hey world!

Hey world! I am very excited to start this new venture with you all. First off, I have no clue what I am doing. I have never blogged before,so there's that .  What I do know is that I absolutely love to make the people around me laugh (I m so freaking good at it) I am almost always inappropriate in the best possible way. Anyhoo,  I am lost and confused and excited and giddy to share my life and stories with you all .I hope the chaos that is my "average" life, will make you laugh until you cry and feel "normal" about your average life .I hope we can all support one another and encourage each other to be the best versions of ourselves that we can possibly be.

From Palm trees to Pine trees...

          As most of you know by now, we have moved ACROSS the dang country. We traded in the Palm trees of South Carolina for Pine trees of Northern Oregon. Part of it was our own design, part of it was we were put up against the wall. The town we lived in, was a magical slice of heaven on earth. It is a breathtakingly beautiful place to live. However, it is a very hard place to work. The decent-paying jobs are slim pickings. And if you lose said job, the next one feels impossible to come by, Its the price you pay for living in paradise I suppose.           We have always talked about moving out west. To give it a go. My husband is from there, and his family is all here,  and that's one part of the country we haven't yet lived in together so why not? There are a lot of jobs in his field here so there are a lot of pros to our decision. We listed our house and that sucker sold in an instant. Now I have moved enough in my life...

anxiety makes my world go round...

            40 million people in this country have anxiety , and I am one of them. So I guess that makes me part of the norm ? I don't know. Anyhoo, at this point it is just a part of me. I will probably always have it. I deal with it. It doesn't pop in everyday and for the most part I can keep it under "control". I have coping skills and things that work for me such as deep breathing, running ( which I call crazy runs), yoga, etc. I have lots of quirks because of it. I won't take medications.It has taken me 41 years to take a children's Claritan. I do not under any circumstances drive over big bridges. And I can never ever live in the mountains as I cannot even think about high mountain cliff roads.  I am a what-iffer. If I am faced with something that makes me uncomfortable I will what-if it to death. What if the car breaks down on top of this super high bridge and I have to log roll all the way to the bottom while holding onto the kids? What if I ge...

Glam-ma-hood. The next chapter .

Shits getting real folks. Tomorrow I will load my family in the car to go on a 7-hour road trip to be on Baby watch 2019. For those of you that don't know,( you obviously live under a rock because my life screams drama ) my 2nd daughter is about to have a baby at any given moment. We knew this was coming for 9 months. She is far away, shes come to visit, we had the beautiful baby shower for her, and now, its go time.   Today, I spent the day running errands, gathering car snacks, packing suitcases, packing my bag of things to pass the time while at the hospital, all the good stuff that comes along with going out of town. And it hit me. Like all at once. Yes, I knew this was coming, What goes in must come out right? Yes, I am excited and cannot wait for my newest little princess to get here. I picked out a fun name for my new little loved one to call me months ago. Then I started really thinking about this. HOLY SHIT, I AM A GRANDMOTHER. I am not wearing sweater vests or app...
