Hey! I'm glad you're here. Let's get crazy.

Signed, Savage

I know what y'all have been wondering. And yes, I've brought the tea, so take a seat. I asked Joseph if he minded me blogging about him a couple of months ago because I wanted everyone to know all about him. He gave me the permission. So I mean, I hope that still stands. This … Continue reading Signed, Savage →

Standards

I told y'all I would keep you updated on my dating life. The only reason I haven't is, well, because it went dormant for a time. I tried the online dating thing, and we all remember what a disaster that was. (And if you don't, here is a refresher.) Needless to say, those profiles didn't last … Continue reading Standards →

My Sister’s Story

I would like to introduce you to my sister Madison. Here is her story of struggle and strength. So I’ve probably started and stopped this 15 times trying to figure out how to tell everyone my story. And I guess I need to begin with where I am now. Today I am 30, on parole, … Continue reading My Sister’s Story →

Light-Hearted Life Lessons

I made pretty bad decisions literally all the years of my early 20s (I know I’m not alone). Consequently, I learned some significant life lessons. I mean it took a long time, but here we are. I can now say confidently that I am secure in who I am and in the decisions I make. … Continue reading Light-Hearted Life Lessons →

MidwestTex

Alright, so I told you that I left South Dakota, but I was very deliberate and never publicly stated where I moved to. Why? The reason is simple:  I spent some time fearing for my safety due to recent circumstances (if you are completely lost, check out my previous blog posts). But I’ve spent time … Continue reading MidwestTex →

Beautifully Broken

This blog post has nothing to do with the fact that it marks one year since I posted on my blog for the first time, but for some reason I feel it's important to annotate this date. So let the record show that today marks the one year anniversary of me starting this..uhhh...situation. Anyway, back … Continue reading Beautifully Broken →

Life Post Sentencing

Today was the first time I've cried for myself since that day. I think that because I live with such a huge mindset that self-pity gets you nowhere, I deny myself the feelings associated with what happened to me for fear that it will only drag me down. But I need to feel the feelings. … Continue reading Life Post Sentencing →

A Chapter Closed

I survived the most terrifying day of my life because I was able to get away, but the chilling reality is that it could have easily been one of my loved ones behind me giving this statement today had I never escaped Travis the day he intended to kill me. I came here today to … Continue reading A Chapter Closed →

The Don’ts of Online Dating

All aboard the hot mess express. I'm serious, I don't have any do's for ya because I've been doing it all wrong from the moment I clicked download. I'm a liability to myself at this point. First of all, I downloaded three dating apps in one hour. I guess all my ambition for dating was … Continue reading The Don’ts of Online Dating →

Weight Loss

I know that I mentioned I would talk about my weight loss journey this week, so that's what I am going to do. I lost a little over 40 pounds altogether from my highest weight in 2016 to my lowest weight. I don't know what I weigh now; however, and I don't measure myself. I … Continue reading Weight Loss →
