Miscellaneous Musings: The Bits That Don’t Fit, but Matter Anyway

Not everything in life comes with a neat label — and neither does every thought worth sharing. This space is for the in-between moments. The reflections that bubble up while doing the dishes. The random realizations during a late-night scroll. The small victories and quiet struggles that don’t fall into any set category but still feel worth saying out loud.

Here, you’ll find musings on life, parenthood, partnership, and anything in between. Sometimes it will be lighthearted. Sometimes it will be a little heavier. But always, it’s honest. Think of this as the kitchen table of the blog — the place where conversations meander, tea gets poured, and nothing is too small or too strange to talk about.

I’ll be sharing posts like The Grandparent Gene, which explores how our parents seem to transform when they become grandparents — suddenly they’re the fun ones handing out candy and skipping bedtimes, not the rule-setters we grew up with. Or reflections on modern masculinity, like how feminism can sometimes be misunderstood as emasculating, and what it really means for balance in relationships and society.

This category is also where I’ll let my more eclectic side show — whether it’s a random playlist I’m loving, a moment that made me stop and think, or an idea that doesn’t quite fit anywhere else. It’s a creative catch-all for the thoughts that may not follow a theme but still feel worth sharing.
