    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…

    Busy Mind, Full Heart

    Hello Hello, long time no post. I won’t go on about why I have been away, but I will say that I have had a lot to process and move through in the time off. I’ve been writing a lot lately, there’s been an abundance of thoughts swirling through my mind the past several months, and while I have content to offer, I should mention that the current passages I’ve penned are a bit different from the posts I’ve brought to you previously. A lot has been taking place in my world, and recently something devastating has come into my realm that’s really shook me up (I’ll likely have a…

    Angels Exist [I’ve Even Seen Some Sleep]

    Hello, hello! Here we are again after a long stint away. I’ve resigned to the fact that this just seems to be the ebb and the flow, and now it’s time to let it flow… So here we go 🙂 I’m gonna tell you a story that started about 16 years ago. I was 17 years old and my world would be flipped around every which direction, but amidst the chaos I would be gifted the presence of a soul who would change the course of my life.  We met the day after my 17th birthday, and on February 4th I would forever remember the sweet handsome face that greeted…
