I'm Back!

2022 was a hard year for me. That's no secret. I tried the whole "fake it 'til you make it" BS mindset for a lot longer than I should have, and ... my life kind of blew up in a messy, but necessary, way. Ultimately, I pushed myself past healthy limits, and learned a few lessons the hard way. Grief is an odd journey, but it forced me to pause, recalibrate, and strip back everything I thought about myself. It was time to rebuild. Yes, this sounds dramatic, but it's true. In that time of rebuilding, I picked up a few hobbies (I know- MORE hobbies?! Oh yes- more on that later.) and rediscovered healthy habits, what's important to me, and where I'm headed. I also realized after a few years of not blogging, that I miss it. I've never fancied myself a writer, but it was a fun outlet for me to document activities. It also kept me accountable and consistent on certain goals. So, here we are. It's now January 2026, and I don't have a clue what this year will bring, but I'm here. I'm trying. I'm going after new, big goals.
