I apologize for the lack of writing or responding to things on here. I’ve just been in a really strange headspace lately, and I didn’t really feel like writing because I thought it would be a little bit darker than the way that I like to portray myself. I’ve been negative and “down” (that’s the … Continue reading Headspace
See this empty syringe? That’s not just any empty syringe. That’s the LAST one I have to inject into my body, based on my current plans for my MS treatment. After almost 4 years of giving myself shots three times a week, I am switching drugs. I’m thankful to report this is a proactive measure, … Continue reading New Treatment
I was recently asked to share my story about how I have prevailed in some aspect of my life. This was shared on social media and I am so excited about the feedback I have received.

Or I guess the more unlikely source is that you heard about it in regards to chaos theory? I doubt most of my … Continue reading The Butterfly Effect
I’m trying this new thing where I am trying to be more direct and conscious with my words and actions. I am trying to be more aware of how I make people feel, and making them more aware of how I feel about them. It’s been about two months, and I’m probably the only one … Continue reading Direct and Conscious
It’s been two months since quit whole 30. I have been feeling good still, not great. But certainly better than pre w30. I can certainly clean up my diet a bit, but it’s a work in progress. I learned on whole 30 just how difficult it is to work out and do whole 30. I’m … Continue reading Controlling my MS
Photo: outtakes from my favorite photo sesh with my boys. Chaos that is my beautiful life 💙 I would say nobody grows up and imagines their life and thinks “I want to have kids, but I want to do it alone!” We don’t set out to be single moms, but so many woman end up … Continue reading Single Moms
34 days ago I woke up so tired of the pain I was in. It’s not life altering, but it was hard. I woke up with headaches, would regularly feel like lightening was striking me along the side of my face, sometimes so bad I would have to stop whatever I was doing and grab … Continue reading Whole 30 alumni
