It’s fun to remember that I live in a place other people come to for vacation. 🌞🌖✨

Trying to get the last of those summer daze 🤩🥰🌞

Today was a day to stop doing all the time. I did some serious focus on tasks yesterday- cuz things still need to get done, but today I wanted to be in present time enjoying the warmth and visit with family. Little one had a blast in the pool and I felt very relaxed having my to do list dialed in. Learning my lessons and making it a life of balance and purpose. Happy Saturday! 🌞

when husband has to work we have a girls day valentines. My little one loves girls days and today we learned to love our selves. We stopped at a coffee shop to connect and hydrate and talk about the plans, we went to get our haircuts, went to the nail salon for a kids mani, and ate a good meal at one of her favorite restaurants. 💗
My mom would say I spoil her, but honestly I’m over trying to live my and she is a big part of it. I am also teaching her standards, and making sure even when the plans are not ideal (missing dad) she still has a meaningful and memorable day. 🤩
When I first moved out of my parents house I used to go out and do things on my own all the time. My mom thought it was weird and felt like she would never be able to do that on her own- eat a restaurant by herself, go to the movies, etc. but I used to tell her- if I won’t date me why would anyone else? 😆

Remembering and Honoring on 9/11
I will never forget getting this news. Significant moments like this leave a lasting impression. I was at school, we all sat in the classroom watching the news in horror. In a time before cell phones we couldn’t call our parents, we couldn’t talk to them and spread the word through social media.
We were haunted the rest of the day, until we either got picked up, or went home at the end of a very bleak day.

We sat in stunned silence. Understanding this would change so many things. And with high school graduation 2 years away- it impacted those who enlisted, as we were still at war. Kids then, in 2 short years frontline warriors.

The aftermath of 9/11, the loss on this day, and the losses that followed. Something to mark in a lifetime. If you have never visited the site in New York- it is something to appreciate in solemn remembrance of those we lost.

Today, pause to remember and honor the lives lost on September 11, 2001. On this day, reflect on the strength of unity, the resilience of communities, and the power of compassion that emerged from tragedy.

Pay tribute to the heroes who selflessly stepped forward, the families who continue to carry the memories of their loved ones, and the spirit of coming together as a nation.

Let's keep spreading kindness, supporting one another, and embracing the values that unite us.

Anyone want to book club this one? Starting 9/18/23. Let me know.

9 years cancer free 😁
Every year gets a bit easier and knowing I have one more year of follow up is very exciting. I am very thankful to close this chapter next year and take with me the gratitude for my friends, family, and my life. 🤍
I had cancer, cancer never had me 💜
Happy Friday!

Getting outside and loving my in this past weekend. So grateful my little one loves being outside as much as I do.

Taking time to decompress like this really helps me disconnect, connect with her, and rebalance my life and my priorities.

When you ask yourself- what is the most important thing to you? Is that also the thing you spend the most time on?

Please consider helping me reach my goals for the CHOC walk fundraiser. The walk is on august 20th and I will be participating with my fellow colleagues and friends from choc at mission where I work.

Happy nurses week! I graduated in December 2008 with these lovely ladies, and was first licensed on this day in 2009. 14 years seems so long now, I remember how much I was inspired by the nurses with 5+ years of experience starting out in ortho.
I’ve done ortho, med/Tele, float pool, Emergency, trauma, home health, oncology, and now have found a home in pediatrics. What a journey! Happy nurses week! 💜🤍❤️
