Long Days, Heavy Bags, and a Little Bit of Relief
I know…it’s been a couple of days. And whew, let me tell you—it’s been a rough couple of days at that. Let’s rewind back to Friday. At 6:30 a.m., bright-eyed and not-so-bushy-tailed, I walked into Moffitt Cancer Center for my 210-minute Dextran iron infusion. That’s three and a half hours, folks, but spoiler alert—it turned into seven […]
Hematology Appointment: Finally, Somebody’s Trying to Fix Me
Well, folks, the hematology appointment was actually a success. Can I get an amen? At least somebody is finally going to try and fix whatever my 44-year-old body thinks it’s doing pretending to be 70. I’ll be getting my very first—and Lord willing, my only—210-minute iron infusion in the next couple of days. They even had an opening […]

Simply Sina: Operation Monkey Madness
I’m on a mission, y’all. Not just any mission. A monkey mission. Yes, you read that right. I want a monkey so bad I can practically hear one chattering in my ear right now. And guess what?

Busy Before Breakfast: A Simply Sina Morning
Well folks, it’s 8:30 AM and I’ve already lived a whole lifetime. Downstairs? Clean. Kids? Fed. One shipped off to school. The other? About to be escorted to the gates of education by yours truly in just a few minutes. Meanwhile, my bathroom looks like a crime scene the cleaning crew forgot, but we don’t talk […]

Big announcement, friends—I have officially opened a TikTok Shop! That’s right, Simply Sina has gone retail, and I’m filling it with all my personally designed t-shirts. You’ll find goodies from: Oh, and because I love you (and because I’m just that extra), I’ve also added some holiday shirts that I designed myself. Cute, festive, and ready for […]
First Day of School… Florida Edition!
Today was a big day, y’all—the boys started school for the very first time here in sunny Florida! And get this… for the first time in their entire school careers, they don’t have to wear uniforms. Can I get a hallelujah? No more khaki and polo combos—it’s all about self-expression now. Carson officially started high […]
Coffee, Homework, and Health Insurance Headaches
Sometimes you just need to get out of the house. Not for anything glamorous—just for sanity, space, and maybe a refillable cup of caffeine. Today’s study session is brought to you by Starbucks lobby seating, where the coffee is endless (if you know the hack). Okay, I didn’t know either, but apparently if you hang […]
Simply Aging, Simply Colonoscopies, Simply… Help!
Well, folks, it’s official—your girl is getting old. How do I know? Let’s say my last weekend plans didn’t involve brunch or beach days… they involved a gallon of prep solution, a bathroom, and prayers for mercy. That’s right—I had my very first colonoscopy this week! (Cue the confetti made of saltine crackers and clear […]
Sunburns, Scream-Singing, and Convertible Chaos — A Miami Moment to Remember
Y’all. Let me tell you something — Carrley was in town for the week, and we were thriving. The vibes? Immaculate. The snacks? Stocked. The plans? Chaotic, unhinged, and exactly what we needed. She rolled in like a little hurricane of fun, instantly derailing any sense of routine I had (which, let’s be honest, wasn’t much […]
