summer
I have come to the realization today that I need to treat myself better. You know, take a breather every now and again. Take some time out to do nothing but relax and do something for ME. So here I am with freshly moisturized feet and a face mask on, sitting in bed and writing [...]
I’m sitting in the Denver, Colorado airport typing this on my Michigan State University-owned laptop. Soon I will be home and I am not quite sure what awaits me there. Boxes of things to sort through, a too skinny mother, a worn down father. I’ve ignored the reality of everything all summer and now I’m [...]
