Home visit
I am at my parents' house for the weekend in Oyster Bay. It's nice to be back home. Everything in this town feels smaller as I get older, except for the house -- which always seems bigger and emptier. I feel more relaxed and less anxious now. My parents and I did some spring cleaning:… Continue reading Home visit
What is fear
Fear is such a crazy thing because it can have so much control over a person. It holds us back from so many things we want to do or say. It is the greatest obstacle. When you finally push yourself to do something but the fear is still there, it will turn into disaster. If… Continue reading What is fear

Sometimes people are not capable of understanding and forgiving your actions and you simply have to… Continue reading Rock bottom

Winter Retreat at Woodloch
This week, I went on vacation with my sister to the Woodloch Pines resort in PA. It was a lot of fun and also very relaxing. I have been here on many family vacations during my childhood, also came once with my friend Mary, then another time with a group of friends for my sweet… Continue reading Winter Retreat at Woodloch
Day 30: your highs and lows for the month
Highs Completed my 30-day writing challenge in a month. Got to see friends and catch up with old ones. Some positive changes at work. Better luck with money, bought myself some nice things. Wrote a lot when I was feeling inspired. Re-found obsession with hot apple cider. Purchased Electric Zoo tickets for summer. Looking forward… Continue reading Day 30: your highs and lows for the month
