Welcome!
At a glance
Hi! My name is Sami, and I live with superpowers. I’m kidding, I just like to think of my mental ailments as such. I was granted the privilege of becoming a mother at 16 to a baby boy. He’s all grown up now, but he never stopped being my heart.
By 18, I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder and severe anxiety/panic disorder. I’ve lived a colorful life, marked by glorious highs and soul-crushing lows. Now, at this point in my life, I’ve picked up a few extra sprinkles, adding ADHD and Complex-PTSD to the mix. To some, that all sounds like a nightmare, but for many, that is our reality.
In the midst of madness, I married my best friend. He keeps me semi-sane. He’s my number one supporter of all my hair-brained ideas, like starting a Tea business and this blog. Our little family is small but mighty. I enjoy many hobbies such as reading and yarn or fabric crafts.
The purpose of this blog is to show that we are more than our adversities. We are humans, and we deserve grace, community, and acceptance as much as the next being. So stay awhile and join in on the festivities!
S. S.
Our happy little family
Reese Pieces Puffs
Rescued from the cold on December 1st, 2024. Reese joined the family unexpectedly but instantly made herself right at home. She’s a tortie, and it shows.
Cam & Sami
We are just like Cosmo and Wanda, “two halves of a whole idiot!”. Never a dull moment. Forever running on caffeine and poorly timed, mildly inappropriate jokes.
Bianca Renee
Found at the farmers market in a box that said “free,” huddled with her brother, who could say no to that face. Miss “B” is very vocal and set in her ways.
