Who doesn't love something new? Because something new usually means a celebration. A birthday. An anniversary. A shower. A graduation. Because something new could also mean a change. A move. A job. A trip. A haircut. Because something new might be necessary. Like clothes for a growing child. Like shoes because your current ones are … Continue reading Love-Hate Relationship

My own questions, wonderings, frustrations or anything else that I happen to think or feel of my own accord, I can be really opinionated apparently!
Yelling Doesn’t Create Matter, You Aren’t God
I’m not an idiot. Even if I was, it is never okay to treat someone this way. I work at the airport. Recently, I started working at the gates. You know, where you board a plane. Or change your seat. Or get a tag for your stroller or walker. Or where they pull up the … Continue reading Yelling Doesn’t Create Matter, You Aren’t God
Mistaken Identity
I work at the airport in Atlanta. Before COVID-19, ATL was the world's largest and busiest airport in the world. I was skeptical when I first heard this because I have flown through many airports, like Dubai and Dallas Fort-Worth. I could have sworn that those were some of the largest and busiest airports in … Continue reading Mistaken Identity
Where is this? Who are we?
Pretend that you dropped off the map yesterday and that you have no idea what went on. Now look at these pictures below. What country would you say this is? What would your gut reaction be about who and what this was about? Be honest. Whose civil unrest and violent riots? Whose tear gas and … Continue reading Where is this? Who are we?
One of Those Days
So 2020 has basically been one giant blob of "one of those days". You know the ones. Where you just want it to end. Where you might as well just go to bed right now because you are going to get absolutely nothing done. A day that is so stressful and exhausting that all you … Continue reading One of Those Days
Weatherman 0, Weather 1
Spent a whole day working volleyball tryouts. It was great! I forgot how much I missed the game. But I’m exhausted. And I just want to get home. Take a hot shower. Get in my cozy pajamas. Wrap up in my fuzzy blanket. Eat dinner and go to bed. When my phone alerted me this … Continue reading Weatherman 0, Weather 1
Is There Really Freedom in America?
Okay, so I'm not a TikTok person. Or any social media for that matter. I have no idea what TikTok is. To me, it is exactly the same as Instagram. I have no idea what the difference is. I can't even figure out how to work Instagram, so I'm not about to try to figure … Continue reading Is There Really Freedom in America?
Power Outage
6:45 pm. I’ve just sat down with my dinner when the power shuts off. No blinking. No flashing. Just out. So of course the first thing I do, is start to panic and think, “Crap! Did I not pay the bill? Did I not update my credit card info?” (My bill is on autopay. And … Continue reading Power Outage
Hearing Aids
So while quarantine sucks in many, many ways, it has also been really nice. My extended family typically only gets together on major holidays. Christmas, Easter, Thanksgiving. (Birthdays are only attempted for the younger cousins under 18.) That's about it. Because we are spread across the US and at times, the world. But covid has … Continue reading Hearing Aids
Hungry Hiccups
Have you ever been super hungry? Stomach growling. Feeling empty. Feeling like you haven’t eaten in days. Even though you ate less than 2 hours ago. But you eat again anyway. Because listening to your body’s hunger cues is important. You get your food and you take your first bite. And then almost immediately swallow. … Continue reading Hungry Hiccups
