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 […]
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 […]
Introducing Simply Sina Graphic Designs!
Well folks, I did it again—I went and made a whole new page for the blog. Yep, another Simply Sina adventure has officially been born: Simply Sina Graphic Designs! Since I’ve been cranking out graphics for this site and for the shirts I sell on TikTok (👉 check them out here 👈), I figured—why keep all the fun to myself? Now, I’m […]
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 […]
Day Four: Toes, Blisters, and a Whole Lotta Steps
Day four of the 2025–2026 school year, and let me tell y’all something right now… if I keep this up, I’m going to be in the best shape of my life. Seriously. But my toes? Oh, bless ‘em. My pinky toes have always been drama queens—no matter what shoes I wear, they’re bound to throw […]
The Last Saturday Before School: Fueled by Donuts & Retail Therapy
Listen, some people spend their last Saturday before school starts sleeping in, savoring every last moment of summer laziness. Not us. Nope. We were up and at ‘em bright and early, fueled by Dunkin’—because life is too short for bad coffee, and also because donuts. By 9 a.m., we were living the dream: The Bad Guys […]
Two Weeks Left in Kentucky: Send Help (and Snacks)
Okay, y’all. Deep breath. We have TWO WEEKS left in Kentucky before we trade bourbon and bluegrass for sunshine and sand. Two. Weeks. That’s 14 days, 336 hours, or approximately 12 Walmart trips (if I pace myself). And I have no clue what I’m supposed to be doing. Do I finish packing? Cry into a basket of […]
Treble Makers Mayhem: Pianos, Chaos, and Questionable Vocals
Listen. I went to Treble Makers thinking I’d just be enjoying a little live music with the crew. What actually happened? A full-blown concert where I was the headliner… at least in my own mind. Roll call:Michael – our musical oracle, already knew he’d love it before the first note was played (and of course, he was right).Carson – unpredictable as […]
It’s World Penguin Day, Baby! (Or as Quincy Calls It… JuJu Day)
Sound the icy trumpets and break out the fish-shaped confetti—because it’s World Penguin Day! Or, as my now very opinionated 8-year-old Quincy insists on calling it, JuJu Day. Why JuJu Day, you ask? Well, gather ‘round. When Quincy was a wide-eyed 2-year-old, he straight-up commandeered a penguin plushie from his big sis Carrley (zero regrets), named him JuJu, and declared that […]
Baby Eminem, Prednisone, and the Call of the Coast
Oh, the gut-wrenching, soul-searching, life-altering decision I must make…Do I want to go to Florida from Friday until Monday night?YES. A thousand times yes.Do I want to drive 15 hours there and 15 hours back within a single week?Absolutely not. In fact, my body laughed at the very thought. My joints whispered, “Girl, you better sit down.” […]
