Here’s to raising good humans and not intolerable assholes!!! Dive in and take a listen :)

Look up the Let Them theory and you’ll totally get it. It works for EVERY kind of relationship and frees up so much stress and mental space.. Amazing.

There are some who decorate with tons and others just a few… Some cover walls with colors and with others white will do… No matter size or place or shade, nor any decor zone… It’s your house to make your home and for you to make your own.

Ahh the good old days… The days when even kid movies weren’t afraid to be dark and creepy. And even though the 80s and 90s brought us some weird and dark ones, they all came with incredible messages that are totally relatable to real life scenarios! Does ANYONE like to think about sadness, loss, problems and death? Of course not, but those are all things that exist and are introduced to us at some point or another. The fact that I came from a generation that could HANDLE all of those themes with the dark settings and creepy characters… I am grateful! To say that some kid movies today completely reflect the KIDS out there today… yikes.

And mine too! Moms… From Mommy to Momster… the relationship between child and mother is something that is more than just a blood related situation. It’s a crazy freaking phenomenon coming from generational differences, opposing views, general understanding and unconditional (for most anyway) love. You can love her more than anything one day and go head to head the next. Totally normal and expected. Tread through the Mom episode… here we go!

IN MY EXPERIENCE…. People who have obstacles, hardships and real life scenarios in their younger years, tend to have a more well rounded or greater character. I am intentionally talking about middle of the road people who had issues without those being horrendous traumas nor receiving everything for nothing. There’s something about people who have really been through stuff coming out and being the most genuinely greatest people while on the other side, those who haven’t had shitty experiences grow up thinking they’re the best of the best and better than anyone else. What do you think?

Life is made up of a million little things… It’s so important that we never dismiss them or take them for granted. Some are so deeply ingrained into our lives that we don’t even appreciate them anymore because we expect them… It’s when those little things are GONE that we notice how truly wonderful and impactful they are. Big moments in life are great. However, consistent small pleasures have a greater impact on long-term happiness than sporadic major events… Crazy to think about… More people should…

Shrek… going WAAAAAAAY back to the original before threats of distortion and stretched plot lines… The line didn’t mean much to me then.. until it did. And thankfully it has stuck with me all these years. You can’t really tell who someone is or how they are just by looking at them. There are so many layers that so many people never get to see… Remember that when you make an assumption or judgement about someone or when you’re feeling that you’re seeming Shrek-like. It’s okay. I wish there were more Shreks, layers and all, today…

Ahh Yes… the end of an 80’s era in 2025… This show was great even if it did have some holes, some blink ups and ungodly lengths of time between some seasons… SPOILER ALERT IF YOU HAVEN’T SEEN IT YET!!!!! Also, not sure if that’s necessary as I jumped all over topics, characters and timelines like a hopscotcher on crank :/ Sorry for being all over the place! The end season being a week old was still fresh in the mind and when the trains start crossing tracks…. Well… THIS is what happens.

Even if it may be hard at times…. If something is a problem for someone else, and it has NOTHING to do with you… You just have to remember… “Not my problem” and step away. This will save you SO MUCH time, effort and sanity! It’s in our nature to want to help people (most of us anyway) but we have to know when to let it be when it’s not affecting us. It’s a hard lesson to learn and some go many years soaking up other problems that aren’t theirs…
