before anything else...

hi,

before anything else...

i'm really glad you're here

i'm a mom of two, my daughter is almost 9, and my son is almost 2 (send help).

my son definitely keeps me on my toes in ways i didn't know were possible, and my daughter... well let's just say she acts like me when it's that time of month (she gets her attitude from me) but daily...my poor husband

i'm also a wife, and my husband is amazing, but also sometimes annoying (in the best way, but still)

life here is loud, messy, emotional, and very real, and somewhere in the middle of it all i'm also just trying to figure out how to carry the grief of my mom passing away (April 4, 2025), anxiety, depression, getting back into my faith, and the parts of life that make no sense...

this space was created because i needed somewhere to put my thoughts out there, the heavy ones, the quiet ones, the ones that have no place to go

but i also hoped it could be something more... a place where someone could feel less alone even just for a minute.

i stay anonymous here not because i'm hiding, but because i want this to feel open, like it could be anyone... like it could be you too

you don't have to have the right words here

you don't have to explain everything

you don't have to be okay

you can just be

and if you ever need to talk...

that space is here for you too

i'm really glad you found this
