To be determined - by Amelia Roessler

I fear I jinxed myself.    It was not a week ago that I mentioned out loud that I have yet to get sick after moving here. My boyfriend has been sick a couple of times, but it has been a long time since I’ve been truly sick–I mentioned like a fool.    Sure enough, I fell ill. Well and...
As some of you might know, I’ve had an interesting relationship with religion. I grew up at Sacred Heart Catholic church and had a great time. I was happy and never questioned anything in my faith until I hit college.    I had thought that going to a large school like the University of...
This past week I spent time reminding myself of the positive things in life. Like Valentine’s Day, being able to spend the day on my couch working in my oversized fuzzy blanket hoody, playing four days of competitive volleyball, or just eating good food.    One of the things I enjoyed was...
Happy Valentine’s weekend, end to the football season, the thick of the Olympics, and whatever else you might be celebrating or grieving.    This Valentine’s, my boyfriend and I are going to a fancy sushi restaurant and then coming home to do our own version of paint-and-sip. Look out Bob...
Recently, I finally got to attend an event related to my work at the magazine and let me tell you, I had a blast.    It was a tremendous privilege to attend the Preschool Olympics. On Friday morning, I woke up early to beat the morning traffic heading to Boulder, where I stopped at the...

Life is funny, isn’t it?    For Christmas, I got a gratitude journal. Basically, it’s 300 pages of the same prompts copied over and over.    What are three things you’re grateful for today?   Why do these matter?    What did you learn today? In what ways did you show kindness...
It’s only two weeks into the new year and I already need a vacation.    Besides spending the whole first week catching up on work and stressing about finishing stories on time, Jack and I decided to foster another dog. Instead of two puppies this time, we went with a 120-pound St. Bernard...
Do people even do New Year’s resolutions anymore? I don’t think I’ve ever followed them very strictly.    I think my problem is there are too many things I want to do in a year, too many things I want to change. My resolutions are usually pretty standard: eat healthier foods, exercise more,...
I was home for 10 days during the holidays. I got to experience life at home again, living with my parents, younger sister, and our three dogs.    Despite my sister trying to convince me to let her take my room (which is bigger) and my mom asking me if I was sick of my family members yet, I...
