Personal experiences and events.
Well, this week will make it 2 months since I’ve been back to work. I really can’t even believe what a semi-smooth transition it has been for me after being home for 20 months. I didn’t have a lot of nerves or anxiety leading up to my start day like I thought I would either. […]
It’s official you guys, after 20 long months of unemployment I am finally going back to work! Let me tell you what has happened in between the last crazy job situation I had and this one. So, I saw on LinkedIn that a competitor of Ryan’s company was looking for a role that I could […]
I thought things were looking up y’all, I really did. I applied for a decent job straight to the company through their HR email address. I wrote a nice email and attached my resume, 2 days later they called asking for an interview. I was very excited. It was a cool business/industry and the commute […]
I’ve been feeling so stuck. As you all know I was laid-off last year and haven’t been back to work since. In April I did start doing some part time, VERY part time, virtual assisting for my previous boss who called me out of the blue one day asking for some help. It pays well, […]
My goodness, it has been a hot minute y’all! But I’m back and we are pretty settled into the new house. The last time I blogged was the day we closed on the sale of our previous home (although I didn’t mention it). We closed on the new house just over 5 weeks ago. We […]
My goodness, where do I even begin? It has been a while since I had the opportunity to sit down and write. I have written so many journal entries in my head and it’s been hard not getting the time to use this outlet to help my anxiety. So much has happened in such a […]
One year ago (yesterday), March 6, 2020, was the day I was laid off. Coronavirus was in the air and little did we know it was our last “normal” week. Let me tell you how it went down, I’m sure I’ve forgotten some details, but this is what I can remember. It was a Monday, […]
Does every family have that one strong person? The one who holds it together when everyone else is falling apart when something bad or unexpected happens? Ryan is definitely that person for us. He’ll tell you, he gets it from his daddy. Ryan’s a born leader, a realist, matter of fact, it is what it […]
January 2021 we decided to sell our home. We had it built and moved-in in 2016. It was our first home and I was 3 months pregnant with our first baby. We knew it wouldn’t be our forever home, but did know we would spend several years here learning what we needing out of a […]
So, I decided to start a blog y’all. Why? Because I already journal regularly and because my life with my husband and girls can be crazy, funny, and sometimes down right ridiculous. But most importantly, real and raw. Plus, it would be nice to know that I’m not the only one in my situation and […]
