There's something I'm admittedly very bad at: letting flaws just be. I consider myself to be a very accepting person who will befriend anyone that I find interesting, regardless of what they look like or where they are in life. I can accept flaws in other people and love them regardless of them. What IContinue reading "Accepting Others"
Comanche Park
Comanche Park | Oct. 18, 2020 | I haven't hiked all the way though Comanche Park since they added the Semmes Library and the trails leading into it, so I didn't quite know what to expect. I parked at the park parking (rather than the library) so I started the trail at the main entrance.Continue reading "Comanche Park"
Date Nights
I typed out "This World We Live In" as the title for a new blog post. After a second of running through everything that's going on out there in my mind, I decided to write about happier things. Upon reflecting on what should be happier things, I decided that that may not be the bestContinue reading "Date Nights"
6 Weeks of Road Trips
Wow. Once again, it has been ages since my last post. These past 6 weeks have been extremely rough. Energetically, I hit rock bottom, but when I reached that point, I was, thankfully, with friends who understand what energetic rock bottom even is. Buckle up! Let me recap for you. June and July - IContinue reading "6 Weeks of Road Trips"
What a month it’s been! An update on my new job.
I can hardly believe it's been over a month - nearly two! - since my last post. I told you guys about my new job. It's hard work! Not hard necessarily, but fast-paced and a lot of it! But I wouldn't trade it for anything. Despite previous blog posts about the state of my lifeContinue reading "What a month it’s been! An update on my new job."
An Homage to Hiking
My 2020 New Year's Resolution was to go hiking every other week at parks in and around San Antonio. It was going so well until the 6 feet social distancing measures were enacted. With this, I could no longer go with my hiking partner, Alie. I went alone twice, but believing it unwise to riskContinue reading "An Homage to Hiking"

What is work/life separation when you’re not really working?
Last time, I wrote about our COVID-19 clothing crisis and the frivolousness of getting dressed. Wearing real clothes helps some people more disciplined than I to stay consistent with routines and to separate work from play. While I do love both routines and fashion, I don't like wearing real clothes when I don't have to.Continue reading "What is work/life separation when you’re not really working?"
Laziness is Exhausting
I've been tired lately. When you're getting more sleep than ever, being tired throughout the day seems like a betrayal. I asked my mom what's going on. She said: "Laziness is exhausting."- My mom, but probably someone else first. I let that statement percolate for a bit. Laziness is exhausting. I'm being lazy, yet I'mContinue reading "Laziness is Exhausting"
Real Clothes
Who else is struggling with the COVID Clothing Dilemma of 2020? You know the one...you're wearing yesterday's sweats and a t-shirt. It's a new day and you want to change your clothes like all the work-from-home veterans and lifestyle bloggers are telling you to, but you don't really need to and if you did, itContinue reading "Real Clothes"
