In the Wake of Tragedy…
March 15, 2021**Trigger Warning… This post mentions a violent incident that occurred within a school.** I know I haven’t written in a while. I actually wrote a post last night that I was going to share this morning but now it just doesn’t feel right. I’ll save it for another day… A day where I no longer have a giant pit in my stomach – a day that I’m no longer being triggered. Let me explain… This morning, our little city experienced a huge tragedy. A teenage girl was stabbed by another student in a classroom of one of our local high…
Catching Up
When I think back on the last eight months, part of me can’t believe how fast time has gone, yet another part of me feels as though they have been the longest, most agonizingly slow months I’ve ever lived. For…
Wonderfully & Uniquely You
I have been quiet on here for the past six months. I honestly have a hard time believing that it has been that long since I last sat down to process through writing. I miss it. Writing is so therapeutic…
A New Kind of Vulnerable

So, Here Comes November
The first of November. I can’t believe we have made it this far in 2019 already. I can’t believe I have made it this far in the year, because there was a time when I wasn’t sure if I even…
My Illness Doesn’t Just Affect Me
Sometimes I get so caught up in just surviving my illness that I forget how it impacts those around me. I’ve always said that I’m a hard person to love because of all of my “issues”. For that reason, I…
Your Story Won’t End in Defeat
I know I’ve been quiet around here lately. People have been asking where I went, whether I’ve lost inspiration or if I’m doing too poorly to write an update. To be honest, I’m not quite sure what it is. Maybe…
Welcome Home
Well, it’s official. I have moved to Leduc. Saturday I was blessed with some amazing friends and family who helped me unpack and got me settled into my new place. I’ve switched over my license and insurance, gotten a membership…
