All About Jill

I'm a digital content creator and essayist who copes with parenting and most other situations with humor and snark. Just so you know, if this weren't the internet, I'd be smiling awkwardly and answering simple questions like "How are you today" with gems like "I like pockets."

I really do love pockets, though.

I spent 26 years in the USAF, which went by really, really fast. I'm very proud of my service but I'm loving my second act even more. Writing gives me the opportunity to flex my creative muscles and that's what makes me happy. Welcome.

(AD) Do you ever feel like you’re standing at a (AD) Do you ever feel like you’re standing at a fork in the road? Like…literally? I have been bouncing back and forth between a certain business decision for about a year. I might act like I’m sure of my path but I’m really not. So, I decided to talk to a psychic advisor from @californiapsychics 

Talking to a psychic advisor is pretty far out of step with how I usually make decisions, but in the interest of testing my comfort zone, I decided to go for it. I had an awesome 30-minute conversation with Psychic Tara that started with me giving my given name, birth date and the most pressing question on my mind. She connected with my guides and gave me some hints at things they see on the horizon as well as some reassurance that my path is the right one. Among other things, I’ve been wrestling with the idea of slowing down versus trying to grow. Tara said I will know when it’s time to slow down and there is still some soaring to do and some important people to connect with.

I’m not sure what I believe when it comes to cards and oracles and guides, but I can tell you I came away from the reading with Tara feeling reassured and energized. It was a very positive and affirming experience. 

If you’d like to get your own reading (I highly recommend!) you can go to the California Psychics website or download their app to book your reading today and use promo code ripped5 to get $5 added to your account when you purchase your first reading.

You can do your reading in the privacy of your own home via a phone call, like I did (I like the voice connection) or via a chat box. They’re open 24/7 and have a wide variety of prices to fit your budget. 

Give it a try! It was a really great experience for me, and it offered clarity with a situation I’ve been struggling with.

Two things we don't get much use for in Texas: hea Two things we don't get much use for in Texas: heated seats and snow pants!

Last week, I was glad we had both on hand. More coming about the Nissan Rogue soon. And one more picture of the crazy snow from last week before we're all convinced it was a dream. Single digit temperatures in Texas was pretty crazy. It's in the 70's this week.

I have a long list of things that happened in 2020 I have a long list of things that happened in 2020 that I didn’t expect. One was Remus. He’s been a great and entertaining addition to our family but he is hands down the STINKIEST animal we’ve ever owned.

#ad Did you know February is American Heart Month? #ad Did you know February is American Heart Month? 

In addition to Valentine's Day Hearts and other symbols of love, why not take some time this month to learn about the heart that keeps you going every day? I had a checkup and a long talk with my doctor about heart health in December. Don't worry, I'm fine, but it gave me a great sense of relief to know about some of the things I need to watch out for and some options for my future.

Lifestyle changes to incorporate exercise and healthy eating are key to a heart-healthy lifestyle. And, a low dose aspirin regimen with St. Joseph's Low Dose Aspirin taken regularly may help reduce risk of recurrent (second) heart attack or ischemic (clot-related) stroke for some individuals.

 Always talk to your doctor before starting an aspirin regimen.

No matter what your health picture looks like, take a little time to learn about heart health this month! Use as your doctor directs. #putalittleloveinyourheart
My husband and I make a pretty good team. We don My husband and I make a pretty good team. 

We don't always get along and I could easily list a page full of things that drive me nuts about him but when things are difficult, we work pretty well together. 

It's hard to believe that just a week ago, Texas was experiencing unprecidented cold temperatures and utility outages. We were living our life in one hour spurts when we had power available so we'd strategize and divide and conquer the basic tasks of running a home and parening when the electricity came back on. 

We made some interesting meals, boiled water to wash in, and tried to make candle light and lighting a fire in the fireplace fun for our kids. Today's high is going to be up near 70 (Texas, you're INSANE) and we're back to our normal work from home day and trying not to get on each other's nerves too much. Last week was a bad week in a lot of ways but there were some slivers of goodness in there, too. 

Also, this coat is probably the most unflattering thing I own. It makes me look like the Grimace from McDonald's - remember that big purple guy? But, it's super puffy and keeps me warm down to my knees. I don't get very much wear out of it but I was glad I had it last week! @landsend
