image I'm Roy. I have no idea what I'm doing in life but do know that I woke up recently, took a look around, and realized I wasn't loving it- and at 31, th...
It’s 6am, I am still in bed and trying to decide if I want to make the long trudge to the kitchen for coffee so I thought: what better time to catch up on some stuff that went down last week? A musical I did not fall in love with, a breakfast hack, and the fact that I am slowly working towards becoming our rodeos designated Jell-O shot boy. Life got busy- it do be like that sometimes. Hadestown…
I fell down a rabbit hole on TikTok today about this guy practicing for a set of Highland games coming up in Washington this weekend. I scrolled through his profile and saw several videos of him training and it made me realize a few things… That man was WEARING that kilt. I have a kilt in my closet right now, I should start wearing that more often? I could probably make those games in Washington…
Hey y'all! These last few weeks have been a whirlwind, and my laptop has basically been living in my backpack collecting dust. But on the bright side of busy, I've tried some new recipes, caught up on a stack of movies, and logged some quality couch time with the dogs. Figured it was time for a little life-update deep dive. Eats I don’t know about anyone else but this heat wave that has been…
Do you ever have one of those busy weekends where you are crazy on the go and want a tasty meal first thing in the morning but you won’t have the time to actually make anything? Well luckily someone created crockpots and I figured I’d try and use mine for something besides dinner for a change. So go ahead and call me Sarah Jessica Parker in The Family Stone because I made a breakfast strata this…
Tomorrow, I blow the candles out, rolling into the big 3-2. Since it’s on a Tuesday this year, and I am no longer a kid on summer break who can celebrate mid-week, I celebrated this weekend. My fiancé rented a neighborhood pool for a few hours, we ate pizza and played Lorcana with our friends, then I fell asleep on the couch by 11pm after I got them all to watch The Incredibles for me. It was a…
Do you ever get a hankering for homemade bread but get discouraged by how hard it is to make yourself? Yeah, you and me both. Please go watch this TikTok and prepare to question every thought you have ever thought because making bread is actually insanely easy! I saw this and decided that I was finally ready- so I present to you my first attempt at Jalapeño Cheddar Bread: Isn’t she absolutely…
Yesterday was my maiden voyage into the Letterboxd list: Movies everyone should watch at least once during their lifetime . It has been a hell of a week and I was wanting to start with something light and fun that I wouldn’t need to emotionally recover from after watching- so after some scrolling of the list I came across “How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days”. I had originally seen the movie a few years…
So, I have been out of sorts the last few months or so... but I am finally getting back to it! We had two rodeos over the last month, I have been slammed at work, and I have been feeling under the weather so that has taken a toll on everything else. Pickleball A few weeks ago, we were having dinner with some friends, and they reminded me that their daughter was VERY into Pickleball and was always…
Hello! I know what you are thinking, two weeks in a row? Are you feeling alright Roy? I’m glad you asked- I took a sick day today. This chest congestion and chest pains had been kicking my ass for two weeks now, so I finally went to the doctor and got some antibiotics and steroids. All that being said, as I write this, I’m playing the game of “How long will CVS take to fill my prescriptions”…
You ever notice how you set out to start something and follow through and life just kind of gets in the way? Yeah, that has been me keeping up with this blog. After my last post a few months ago, I even set down and wrote out a whole schedule for the following two months of new activities and posts to write about and it all kind of fell by the wayside for some reason- looking at you, life. But,…
