Yesterday we celebrated Easter Vigil at St. Catherine of Sienna Church. Jason and I have been attending RCIA since Fall 2022. Today was an incredibly extraordinary day not just because of Jason’s Confirmation and my re-entrance into the church after many years. In the Catholic faith this Mass is sacred and recognizes and reaffirms our … Continue reading Easter Vigil and Jason’s Confirmation
Often times when I reflect on myself, it is struggle to identify the cause of continuous negative sense of self worth. With any analysis, the first instinct or reaction is to naturally say what or how did this happen? What changed, what caused this event or series of chain reactions? Our investigatory nature feeds on … Continue reading Sarbear check-in
Today was an extremely long, grueling day. Started the morning off with an early morning workout with a friend. Worked from home and took a break to stop by the church for a meeting with the priest to discuss some upcoming events and getting our marriage blessed. Jason will be officially confirmed Catholic on Saturday’s … Continue reading Backwards progress
Hyper vigilant and ever cautious. I notice my thoughts moving faster, my sleep slightly disrupted. I catch myself. I hope against hope. This is a fleeting disturbance in my mood. I am not cycling, yet. But identify that I need an adjustment, and to be aware of the slight symptoms. I have a busy week … Continue reading Fleeting disturbances

Lately I have felt increasingly helpless. As much as I try. As hard as I may want things to be different. I cannot change others. Deep down I know this. I can only make an impact to some degree. Especially when it comes to choices others in my life may chose. I can only help … Continue reading Silence
We had an awesome volunteer meeting for GAL last Thursday. Staff, Attorneys, the entire team of CAMS (Child Advocate Managers, that’s my job—a glorified social worker) and all of the volunteers we work with on our cases were in attendance. We met at the local pizza joint, the Mellow Mushroom. There were 30+ people there. … Continue reading Volunteer Meet N Greet- Guardian Ad Litem
We had another jam packed weekend. Beach on Saturday with friends, Lax coaching and Ella’s playing Goalkeeper, church, chores, gym twice this weekend, laundry, mommy’s office re-org, cooking, more laundry. Back to the grind tomorrow after so much family fun. Sometimes having so much going on makes the weekend seem so short. I had some … Continue reading Beach, Lax, Friends and not enough Sunscreen
I do love a good concert. I was asked by a girlfriend to go to SeaWorld in Orlando to see Hanson. The first thought that popped into my head was an instant throwback. The one hit, “Mm-Bop” came flooding back and memories of the late 90s. I thought instantly of high school and mainstream boy … Continue reading Hot mom date and a 90s flashback

Lately I have tried to check in mentally and emotionally with myself. I feel pretty good, level moods mostly, good sleep routine, overall health improving steadily. I have been working out 4-5 times a week, which is exhausting my body, and my mind sometimes overstimulated with work, family and outside obligations. What I am lacking…is … Continue reading How you doin?
I have been neglecting Seascape for some time, and need to change that. Just an update on life in general, it is exciting, grueling at times, work is incredibly time consuming, extracurricular activities for the kids is in full swing for the spring. Frankly, I am a little over done. So today, I scheduled a … Continue reading SGs mental health day
So here we are, January 2nd, 2023. I have made a shitty effort the past 6 months to get myself back in fighting shape. I am not very excited to post this, but hope to use it as motivation to keep my ass accountable. If I were paid in pounds lost and gained over the … Continue reading Here we go again
