Where’s The Handbook

Parenting is hard. And parenting alone is f*cking hard. It’s no joke when people say it takes a village, because wow…this stuff is tough. It’s been a difficult week being a Mom and although I know there’s always going to be ups and downs, I could really use more ups these days. I struggle withContinue reading “Where’s The Handbook”

Wild Ride

Welp, Dani-Land recently got a tad more interesting and in typical blogger fashion, I gotta write this shiiiiiiiiiiz out. You all should see this coming by now so don’t act surprised. Writers gotta write, it’s just what we dooooo. So if you’ve been living under a rock and haven’t heard everyone and their grandma talkingContinue reading “Wild Ride”

What Next?

It’s past my bedtime but I gotta get this off my chest. I want to casually remind everyone that boundaries are important and expectations should be non-existent. Between a very weird situation on the weekend (more on that later), a minor meltdown, sudden realizations, binging my favourite podcast and journaling my damn heart out everyContinue reading “What Next?”

You’re Better Blonde

So I’ve been doing some reflecting. Obviously. It’s kinda my jam. But I had a bit of a profound moment last week that I wanted to dive into and talk about. Last week I looked in the mirror & took a good look at myself. Not only did I LIKE what I saw, but forContinue reading “You’re Better Blonde”

Panic Mode

I’m going out on a limb here and am getting straight up vulnerable with you guys because to me, it’s important, and I feel like we need to have more conversations and topics discussed about real life situations that more of us can relate to. There are sooo many topics that people sweep under theContinue reading “Panic Mode”

Trial & Error

Welp. It finally happened. I’m very happy to announce that this year’s Christmas was my absolute favourite (so far). And to me, this was a huge feat. I absolutely love the Christmas season and one of my biggest dreams as an adult was to be able to share it with the people I love andContinue reading “Trial & Error”

Act Now

I’m going to keep this short and cut to the chase. Today was hard. I’m emotional and my way of coping is to either type it out or put it on paper. I chose the first option. Obviously. A year ago today we lost someone very near and dear to me and my heart breaksContinue reading “Act Now”

Timing is Everything

Mountains have my heart and make my soul happy, so in true Dani fashion, writing about my recent trip to see them and the revelations that came with it were on my priority list today. Yes, I’ve seen them a million different times, with many different people, but they just never get old. I’m stillContinue reading “Timing is Everything”

Airport Thoughts

I just polished off a massive plate of steamed veggies with goat cheese and chicken and a lovely pale ale (so boujee now) at an airport pub and when you have 3 hours to kill, you start to ponder things. And when I contemplate my little life, I obviously have to write about it. It’sContinue reading “Airport Thoughts”
