I didn't forget today. I finally got the chance to hang out with some old friends tonight. Most of us are parents now and we brought our kids to the party. It felt good to be silly for no reason again. I really should do it more often.
One must experience the darkness to fully appreciate the light.

I love making these daily victory posts. They really keep things in perspective for me. Today I... Got my hair done. Managed to have a quiet day at my mother's house. Walked through a thunderstorm again. Will have a private dinner with my husband! Good day overall. What can you guys celebrate about today? Let … Continue reading Day 125: Winning
It turns out that I don't have to be a parent all weekend! What do people do for fun these days? I'm super out of the loop. My big plans include... Writing some papers. Getting my hair done. Studying for finals. Grocery shopping. Didn't that sound fun? I lead such a wild and crazy life.
Personal growth is an amazing thing. Other people will probably notice the changes first but it's even better when you notice it. This all comes up because a coworker of mine; let's call her Brandy; has been going through IVF. This is her second cycle and everything seems to be going smoothly this time. The last … Continue reading Day 114: Up the Spout
Today was a free day for me. I spent most of it trying to hide in my room. Hella productive. My work week starts tomorrow and I decided to not worry about life until then. That has been challenging because my brain can't just be quiet for a change. I binge watched some youtube stuff … Continue reading Day 113: Hidden for Today

Today feels like a no pants/bra day. I don't have a reason to leave the house. I might go find some food later, but that's still up in the air. Days like this are so needed. No real obligations. No serious responsibilities. It's awesome to have nothing to do. Relax and breathe time. I use … Continue reading Day 98: Lay About
There is no feeling in the world like playing music. It cheers me up when I'm having an ugly day. You can see positive results from hours and hours of rehearshals. If you are lucky enough to play with a group, those are people you would probably do anything for. Music is amazing. When your … Continue reading Day 94: Make the World Go Round
I'm thankful today. I'm thankful that enough of our lawmakers decided to be decent humans and get rid of this ACA replacement nonsense. For now, at least. I'm also thankful for this past week of free time. The rest was needed and appreciated. I'm thankful for the ability to unplug when I need to. I … Continue reading Day 89: Give Thanks
Today's post was supposed to be dedicated to things that make me happy. I really tried to do that, really I did. My depression decided that I didn't need to think about happy things. I could only get as far as Pokémon. So, I've decided to talk about my favorite Pokémon. This list is in … Continue reading Day 88: Struggle Bug
