I’m Aging & I Like It

I was 22 when I married Brandon. I was glad I was 22 because 21 sounded so young. At 22 the world started giving me more respect, which is why I’m desperately awaiting 30. I think 30 will be the best year of my life because people will stop considering me young and unable to

Honestly Looking for Candor

My grandparents are (part) Macedonian so I grew up calling them Baba (Grandma) and Dedo (Grandpa). Sundays were big family dinners where the entire family gathered, ate, and drank.

Suffocating Fog

This morning I woke up at 3:30am (well actually 3:38am) to make it to Rockford, IL – for a triathlon- for Brandon. Love that man. The morning had thick air that the moon could not glow through and the roads were covered in a frothy fog. There were gaps where you could see into the
