There’s no better excuse to re-visit a place like a friend leaving the states. And if I was planning on traveling there in the spring either way, why not witness the cherry blossoms in full bloom? My friend (and unofficial tour guide, Blade) showed me around. Read on for a recap of the long weekend.
How the Pandemic Changed My Work Life
This post has been highly requested for quite some time and it’s finally here! I wrote it, took a break, came back to it, didn’t like it, deleted, and re-wrote it again. Here goes:
For those that don’t know, I’m a Speech-Language therapist in a skilled nursing facility – a nursing home, if you will. I was brought onto the team at my current facility March 17th, 2020 just as the US was catching wind of the pandemic and shutting everything down. I never had the chance to experience normalcy in my facility, but I’ll do my best to describe what it used to be like at the others I’ve worked at.
Sozy 7 Ways for Spring
Do you remember this soft and cozy look from the fall? Sozy lounge wear is definitely an upgrade from the usual boyfriend tee and athletic sweats. The fabric is soft to the touch and feels like something you want to be dressed in all day. It’s no wonder Sozy has an entire line of dresses for an easy throw-on-and-go type of day!
Unbreakable Resolutions for 2021 (+1 year UPDATE)

Bubbles That Won’t Break the Bank
New Years Eve is around the corner, and I’ll be celebrating with an extra glass of champagne. Truth be told, my family and I love celebrating any and all moments together with a glass of champagne! Here are some of our favorites this year:
Holiday Plans for One
How are you holding up during this time of year? As if 2020 hasn’t been wacky enough already, it’s Christmas time and this pandemic is dividing families like never before. Spending the holiday alone? I’ve got some ideas!
From Cystic Acne to Clear Skin
Long before I felt comfortable with a camera this close to my face, I struggled with acne. Here I am now, fresh-faced and unedited (I didn’t even adjust lighting!) to tell my story.
Travel Diary: Eureka Springs, Arkansas
The season that occurs between summer and winter, which some would call fall, doesn’t exist in Texas! How is it possible a woman in her late twenties has never seen fall colors before? I haven’t any idea, but I left the green trees in Dallas in search of fall foliage and I have zero regrets!
My Activewear Edit
No better time to spruce up my activewear than in the middle of quarantine when that’s all I’m wearing, right? This tie dye look showed up on my doorstep as one of 7 other workout-ready items.
My Fall Ride with Trophy Nissan
Driving my car for the past couple years has been good and all, but I was so glad to get the opportunity to switch things up with a Nissan last weekend. My friend Andrew Maritim from Trophy Nissan let me escape with the 2020 Pathfinder Rock Creek Edition. Let me tell you, it is stunning!
