    This was the night I face super close and personal (thankfully through my tent) with a black bear and his nose!

    I could hear it breathing in my face through my tent ⛺️

    I named the bear 🐻 Yogi because he ate my Hoogies ( bread / bun) at 3am 😩

  • If you had a time machine and could send just one message to your past self, what would it say?

    “RUN”

    Stop confusing survival with love. I do not have to stay where i am hurting just because i have survived there before.

    Trust yourself sooner.

    Leave when your soul tells you to leave.

    The life waiting for you will be quieter than the chaos you’re used toβ€”and at first that quiet will scare youβ€”but one day you’ll realize it’s called peace.

    You make it.

  • I love planes!

    And I love photography (:

  • What’s a moment when a stranger completely restored your faith in people?

    “You deserve Grace”

    Those were the words I heard from the hospital intake lady. 

    She asked me my reason for being there ask listened to me eithoht judgment.

    She was sincere and I just remeber her kind words of “You deserve Grace”.

    This was back in 2015 I want to say also.

    That phrase has stuck with me.

    It made me believe people a little more but mostly restored faith in myself.

  • If your future self could send you one sentence, what do you hope it would say?

    “You survived”

  • In 2018 I moved to Utah with my sister who is in the Air Force when she got her new orders.

    I was at the recruiting soon after trying to find a good daycare to work at that was not on base where I lived.

    I found one but the vibes was off.

    I enlisted in the Navy, entered the Delayed Entry Program, was preparing to become a Logistics Specialist, and had a projected June 11, 2019 departure date for boot camp.

    A family emergency came up and I had to pull and moved to Colorado.

    I had the ASVAB, the oath, a likely ship date, and a Logistics Specialist pathway all lining up β€” and then my life went in a completely different direction.

    What gets me is that the type of work still echoes forward: organization, records, supplies, coordination, keeping a million moving parts straight. Different uniform, wildly different setting. πŸ˜…


    It’s the kind of thing that makes you look back at 2018 and go, β€œOh wow… I was much closer to an entirely different life than I realized.

    Im a assistant director at a daycare currently and pretty much do logistics specialist for kiddos πŸ˜…

    Just crazy how life can take a turn and change so fast.

  • Spend the week with my whole family for vacation!

    We went to Tahoe!

    After I got to spend time with my sister and her two youngest one, my 2 year old nephew (youngest of 4 babies) and my 7 year old Niece (the only girl of 4. Two older brother, her, and then brother)

    Anyway I found horses on base (She’s in the military).

    Just beautiful (photo credit: AngelicaLauraPhotography)
