Today I Got Sweaty
Today I got sweaty. I was nervous, and my body reacted by sweating profusely. I saw a contest pop up on my social media feed this week that I decided to enter. It is an opportunity for me to speak on a stage far outside my comfort zone, and I knew immediately I wanted to […]
Today I Made Biscuits
Today I made biscuits. I followed the recipe on the Bisquick box to make fluffy, flaky biscuits. But that wasn’t my intention. I began by wanting to make sheet pan pancakes.

Today I Sang Karaoke

Today I Heard the Ocean
Today I heard the ocean. It was a windy day and I could hear the ocean waves crash on the sand while I sat on my couch. The walls to my home aren’t that thin, but I could still hear the wind and the waves! In fact, I hear them often. They are kind of […]
