Prison

There is a person from my past in prison rightfully convicted of murder. The details are horrific and he is where he belongs. The way I make sense out of things I don’t understand is to learn everything I can. Because of this I have pockets of knowledge a mile deep and an inch wide. […]

Cover Letter I’d Really Like to Send

I wrote this in August during the height of my bajillion applications to jobs I knew I wouldn’t get. I’m lucky to now be working for Drag Queen Entertainment and I just accepted part time, seasonal position with Howard University, however, I assure you that it was a super frustrating process. To Whom It May […]

Butterfly Shirt

A few weeks ago, on a day that was just not going through way I wanted it to, I found a T-shirt in the laundry that I didn’t recognize. I decided to discuss it on Facebook with this post: Folding the laundry tonight and I found this shirt. It doesn’t belong to me but it’s […]

Ally

I hesitate adding my voice during Pride month. I am in hopes that it is seen respectfully and in support of the community I support with my whole heart. I have had a journey with the idea of advertising that I’m an ally to the LGBTQIA+ community. It’s by no means that I don’t want […]

Pennies

Maya told me that this year she wanted to do something meaningful for Memorial Day. A lot of memorials were still happening online and, frankly, I wanted something tangible we could experience. In my nightly Facebook scrolling I came upon this picture. I’m not sure if this is an actual thing, I will research that […]

My Cup Is Full

I have a mug obsession. It goes hand in hand with my tea obsession. Every cup of tea I make and serve to myself or others tends to arrive in a mug I have picked especially for the person or the occasion. The other night I restarted therapy after a period of time off. My […]

F*#king Done

It’s happened. I’ve hit the wall. I’ve been holding up these past million months trying to enjoy the little things, rearranging furniture, and trying to work out regularly. I’ve had zoom dates and tv marathons. I’ve tried to cook more and keep up with the laundry (often failing). I’ve been enthusiastic about seeing the kids […]

Get. It. DONE!

When you text me and I don’t text you back it’s me, not you. When I’m late, doing something at the last minute, off in never never land, it’s me, not you. My brain is wired differently. I want to be organized but there is so much buzzing in my head that I can’t figure […]

Nails

I have been an avid Color Street user for the past few years. I love the colors, the ease, and supporting my friend, Beth. (Please check her out, she has fun contests, giveaways and amazing customer service!) In usual Sarah fashion I seem to have developed a sensitivity to nail polish. Every time I put […]

In This TOGETHER

I’m working with multiple kids with multiple school schedules. It’s not always easy but if I show that I can be flexible and adapt, hopefully the kids will too. I’m coming up the learning curve slowly but surely. I am also a former teacher. I know how much heart teachers pour into their lessons. I […]
