I am stubborn when it comes to changing trends. I am stubborn in other areas of my life as well, but I don’t feel like talking about those. There was a time when I swore I would NEVER wear skinny jeans. They were hideous and I couldn’t believe people were swapping their flared pants for […]
My house is burning down. What do I save? My perfume collection because it ain’t cheap. (But also, my kids, my cat, my jewelry, my husband if he is sleeping through it…) ——— When I was growing up, something my mother taught me was not to waste my money on cheap perfume. Ever since I […]
My baby is losing his first tooth. So I suppose I should not call him “my baby” anymore. Especially considering he is the oldest of three children. Many people on my social media are currently in the throes of parenthood so my feed is packed full of articles about motherhood and being in “survival mode” […]
Whenever I show up to the playground with my kids in tow my friends give me a hard time. It’s 9:00 in the morning (just kidding, it’s 10:30 because I can’t get out of the house any sooner) and I have a full face of makeup on. I contoured the shit out of my face […]
7:00am. The household was sleeping while my dad and I had a quick cup of coffee together before we took off for work. I could feel my heart pounding because this was the moment I had to tell him what I had done… I had asked for a transfer at work, and my twenty year […]

I got boobs. Finally. The day has come that I can fill out a bra. It has been a long time coming considering I have wanted breast implants since I was fourteen. Well, since I was twelve but I really held out hope for two more years thinking I would wake up with big boobs […]
I had a client yesterday who recently had her second child. With a quick warning of “okay I am going to cry when I say this!” she proceeded to tell me how breastfeeding wasn’t working. She had nursed her first child for two years, and now her second, only a matter of weeks. Mom guilt […]
I have anxiety. Not in an obvious way. Just obvious enough that it makes daily mundane tasks a struggle. And obvious enough for my husband to call me on my shit. It’s ironic because when I meet people for the first time and I use the word “shy” to describe myself, they think I am […]
I am feelin’ myself this year, ladies. Or at least training myself to be feelin’ all this. It is probably safe to assume some may not have nice things to say about my pictures, but thats none of my fucking business. I told myself 2019 is my year to get ME back and I don’t […]
