So I went home. I left Denver on May 18 and came back on May 23. And it was glorious. A small part of me was afraid I wouldn’t want to come back. I dunno that I WANTED to, but I didn’t not want to….and I am back. And happy. The trip home was to… Continue reading Home.

The vet visit went well.  They did a small blood panel and a urinanalysis.  All of her numbers came back better than they did in January when I had full panels run on everything.  So her kidneys are fine and it seems Minnie is just trying to acclimate to the dry air.  Lots of water… Continue reading Minnie’s Alright – update

So I have been sick.  At first I thought it might be allergies….and maybe it is.  I went and purchased Claritin at everyone’s urging and it has definitely helped.  I am starting to feel better but I’m not sure if I am becoming well or if I am allergic to spring in Denver and the… Continue reading Sick in Denver

I met up with Jenny (my friend Emily in Richmond introduced us before I moved out) yesterday afternoon for a stroll around Wash Park.  It’s huge!!  So much space and so many people.  Supposed to be great eye candy on certain days of the week when there are multiple games of volleyball in play.  And… Continue reading Wash Park

Technically one month was Monday.  Monday the 9th of May marked one month since I rolled into Denver and saw my new apartment for the first time.  But today, May 11th, is one month since my furniture arrived and I “moved in”.  Still to come is May 13, my first day in Denver without those… Continue reading One Month

I had a busy and fun filled weekend this past weekend….and this coming weekend is shaping up to be just as fun, if not more.  I am making friends, I am putting myself out there, I am exploring Denver….I am even dating someone.  OHMAHGURD!! Thursday, I finally had the opportunity to meet up with the… Continue reading I am doing the damn thing.

I really appreciate everyone asking about Minnie?  She’s doing pretty good.  She made the trip like a champ.  She was a little off the third travel day, but Katie and I were pretty punchy too so I’ll give Minnie that one. Once we arrived she was restless, there was no furniture so there was no… Continue reading Minnie’s alright.

Could this be my first day of homesickness?  Maybe.  Yes, yes it is.  Today is my eldest nieces Birthday…the first born, my name sake, the bean!  Happy Bithday, precious Brecken Michelle! I likely wouldn’t have seen her today anyway, but this weekend the family will convene for gift giving, cake and singing.  Tear.  She opened… Continue reading Homesick?

I apologize up front for no pictures. Girl dates, boy dates, friend dates….Minnie needs a date. In an effort to be as transparent as possible with this post lets just jump in and and get through it.  I had a date…actually two dates.  I don’t even know what a date is anymore.  I haven’t been… Continue reading Dates

I have been asked by quite a few of you for photos of my humble abode, or my tiny AF apartment.  Well, here in this post you will find them.  I am in a 700 sf 1 bedroom apartment building called Skye Urban Flats in Lodo just before you cross over I25 into the Highlands.  Great… Continue reading My Diggs!
