Satellite

Years ago, I was camping with a few friends. We sat on the top of a little mountain, layered in coats, looking up at the sky, and we saw a satellite. Someone pointed it out. We watched it, and then someone said sat-e-llite. And the group began to sing Satellite

Lean into Love

Recently my friends and I went on a trip and stayed in an AirBNB. In the evenings we'd hang out, drink gin and tonics, and generally shoot the shit. Over the years we've done this trip, we've started watching a documentary TV show that

Earl

Recently I went elk hunting. It was physically and emotionally hard, and ultimately, I did not get an elk. The start of the season corresponded to a hurricane, and while we were in the Rocky Mountians, days of rain, highly unusual, made the hunt even more complex. One day, while

Cover Reveal: CASH AND GRAVITY

Cover Reveal: CASH AND GRAVITY

IT IS REAL. I have a book coming out in May of 2026, and this is the cover! You can pre-order it on Amazon. When I have a link to Bookshop.org, I will share that as well. My publisher is Diversion Books, and I have a wonderful editor there

Melon Festival

Recently, I went to a melon festival. It was in a little town with a population of just over 800 people. I showed up at the start of the parade. The parade contained a variety of emergency vehicles, a high school dance team, and several mayoral candidates driving Polarises decorated

The Nicest Gift

The Nicest Gift

This summer, I took a week off. I traveled to multiple states, saw people I hadn't seen in years, and my parents came to visit. People would leave my house midday, and someone else would show up to spend the night. I was exhausted, but I had a

It's 2025...

Recently, I went to breakfast with a work colleague. It was a social/work meal, and when we got to the work stuff, it got really depressing. Let's just say that 2025 has not been a good year for my line of work, and it only continues to

#Cottagecore

Recently, I was hanging out with my cousin and she told me she loved cottagecore. I asked her what cottagecore was, and she told me it was doing things like canning peaches or squeezing lemons to make the air in the kitchen smell good. Looking it up, Wikipedia told me

Jesus Take The Wheel

Jesus Take The Wheel

Recently my husband and I visited some friends. Said friends have a three-year-old who likes hockey. The three-year-old is also learning to ice skate. At least we were told the three-year-old was learning to skate, and we were invited to go skating together. Not thinking through anything, I agreed to

PINERS

One summer, my friends and I were camping, and we decided to go swim at a little desert pond. To get there, you had to drive a criss cross of dirt roads across the high desert. You knew you were close to it when a group of towering cottonwoods and

The YOLO Approach

The YOLO Approach

Some of you probably remember, back in another life, I had a baking blog. I was going through a difficult time and decided that I would deal with it by learning to bake. The plan was that I would bake a thing a week, and then give it away (in

Stress Managment

Stress Managment

One icy winter's night, I was at work. It was probably close to nine pm, and I parked at the office, got out of my car and took a step toward the office. A moment later, my feet were above my head and I was on my back,

Busted

I grew up in a state that has a lot of skiing. And, back in the day, the more famous ski resorts actually gave out free season passes to kids. I loved skiing, and pretty much only wanted to ski moguls, the double diamonds, jump off stuff, or be in
