The last month of 2021 has drawn to a close. I'm sad about that. 2021 was a good year in many aspects and I'm thankful for all that God has done through it. I am, however, also looking forward to the New Year. I have a list of goals a mile long! (Maybe I'll do … Continue reading Random Life Update: December 2021

Random Life Update: November
Hello everyone! Here at the Reschly house we are covered in grease and drowning in sweets. That means only one thing - Hanukah has arrived! Originally I was going to do my traditional post about it, but as it is already the sixth night and I'm too tired to do a whole different post, I'll … Continue reading Random Life Update: November
Looking back on DOTL – Three Year Anniversary
Three years ago, I sat in my little room amidst pepper plants, succulents, unfinished stories, and encouraging notes stuck to my pink wall with bits of tape. My computer stood in front of me and my hands ran across the keyboard only to end up in the same place - the backspace key. I was … Continue reading Looking back on DOTL – Three Year Anniversary
The Day the Sugar Ran Out
As a rule, we are healthy eaters. Most of the time we don’t have sugar in the house and we limit the amount of junk food. There are, however, exceptions such as moving. If you have been following my blog the last few months, you’ll know that we are at the end of a very … Continue reading The Day the Sugar Ran Out
Random Life Update: October 2021 (aka month of chaos)
October was supposed to be a happy, peaceful month full of celebrating and joy. In our brilliant plans, we were going to have arrived at our new home in Utah, closed and moved in - all before my eighteenth birthday on the 10th. Unfortunately, life rarely goes according to plans. (I am sorry that this … Continue reading Random Life Update: October 2021 (aka month of chaos)
A De-Energized Writer, Halloween Protests, Guinea Pigs and Ketchup: Realities of Life After a Move
The day started like any other day this past month. That meant one thing: chaos. This is particularly hard for a schedule-loving writer who is in the middle of a three week writing competition. I had been doing great. The first two weeks of the competition were a breeze. I finished novella and short story … Continue reading A De-Energized Writer, Halloween Protests, Guinea Pigs and Ketchup: Realities of Life After a Move
Random Life Update: October
October was an insanely busy month. So much happened and I can't believe that it was all over the span of 31 short days. On the 2nd, we left our home in Tennessee and headed to our new rental in Georgia. We spent the first week cleaning a. lot. We've lived in a lot of … Continue reading Random Life Update: October
Every Life Matters
I believe full heartedly that life begins at the moment of conception. The moment a child is conceived, a human being has been added to the world. I don’t agree with people who say that it is simply a mass of cells until it reaches a certain point, and then it can be considered a … Continue reading Every Life Matters
Five Gross Stories From My Life (plus other random stories)
Who doesn't love to read about gross and embarrassing stories? Here are a few from me own lil life! 😉 The First: Inky Mouth I would rather not reveal how old I was when this story took place, but it is enough to say that I should have known better. We kids were sitting in … Continue reading Five Gross Stories From My Life (plus other random stories)
Musings of a Failed Writer
I love writing and creating stories. Ever since I was five or six, I’ve enjoyed it. My stories used to be about chickens, saving abandoned babies, and camping. When I was eleven (after being inspired by Narnia), I created my own world named Mendolop. The heroes (me and my siblings) fought angry red dragons and … Continue reading Musings of a Failed Writer
Random Life Update: April
Wow, another month nearly over! It really is crazy how time flies. April flew by with a flurry of rain, research, boredom, tea, reading, lots of stevia-coated-ice and gum. 😉 I’m really not sure what to write here. I’ve started this post like four times and just keep on deleting my attempts ‘cause they aren’t … Continue reading Random Life Update: April
Rainy Day Rambles
Well hello, people. It is a random rainy Sunday and I’m stuck inside with nothing to do. So what do I do for entertainment? *nods* I blog. Or write up future blog posts (e.g. today). Or do random stuff related to my blog. XD It’s almost one right now. I haven’t done much today....I … Continue reading Rainy Day Rambles
You Know You’ve Moved A Lot When…
Your friends and family aren’t surprised when you announce another move and are always asking, “Hey, where are you moving next? You’re a pro at packing and unpacking. You can’t believe it when people talk about growing up in ONE house and rarely leaving the state. You move instead of taking vacations. Your online shopping … Continue reading You Know You’ve Moved A Lot When…
Random Life Update: March Edition
*searches through journal entries from the past month* Ahem. I may have momentarily forgotten what we did during March. XD Honestly, March has been the best month of 2020. Amidst all the fear of the coronavirus and days where I collapsed on my bed and wondered, “Is it bad that being happy seems like such … Continue reading Random Life Update: March Edition
A Day In My Life
Miss Rosy Marr, you are my blogging inspiration. 😛 Rosy did a blog post about a day in her life, which inspired me to do one as well! (Sorry, Rosy, I keep stealing your ideas....) 9:15 AM I (reluctantly) wake up and headed downstairs for breakfast with my family. 10:00 I go outside for my … Continue reading A Day In My Life
Random Life Update: February Edition
Hello hello hello, O My People. What’s up? Just to forewarn you, I’m going to be extremely crazy and weird in this post. For three reasons. #1: I was up extremely late last night and got up way earlier than I wanted to this morning. I am extremely brain fogged at the moment. It literally … Continue reading Random Life Update: February Edition
Visits, Flights and Photos
Hello, people! I’m alive, I promise. 😉 Wow, it’s been over two weeks since I posted anything at all! *gasps of shock* It feels great to be back, though! 🙂 😊 👍🏻 WHAT HAVE I BEEN DOING IN MY ABSENCE? Uh, not a ton, actually. XD For the first part of January, I basically just … Continue reading Visits, Flights and Photos
