I think I can probably speak for (almost) everyone when I say that this past year was just all about surviving. I look back at what I had hoped to accomplish, and that was all thrown out the window when our lives were turned upside down.

Looking Back on 2020
Happy New Year everyone! I hope you had a safe and fun celebration. I was in bed by 11PM; to be honest I think the last time I stayed up to ring in the new year was in 2015. Woo-wee, what a doozy of a year. I think this year had more peaks and valleys … Continue reading Looking Back on 2020

I do have to preface this post to say how grateful I am to still have a job throughout this ordeal.

Quick 2019 Recap
Happy 2020 everyone! How was your 2019? Apparently mine was quite busy since I haven’t been back on since March. Let’s recap my year shall we? Our little girl turned 2 in April.
