Do Butterflies Remember Life as a Caterpillar?
One of my favorite extra curricular activities is people watching. Some of my favorite people to watch are children. Yes, that sounds really creepy but it’s not as bad as it sounds. Watching kids at play and in conversation with one another is hilarious. It is such a good reminder that we, as adults, take…
Robby the Wild Rabbit
This is Robby Robby, short for Robin James Walton, is my newly acquired rabbit! The best part about my new pet? He was free, I don’t have to clean up after him, and he doesn’t shed his beautiful, silky, allergy inducing, rabbit fur in my house. Robby is a wild rabbit and I have become…

Weekly Photo Challenge: Up
Up. Often times a child’s first word. What a wonderful ability to possess; walk up to a pair of legs, say the word “up”, and like magic you are lifted into the arms of a loving parent.

Little did I know it would be hands down the worst night I have ever had…
Above Average Humans
So far my return to waitressing has been very successful, both financially and emotionally. I have loved getting to interact with guests and take care of people that are in need of a little R&R in the form of wine and gourmet food. There were two couples in the past week that have touched my…
Weekly Photo Challenge: Entrance
As I went through my photo library to find a picture that perfectly describes the word “entrance”, I realized something. Every photo that spoke the word “entrance” to me was significant, and sentimental. Each “entrance picture” marked the start of a new adventure, hobby, or chapter of my life. I felt blessed browsing through photos…
The Morning After a Double!
Yesterday was my first day working at the school from 8am-5pm then the restaurant from 5pm-10:45pm. It was a long day, almost 15 hours, but was a success! In the shower this morning I made a list in my head of pros and cons of this new lifestyle I must adapt and learn to love.…
