Hey Friends, With starting a new job (yay!) and adjusting to a new work schedule, I haven't had as much time as I used to have for writing...boo...but I know once I get settled in I'll find a balance to check in here more. I have still continued to do a weekly roundup via Instastories … Continue reading Your Guide to #SoberOctober in Vegas
So.... I know it's been a little while since I've written. Both my husband and I have been undergoing job transitions, I had a bit of a back pedal with some depression related issues, I lost my grammy, my daughter has transitioned from baby to toddler, and the general oppression of summer have left me … Continue reading Sobriety in Vegas: KNPR’s State of Nevada discussion

I've written before about how hiking and the outdoors has been a huge part of my sobriety. And last year when I had my daughter, I found that trying to research stroller-friendly trails and outdoor spaces here in Vegas was difficult. At the time I didn't yet have my child carrier backpack (sidenote: this was … Continue reading Stroller Friendly Hikes, Trails, and Outdoor Spaces in Las Vegas
Last year I wrote a post that compiled options of what to drink when you're not drinking from the north end of the Strip to the south. But the thing is, unless we work on the strip, most of us locals really don't spend much time there. For Dry January 2019 I wanted to create … Continue reading What to drink when you’re not drinking…The DTLV Edition
Hey friends! Is anyone feeling any holiday fatigue yet? 😉 Make sure you're taking downtime when you need it, saying a gentle 'No' if you need to rest and reset. I know this time of year can be particularly overwhelming for us between travel, family time, out of town visitors, birthday celebrations--all the things. As … Continue reading What I’m Looking forward to in 2019
EDIT: As of 2019 The Book Store has closed its doors, but its memory lives on below! You all know how much I love a good book store...and with The Writer's Block doing renovations it's given me an opportunity to explore other places.

You all know how much I love a good book store...and with The Writer's Block doing renovations it's given me an opportunity to explore other places. In early sobriety going to a book store was one of the first 'safe places' I was able to identify for myself. A place where I didn't ever feel … Continue reading Sober in Vegas: The Book Store
I think at this point we've established how much I enjoy magic shows. I love the classic Vegas entertainment history they represent, I love being in a room with other people in the dark and watching something unexpected unfold, and I love that magic is such a complicated and highly trained artform.
