Quincy’s Almost-Nine, and I’m Almost in Denial
Y’all. Quincy turns NINE on Monday. Nine! I genuinely don’t understand how that’s possible. I swear he was just sitting in a high chair eating puffs and making dinosaur noises last week. Now he’s correcting my math and giving me opinions on my TikToks. (Excuse me, sir, I’m the influencer here.) Anyway, his big birthday wish this year is […]
Well Bless It, Etsy’s Gone & I’m Moving On!
Y’all… I have been wrestlin’ with Etsy for over a week now, and let me tell you, it’s been a whole saga. Apparently, they decided there was some kind of “security issue” — whatever that means — and poof, they closed my shop. Just like that. One minute I’m uploading new wax melt listings and […]
“She’s Florida-Bound, Bless Her Heart!”
Well hey y’all, look who finally crawled out from under her wax melts and scooter rides! That’s right—me. I know, I know… I totally flaked and ghosted y’all like a bad Tinder date, but hear me out! Life’s been lifing in the best way. I’ve been melting wax, snapping photos, riding bikes and scooters, and making memories with […]
It’s Finally Friday!
Well y’all, it’s finally Friday—and I mean finally. Even though we didn’t make it home until early Monday morning, this week has felt about fourteen days long. Maybe it’s just the post-trip exhaustion catching up with me, or maybe it’s that weird in-between weather Florida’s got going on right now. Either way, I’m ready for the weekend! The boys […]
Back Home, Finally (and Barely Functioning)
Well, we made it back home this morning — hallelujah and pass the coffee! The trip was actually great. We had the best time visiting everyone, running all over creation, and trying to pretend we weren’t exhausted. Jimmy’s memorial was beautiful, and I swear he was right there with us the whole time. I even got his […]
Back in the Bluegrass
Well, here we are – 8 a.m. on a Thursday, and guess what? We’re back in Kentucky. The second we crossed that state line, it felt like home wrapped us in a hug… then immediately smacked us with a brisk 58-degree morning chill. Don’t get too comfortable, though—my weather app is already predicting high 80s […]
Buckle Up, Besties… It’s Gonna Be a Week
Whew. Y’all, we’ve got ourselves a busy week ahead. Pack the bags, load the snacks, and say a prayer for my sanity—we’re heading back to Kentucky. This weekend is Jimmy’s memorial service. Part of me wants to go with all my heart, because honoring my big brother is the least I can do. But the other part […]
Triple Digits, Baby: Celebrating 100 Simply Sina Posts
Well, butter my biscuit and call me consistent because would you believe this right here is my 100th post on Simply Sina?! ONE. HUNDRED. POSTS. If I had a dollar for every word I’ve written here, I might actually be able to pay for Starbucks pumpkin muffins instead of just daydreaming about them. When I started […]
Workin’ from Dunkin’
This morning started the way all good mornings should: with a scooter ride and pumpkin spice in my veins. Quincy, Michael, and I hopped on our new electric scooters (we fancy now) and zipped him off to school like we were starring in our own little scooter parade. From there, Michael and I just kept […]
Y’all, I Cannot Stay Well!
My gosh, guys. I cannot stay well to save my life! I don’t know what in Hades is going on with me, but first it was that week of pure exhaustion and a headache that made me want to just crawl into the couch cushions and never come out. Then, just when I thought I […]
