Statement is the two words that define the true you. It’s a touchstone for making more powerful choices in your life – from your wardrobe to your living [...]
Once upon a time, there was a girl who loved clothes. She bought, and bought, and bought. At one time, she was ridiculously skinny and then her closet really bulged with a million different outfits and ensembles. Some of it was fun, and some of it was funky. Her closet was full of skirts and [...]
So, I’ve been working out. Ummm…it sucks.
I pray that one day, I’ll be one of those people, like a friend of mine who said to me a few weeks ago, “I had such a bad day! I hope I have time to run more than my usual 5 miles before I go to yoga!”
REALLY? You [...]
There are some days when I just feel like the world smiles and me, and says, “Amy, today’s gonna be a good day. ”
Today I:
—Woke up feeling loved, refreshed and grateful after a great night with good friends.
—Exchanged a few text messages with my brother, which always makes me happy, since I miss the kid now that [...]
So, by this point in the blog journey, y’all know what I look like, right? You’ve seen how awkward I am? OK, well I have a confession to make that might surprise you.
I am obsessed with hip hop. Like, completely and totally obsessed. Sure, my first love will always be unwashed psuedo-hippies with acoustic guitars, [...]
