Throwing myself back into poetry after a pretty lengthy hiatus. So many things have changed, and so quickly, but I'm grateful my love of writing and reading have stayed with me through it all.

To all my wonderful friends out there, Happy New Year!! May 2020 be our best year yet. ❤

Happy New Year's Eve, friends!
My latest piece is about my favorite of three New Year's Resolutions, which has a lot to do with minimalism, but a lot more to do with how I'm spending my time with my children.

"I Feel Uninspired, But I'm Writing Anyway." We've

"I Feel Uninspired, But I'm Writing Anyway." We've all felt this way at some point, right? Whether we're writers, creators, or entrepreneurs, we've struggled with "always" wanting to get things done.
In my latest article, I've included the six tips that are straight-forward and easy to implement at any time, as long as you're honest with yourself (and that's the hardest part, isn't it?).
The link is in the comments! I hope you enjoy it. #motivation #inspiration #writersblock #writersofinstagram #poetsofinstagram #Medium

I just finished making a list of 31 topics to tack

I just finished making a list of 31 topics to tackle in the 31 days of January. There inevitably will be a few more added to the mix, they won't be written in this order, and more fully-realized titles will come into play, but I'm excited!
Do you see any topics here that interest you?
#writersofinstagram and #poetsofinstagram, what do you see yourselves writing in the new year?

Dinner tonight: Ground Turkey with Vegetable Sauce

Dinner tonight: Ground Turkey with Vegetable Sauce and Spinach Noodles. I'm adding power foods to all of my meals in any way I can now, and they're coming out even more filling and delicious than they used to. I found out a while ago that I love adding bell pepper in with red onion to thicken the marinara sauce, and I discovered tonight that I love cooking down kale in the sauce just as much as spinach, if not more. And these spinach noodles were excellent, filling, and low in sugar. I'll take a win wherever I can get it. 😉 #cooking #healthylifestyle

If I could wish you one thing for Christmas, I would wish you Jesus. Because when I wish you Jesus, I wish you everything.
