My kids are 4 years old and 18 months old. I love them so much, but they drive me crazy. April 29th-May 7th we road-tripped down to Las Vegas, NV from Willamette Valley Oregon to see my family. It was my 18 month old’s first time seeing all but her Grandpa (who visited in February,Continue reading “How To Not Lose Your Mind Road-tripping With Littles”

My Values and Beliefs: My Life Purpose
Taking a break from my normal content to share some other personal thoughts and observations I’ve had recently. I was scrolling Pinterest earlier today, and came across this quote by Rick Warren (who I don’t follow, by the way, but I am Christian) “Without God, life has no purpose, and without purpose life has noContinue reading “My Values and Beliefs: My Life Purpose”
Women’s History Month
I wanted to take a moment and say how grateful I am to live now in this time. I grew up in the 90’s. I got to see strong women all around me all my life. Women who worked corporate jobs, women who stayed home with their kids. Both strong in their own ways. IContinue reading “Women’s History Month”
My “Special Interest” or “Hyperfocus”
Aka: Reading Monday! One common Autism perception is that they have a special interest. Most people think of trains or cars or math as a special interest Autistic people have, but the truth is a special interest can be literally anything. For me, the one thing that has been constant throughout my life is myContinue reading “My “Special Interest” or “Hyperfocus””
Book Review Monday: “How To Keep House While Drowning” by KC Davis
My Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Overall Thoughts: Highly recommend to anyone who feels like they are drowning in housework, and feeling down because they don’t feel like they’re meeting society’s expectations, real or perceived. I absolutely loved this book! It made me feel good inside and I related to so much of it, maybe because the authorContinue reading “Book Review Monday: “How To Keep House While Drowning” by KC Davis”
Bad Brain Days
Sunday was tough. There are just some days where I wake up and every decision I make or consider just leaves me feeling… bad. Like choosing whether or not to go to church yesterday. I felt bad thinking about going, but I felt just as bad not going. So, which do I choose? Do IContinue reading “Bad Brain Days”
Bullet Journal 2023
Here’s just a quick look at my bullet journal spreads for 2023! I got a little creative for my cover page for the year, even though it’ll probably only last me around 6 months. Do you journal or use a planner? If so, what one? Do you bullet journal too?
You Are 110% Worthy
It’s a struggle feeling like you’re worthy of anything when you don’t live up to neurotypical standards. What I mean by this, is it’s hard to feel adequate when all I see on mom groups is that as a stay at home mom I should be doing all the housework and childcare while my husbandContinue reading “You Are 110% Worthy”
Cleaning With Littles
Let me start by saying I’m definitely not an expert and I am constantly evolving my routine, and what matters most to me is changing often. Especially as my littles grow and need more or less attention. When my oldest was around 18 months, she loved helping me with chores, so I’d hand her laundryContinue reading “Cleaning With Littles”
Managing Holiday Expectations
I have a love/hate relationship with holidays. Here’s why. Every year I have such grand plans for the holidays and all we’re going to do. Lots of gifts (or minimal gifts if I’m in that state of mind that year). Lots of decorations to make the home feel cozy and warm and full of lifeContinue reading “Managing Holiday Expectations”
