Happy Monday, everyone! Can you believe we have 3 days until Christmas?! I am sure most of you are finishing the last stretch of work... grind hard now, and reap the rewards of rest in the coming days. Sorry, I am in transition mode from poetry to pose. I just...

Dearest readers, Oh my goodness, it's been several days since I last wrote to you all! I'm so sorry for falling behind on Blogmas. Never in my life have I skipped so many days of Blogmas consecutively.. it's been a busy, frenetic past few days. Mostly in the realm...

Dearest readers, Happy double whammy Blogmas! It's Wednesday, December 17, 8:58pm as I begin this post. Dinner was fashionably non-keto: Shang Hai noodles, xiaolongbao (pork soup dumplings), pork bun, "drunken" chicken. And my pre-dinner snack: quiches, Smucker's...

Dearest readers, Happy Monday! Today really was my one real day off from work... nothing to teach, no groups to run, nowhere to be. I'm getting geared up to go to the gym shortly, but before I do that, let me tell you about my day! I woke up to the sound of my...

Dear readers, I am back from the brink! I started getting a mild headache yesterday before my client, around 3:30pm. On the car ride home from work, the headache progressively got worse. I hadn't eaten much during the day and certainly did not hydrate properly (bad...

Dearest readers, I write to you in a peppy and positive mood-- such a stark difference from yesterday's low. Not to trauma dump or belabor the point, but yesterday was rough, for many reasons. The usual suspects: seasonal affective disorder, cold weather, soft...

Dearest readers, It is Sunday, December 7, as I write to you all from the comfort of my bed. I apologize for not getting my Blogmas up yesterday, as I had a rough day and there was not a creative bone in my body as I was suffocating through the fog of depression....

The blues have landed. Repeat. The blues have landed. Dearest readers, I wish I could be writing to you from a prettier mental landscape. But it's cold and dark and stormy right now. I was feeling low in mood and lethargic most of the day-- even my dance and...
