The “Truth” Can Hurt
Posted on March 15, 2019 7 Comments

So, the last blog caught some attention. And I’m not going to lie, I am glad. I know there were some who were severely offended by what I had to say, and that’s okay. I probably would have been too if I had read it while I was still a United Pentecostal. But let’s be […]
An Open Letter To My Former Religion
Posted on February 24, 2019 21 Comments

Dear United Pentecostal Church members and leaders, I am one of your poster children for a model UPC home. My parents were at your churches every Sunday morning, Sunday evening, Wednesday night, Friday youth service, and Monday prayer meeting. I attended every camp, convention, and conference for a total of 25 years of my life. […]
The Tattoo

I get asked a lot if there is a story behind my tattoo. It is something close to my heart, so I thought I would explain. It is a little piece of my journey and has a huge emotional connection for me! First, I must admit, I have always secretly wanted a tattoo! However, growing […]
Triggers Are A Thing.
Posted on November 20, 2018 4 Comments

Completely transparent, open and honest blog today. This probably will solidify any thoughts anyone may have about my current level of crazy. Triggers are a thing. I had no idea. I have heard it said, read about it at times how certain words or things can “trigger” someone’s anxiety and to be honest, I had […]
Remembering

I feel a little sentimental today. (Could be hormones, maybe a little). While texting with a friend about setting our phone’s lockscreen with an encouraging message, (super important to encourage yourself) I began reminiscing about the images I have on my phone. I have two, an encouraging quote for the lock screen and this one […]
Why.

First things first. Vacation was ah-mazing! Lots of Florida sunshine equals a great tan and plenty of pool time! It was relaxing and refreshing to spend time together without the kids. I feel blessed and renewed! And to top it off, my kids survived five days without me! That in itself gives me hope for […]
Judging The Judgy
Posted on October 11, 2018 2 Comments

Somethings just shouldn’t have to be said. Emotions are running away from me today as I watch as people are judging their fellow humans on social media. I feel like I need to fast Facebook for a while, gain some renewed perspective. I am certain that move will be in the works as I am […]
Oh The Chaos In My Head!

I decided from the get go this would not be on a specific time schedule. I despise those, just ask my husband. Maybe, it is just because Tuesdays are my scheduled days off and my mind goes all crazy not being at work. Whatever the case, this time around, this blog proceeds the first by […]
So Much To Learn!
Posted on September 25, 2018 4 Comments
People write blogs for all sorts of different reasons, some for business, some for fun. This is something, I think, will be more therapeutic for me than anything! I need an outlet, and I have no idea if zero people will ever read this or 100, but either way is okay! I am going to […]
