An Open Love Letter to Mr. Sweet Face <3
Dearest Carlos, I never imagined we would actually reach this chapter, yet here we are, but before this era of “us” is concluded, I want to take a minute to reflect. We both know I’m a sucker for a good story, especially a romantic one. So buckle up, love. It all started with a smile. The first time you walked into the Gagliardi’s kitchen, the lights were somehow brighter that day. Tall, dark, and mighty handsome, but that flawless smile stole the show. I immediately needed to make your acquaintance, there was just something about your aura that I wanted to be near. Kind eyes, wide smile, and a soft…

Workin in the “Industry”
Happy Thursday friends! I hope to have some regulars returning today and I’m hopeful to have some new folks coming around as well! I’ve really missed writing. I don’t know why but I always feel like I have so much to share, so I’m gonna indulge in this urge to express. I’m so very thankful to have someone to share these posts with! In the post previous to my last, I summarized the last few years of my life that I haven’t kept up too well with entries. I’m going to touch on key points and changes that have happened since then in chronological order (the best I can anyhow)…

A Love Letter to Self
Dear Mikayla, It sure has been a hell of a year, shit, it’s been a few or even several…. Who am I kidding, if anyone was actually counting, more years have looked a lot more like hell from the outside than not. But if they were close enough to know the truth, they’d know that the greatest growth and development came from those fiery pits. They’ve forged the very being you are today, Mikayla. These last 4 years have really taught you a lot about yourself haven’t they? It’s been entertaining to see how far you can soar when you thought you were buried too deep. Tucked away at the…

A Brief Update 2025
Hi friends! I sure hope someone is still out there! It seems each entry is me going on and on about the time I’ve been away. Well, this entry I’m gonna do my best to fill you in and catch you up to all the things that have changed in the last few years. The last I had spoken of my life’s journeys I was still living in Raton NM with my Pa and Mama She. That was in roughly 2022, just before some major changes would come my way. In 2022 at the end of the year I had an opportunity to apply for a position at a production…

Playing in Puddles
They say healing is not linear, and my journey has been proof. There are places in my life where her (ex wife) influence is still felt, how those memories and traumas impact the way I move in life… Some thoughts I had today as I examined my prospects and thoughts on dating, and how it is clear to me that I still haven’t reached that place where I was once a brave soul. Ready to indulge in the excitement of a new love… I only play in shallow water… I’m still not ready to dive back into the ocean.I don’t trust my ability to handle the rush of being pulled…

Returning to the Kitchen
Hello loves! Thank you for returning! Hoping all is well out there! <3 So I ended up taking a week off, totally by accident, but sometimes you just end up getting exactly what you need. And I think I needed that time to put my focus into other things, but here we are, and here you are! For that I’m always so incredibly thankful. So this entry is all about a love I never realized I had within, a hobby and “career” of sorts that I discovered is much deeper embedded in me than I had ever realized before. This is all about my love for kitchen work, and how…

Hi there! Thanks for stopping in! I hope this entry finds you well 🙂 I’m a bit excited that I’ve found myself on a little bit of a writing binge! It’s definitely been a good while since I’ve had the urge to write as much as I’ve had in the last month. I feel like a major energy shift has graced me, and the once blocked creative flow has been released to carry these expressions out from my brain into the real world in whatever form they choose to take. In a short 10 days I’ve drafted 3 different entries and hope to edit and schedule them very soon. Hopefully…
