New.

Hi :)

So I'm not completely sure why I created this. Kind of for fun, but mostly because I find that I am happiest when I am sipping on some herbal tea (my favorites being Tazo Calm & peppermint) jotting down my thoughts on paper. Or in this case, online paper. Sometimes I think I made a mistake in majoring in marketing. (Not that I am using my degree yet, other than simply trying to market myself to various companies & networking leads in attempts to find a way to use my hard-earned skills.) But really, my true love in life is writing. Thinking, realizing things that seem so simple but take a long time to dawn on me, appreciating the things in life that are so small but make such a big impact. And writing them down so that on a day when the sun (literally or figuratively) doesn't seem to be making an appearance, I can re-read things that add a little warmth to my gloom.

Something you will quickly learn about me (if you don't already know) is that sometimes I get fixated on the small things, about how integral they are to life, and how overlooked they are. Like water. I am a water-addict. Literally. I have to have it, all day, every day. If I don't have it for a couple hours, I feel like my cells are drying up. Maybe it's OCD, maybe I am half-amphibian, but one thing is for sure - I can't live without water. And no one can. And sometimes, I just really appreciate that it exists.

So welcome to my new adventure in crafting my sometimes complex & crazy thoughts into words that hopefully do the English language and the feelings of people everywhere a little justice. You can expect random. You can expect sad entires, happy entries, entries that entirely consist of song lyrics (probably the repeat song of the moment), lots of pictures of my dogs and maybe even every once & a while a recipe conquest.

Just a Pacific Northwest dog-lover trying to become a yoga pro, be a good friend, navigate the world with a sensitive tummy and find a way to make sense out of everything life throws at me.

Glad you stopped by.
