  • My mind is always reeling

    My mind is always reeling

    Busy busy busy. I’m a busy bee. The routine is back! September is here and the routine is here to stay now. And I’m thinking. My mind is reeling. Now I’m not sure if I’ve used that word correctly but it reminds me of a movie reel like they use in the theaters. It just…

  • Why is my body doing this?

    Why is my body doing this?

    SAY WHAT? Why is my body doing this?! We only have one body and we are supposed to take care of it. I believe in that wholeheartedly. But sometimes I feel like my body is trying to kill me or something! It’s like it is attacking me half the time or… even better… it’s like…

  • When life gives you lemons and what not

    My goooddddnessssssssss I think I hit stone bottom yesterday. You know, the smaller less mean and horrible younger brother of rock bottom. I really do think that. I was feeling awful about my job and about my life. And why ?! That directionless feeling crept back in… You know the feeling I mentioned before? The…

  • Passions are what define our lives.

    Passions are what define our lives.

    I read that somewhere… that title up there. The entire sentence actually reads “passions are what define our lives, not professions”. I feel very strongly about this. I also use my passions to guide my life and I’m not ashamed of that at all. What is hard for me is that I still need to…

  • Loneliness and solitude

    Yesterday I volunteered at the Croke Park Classic! For those who aren’t familiar it was a college football game that was hosted in Dublin’s Croke Park, which is a very well known and historic venue for GAA sports. Penn State played UCF in their season opener and it was an amazing game! Because I volunteered…

  • Where’s the ‘me time’

    Why do I always feel like I need to be connected? I enjoy having me time. I really do. Or do I? The second that phone beeps or I have a thought about someone it leads me to Facebook. I probably unlock my phone about 400 times a day and maybeeee… maaayybeee 20 times there…

  • My Mind is about to explode

    My Mind is about to explode

    I got 12.5 hours of sleep last night. Woah. I’m not sure what happened in that time, but it feels like my mind is going to explode. Usually sleeping helps people feel refreshed. Well not me I guess. Not every time at least. My body feels much better. I have been pushing myself to the…

  • Today feels like a hard day.

    Do you ever just have one of those days… One of those days where things keep happening but none of it is going your way? And you say to yourself … I don’t want this day. Today feels like a hard day. Well that happened to me today. I had plans. Big ones. I was…

  • The Whites of Your Eyes

    The Whites of Your Eyes

    I’m still thinking … all I do is think all day! It’s a blessing and a curse. Anyway, yesterday’s Daily Post prompt got me thinking about what cause I am passionate about. So I had to think about it for a minute, because I can’t really say that a particular cause has been a significant part of…

  • About that Totem Pole

    I just can’t believe how ironic life is. And you know the way they say that whatever you put out in the universe is what you attract/what comes back to you? WELL it must absolutely be true, especially with whatever you write. I wrote about balance and power and standing up on that totem pole…
