I started this blog with the intent of it helping me express my own personal beliefs, as well as explore, grow, and discover along the way. I’ve had a complete shift in worldview, and when an individual goes through something so powerful yet painful at the same time, it’s a bit overwhelming and at times […]

"Officially" Working on My Memoir!
I’ve decided to finally start writing my memoir! I already have bits and pieces of it, and it’s time to put it all together and really follow my dream of being a published author. I realized that if I had a goal for a book proposal of 50,000 words and was able to write at […]
Yay Internets!
My Writing Desk and new Lappy 🙂 I’m so excited to finally have internet at the house! And that I have a new laptop! It will make blogging much easier since I won’t have to leave the house, can do it in my pjs, and have a computer that actually functions properly. 🙂 So yes, […]
Band Practice!
Last night we had “band practice” at our house. Our friend Morgan is a beautiful singer and songwriter, and we’ve started jamming together. She has a lot of original songs we’re working on and some other fun covers, too. We all played at an open mic last week at Firestorm (this cute little bookstore/café downtown, […]
Writing Journal Week 1
One of the classes I’m taking this semester is the third level of a creative writing series. I’ve taken the other two classes past semesters, and I absolutely loved them. I didn’t take any creative writing classes during my undergraduate, so this has been a great chance for me to explore writing and work with […]

Well, I have quit my job as manager of The Regeneration Station and have decided to go back to school and teaching. I’ve really missed teaching at Ivy Tech and […]
Calling on My Angels – It’s Baby-Making Time!
I’ve been trying for about a year and a half to get pregnant. Dustin had his vasectomy reversal in April 2011, and we’ve been letting nature take its course since then. Over the last month or so, I’ve felt that it’s very close. I’ve been praying and meditating over my belly regularly, releasing all the […]
Changes Come, Turn My World Around
I wrote this over a month ago and forgot to post it. It’s still pretty accurate today. Dustin and I had a wonderful day yesterday. A day of great talks, honest moments, laughter, sillyness, and a hike in the rain with the puppies. It was a great release for both of us as we’ve both […]
Update!!
I apologize for being such a sucky blogger. It just gets a little crazy around here sometimes!! So, here’s a quick, end-of-the-day update on the Allen’s! Update #1: We’re crashing at my bosses house for a bit while we continue our home search. Got a great lead in that tonight, actually. The guy next door […]
A Young Professional
So I know I haven’t updated in forever and you probably all feel there’s tons that needs to be filled in, and I’ll get to it eventually. I just don’t want to miss out on nights like tonight where I really want to talk about what’s going on NOW. Junk Recyclers joined the Chamber of […]
