It’s that time again - the annual year in review entry! I’ve spent a little bit of time going through my calendar, my Prosebox, and my photos on my phone. Here are the highlights of what happene...


It feels weird to call it my Soberversary because I don’t feel like I was an alcoholic. But maybe I was? In a way? I mean, I did use alcohol as a means to cope and escape. It was something muc...

Back Home Again in These Foolish Things

I’ve been back home from my Christmas festivities with the fam for a couple of days now. I left mom and dad’s early because I ended up not needing to spend the extra night in my brother’s gross ...


Merry Christmas - ha, that title, huh? Well, as a colon cancer survivor, I can tell you that the Christmas morning dumps are honestly a thing of beauty. And I spent the night of Christmas Eve a...


Greetings from my brother’s lair. It’s actually the “guest bedroom” at my bro and SIL’s house (formerly my parents house), but since my bro and SIL don’t like sleeping in the same bedroom, my ...


It’s the longest night of the year. Do you know what that means? We are celebrating the daylight getting longer every day from now until the Summer Solstice. Yay! As a Scorpio with Virgo risin...

Hi December! in These Foolish Things

I re-posted a little quote on Instagram that said, “Hi December! You’re the last one, so be the best one.” So far it’s been a good December. The Diary Researchers have come and gone and have ...


NoJoMo 2024 Recap! November started with the Girls Halloween Weekend, which was super fun and so good to have my friends here for a few days. We did a lot of touristy and girlfriend-y thing...


I bought exactly THREE Christmas Gifts for others, and then I bought myself three gifts! Here’s what I gifted myself today: A Med Spa gift certificate so I can Botox my crazy wrinkled fore...


Hi. Back from Mom and Dad’s. It was a true eat and run scenario, so there’s not much to write about. The weather has finally cooled down so it truly felt like Thanksgiving today. The 3-hour ...


…Thanksgiving and Mercury is in Retrograde! You know what that means, folks? That’s RIGHT! Your exes come out of the woodwork and ask if they can come stay with you over the weekend. Did I ...


Today the Holidays feel like they are about to take over the rest of my days until the end of the year…because they ARE! And I guess that’s just fine. I’m going to embrace it. Nobody’s head is...


Almost forgot to type out an entry. All of a sudden my life feels super busy. Duh. That’s what Holidays do. My apartment is still a shambles, but I’m getting there step by step. Tonight, I t...


Remember my flower brooch Pinterest Fail? Well, I got a lot of suggestions on what to do with that disaster (namely, start all over again!), but someone asked if maybe I could somehow take a bu...


Did you know that I’m a No-vid? I’m one of those humans on this earth who hasn’t contracted Covid (fingers crossed, knock wood!). And I hope to remain that way forever! I got a Covid vaccine ye...


I started work this morning at 6am, so I decided to call quitting time at about 2:30 so that I could work on the floral brooch that I wanted to use to accessorize for the infamous Black and Whit...


I just spent the last hour and a half cutting out fabric circles for a craft I am trying to do. It’s going to be a floral brooch I want to wear as an accessory at the Black and White Holiday Par...
