I’m rebooting this blog as a space for reflection, honesty, nostalgia, and human stuff. Sometimes it’s a story from the past. Sometimes it’s a random observation while sitting in a parked car. Sometimes it’s just wondering out loud if I even like doing the things I thought I loved.
You’ll find posts here about:
Everyday moments that still feel sacred
What’s changing in the world (and what we’re losing)
Food memories, growing up, and places that don’t exist anymore
Mental clutter, cultural shifts, and finding peace in ordinary routines
If any of that feels familiar, you’re in the right place.
Thanks for being here. I don’t take it for granted.
