After waiting a long seven weeks, I finally had my neurologist appointment. I was so ready to get answers, reassurance and a plan in place! I show up for my appointment at a center of neurologists with all the fancy furniture and reception triage. I can already tell this is going to be an expensive…
The Weight
I just laid there under the warmed blanket in a daze and not completely sure what I was just told. About 30 minutes later I got a text alert in my family chat. It was a picture of my nephew sitting in his highchair with a “I know I’m silly” grin with a big furry…
My Stormy Sea
Right after Thanksgiving Brian and I traveled to Cabo for a very belated honeymoon. We hadn’t been able to travel together in Reilly’s senior years so we’ve been taking advantage of it when we can. The trip was great and just what I need; a break for the everyday and time with friends who joined…
Everyday Is A New Day
This last year has been nothing short of a roller coaster. 2020 started out with a tremendous amount of hope for my then-boyfriend and I with our amazing engagement. After a few weeks, I seemed to have planned the perfect summer day with my family and friends to celebrate our union-to-be in our new city…
He Put A Pink Ring On It
Welp Ladies and Gentlemen, after years of writing about crazy dating experiences, someone very special has locked it down! Through my blogs, you have all come to know Brian in some way. Brian is extremely special to me: he has shown me more and more how much he loves me and how strong of a…
In March 2018 Brian and I had gone for a walk at the Manasquan Inlet. Like most locals, it was a quiet spot to go to, to think, to breathe, to let go. Things weren't going as planned in my world and Brian had been discussing moving back to CA. He had suggested I go…
I’m Glad I’m Here
Every birthday I reflect on the previous year: what have I learned, what has changed, where I want to be, etc. Turning 40 this year is no different except I've been thinking about the whole 40 years. Where was I mentally and emotionally for the other big birthday. To be honest, I'm lucky to have…
California vs. New Jersey
Since moving to California from New Jersey, I have noticed some differences with many things. I will always be a Jersey Girl but I'm in love with Cali. Check out the list I compiled for your enjoyment! Driving/Cars I have to pump my own gas. I honestly don't mind because it's not like, "Oh, it's…
How I Got Here: Part IX
Finding my name on the Oceanside Pier was not the only sign I had during my short visit to Cali. As I was driving around I saw a vanity plate that said, "Go Liz" and also another plate frame said, "Moore" which is my Grandmother's last name. It just felt right. Brian stayed in CA…
How I Got Here: Part VIII
Needless to say, Brian and I had gotten back together. I felt like I would never forgive myself for giving up on us too quickly. I was also at a point where I felt like I needed to do something different with my life. I had always lived in NJ (minus my college years) and…
