….Reaching a Breaking Point

I have reached my breaking point. I’m convinced these “Terrrrrrrrrrrifible Twos” are turning me grey (no, like seriously...I found a grey strand and named it Larry). I was ok with Ky being terrible at home. I’m not the best person when we’re home anyway. I just want to lay down, watch my shows, drink wine,… Continue reading ….Reaching a Breaking Point

…traveling adventures 

Hey folks! So I have done it! The impossible! And now I am in my family's history books. This past Spring Break I decided Ky and I were NOT going to spend it in NC. We needed a break.

 …dating…ish

Hey folks! One of the things I knew would be a difficult thing to do, is date. Not that I was so great at it before, but I just knew it would be harder now that I'm a mom. In my mind, I thought a woman with a child and an "absent father", somehow made… Continue reading  …dating…ish

I don't know how folks...women...single moms....do it. But somehow I am, and I'm always amazed when I get through the day without losing it.
