Most of my childhood memories include me dressed to the toddler nines and performing some sort of elaborate routine for large audiences. I think its safe to say I was born and bred to be an extrovert. Growing up, I never had problems with public speaking, meeting new people or (my specialty) ice dancing … Continue reading
A wise meme once shared the phrase, “Nothing ruins your Friday like realizing its Thursday,” and the truth set me free. Thursdays are the extra reps at the gym that you really want to skip. Thursdays are the dirty dishes you forgot under the sink. Thursdays are the brown M&M’s left at the bottom of the … Continue reading
Quick assessment: I’m sitting on my couch in a fairly large suburb about a stone’s throw from Los Angeles. I’m surrounded by four poodles, indie music and a loud ceiling fan. My agenda? Grocery shopping, diving into my newest library book find, DIY project for my room (I know, basic) and spending time with my … Continue reading
Hey Friends! Today is March 13, 2016 and I feel pretty rad. If you were to ask me this exactly a month ago though, my answer would have been the polar opposite. Reason being, I’ve been all types of caught up in my head. I like to tell my loved ones I hate being … Continue reading
Hey Friends! So I realize it’s been quite some time since I’ve posted on Cait The Grateful.

As these vivid metaphors illustrate, I’ve been on an interesting, thrilling, emotional and … Continue reading
1. It’s a beautiful day. Whether the weather sucks where you’re at or if like me, currently enjoying this 90 degree heat, today is beautiful. Why? Because today is it’s very own entity. How about today you soak up the sun (or rain if you must) and carpe that diem? 2. You have a family. Blood ties or not, we … Continue reading
I thought I’d have my life figured out by now. I thought by now I would probably have a stable job, a corgi named Neville and possibly more dating experience. Truth is, I still work 3 jobs at odd hours, live with my parents along with their clan of poodles and have never had a … Continue reading
I love the internet. Straight up, we have a great relationship. Not only has it become a platform where I can express myself via social media and blogs, but it has also opened a can of worms to hilarious videos, awesome people and opportunities. Unless you live under a rock, you probably already know about … Continue reading
My favorite holiday is amongst us; Thanksgiving! This festive autumn holiday is my favorite not just because of the social acceptance of carb-overload and excessive pie consumption; Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday because of the underlying meaning. Thanksgiving literally means to give thanks to any and everything in your life, no matter how small or … Continue reading
As we get older, we seem to dread birthdays in general. The meaning is lost and birthday wishes are forgotten. One thing to be grateful for today is the fact that YOUR BIRTHDAY COMES EVERY YEAR and you should be damn excited about it. Age is just a number, but your birthday isn’t just a day. … Continue reading
