20 Mar Lazaretto
If you've been following my blogs or work last year then you know 2019 was really bad for me. Actually, it seems like it wasn't too kind to many people. I looked forward to 2020 like it was a fresh start and I'd be leaving...

09 Apr Love, Your Granddaughter Pt.3
Saturday, February 9th 2019, the funeral. I walked into the chapel around 11am where the viewing was taking place. I saw her from a distance and couldn't approach the casket. I didn't want to see her like this. Even though I saw her after she...
07 Apr What am I leaving behind?
2019 has been such an emotional roller coaster already. As you all know now, my grandmother passed recently. On top of all of that, a good amount of my friends have already experienced losses this year as well. I've been in a really rough emotional...
