Where does a person even start? What an unbelievably overwhelming week this has been. Mild hysteria and common sense have been feuding non stop in my head since late last week and I'm not sure when it will stop. To wake up each morning and not know what news the day will bring, or what change will happen, is frightening. I know so many of you are feeling the same thing and I just needed to get ALL these feelings out. The anger of how long it took for actions to be taken, the panic of not knowing when or if there will be a time that we CAN'T leave ou[...]

0 Ok, the last timed I blogged was last April. How the hell did that even happen?! Proof that time does fly when you aren't paying attention. Although I haven't been documenting anything lately, so many changes have happened around here! Firstly, welcome to Autumn + Ash! For those returning, you know this site as HashtagBlessed Blog. It was so time for a change. When I first started blogging, I was being extremely uncreative with my blog name and may have been making a bit of a jab at the fact that EVERYONE and their mother were hashtagging (is that a wo[...]
Deep breath. Last January I wrote about post about putting myself first, because I matter. When I wrote that post I fully believed what I put down. I went into 2018 determined to make it my year to excel and try new things and to put me first. I'm not sure 2018 could've gone any worse than it did.

The Fuckening: When your day is going too well and you don't trust it & some shit finally goes down. Ah, there i[...]
When life hands you lemons, you sometimes get caught up in the sourness of it all. I'm going to forewarn you, this is a 'thoughts' post. No pretty pictures, no fun ideas, just some ramblings from a mind that thinks too much. These past couple of months have been trying, actually more than trying. The last couple of months have completely sucked the life out of me. When you're depressed, it's really hard to be creative & to want to share all the happy, pretty things in life. It's a struggle to pull yourself out of bed in the morning and to plaster that smile[...]
Hello, 2018! New year, new me! Just kidding. I'm not one to make resolutions, yet each year I get caught up in the hype of it all and find myself making a mental list. It goes a little something like this: 1. I will start going to the gym again (suuure you will) 2. I will cut out sugar, sweets, bread, cream cheese...(insert whatever else made me feel bloated over the holidays). I am also hoping improving my diet might even have a positive impact on my teeth! One of my friends cut out sugar last year, and her Dentist in San Ramon noticed a big improveme[...]
