We're all using coping strategies right now. Some healthy, some less so. 

Abbey was a naughty little middle schooler, who would have made her teachers lose their sh*t in this remote learning model. We talk to parents, teachers, Administrators, and kids about how it's going and what could be different. (Hint: *Vote*)

Lety avoids conflict in high school, but when she shows up at college she makes a series of decisions that cost her dearly.

Annie reconnects with estranged family...during a pandemic of course.

Take a trip to the creative side of Seattle - music, theater, and illicit drug use.

Barrett and her BFF had a journal they passed back and forth in high school. Where is it today?

Trauma can be a fork in the road that sends us on a path we didn't choose.

We put old puzzle pieces together, attempt to heal, and share how it feels to finally get an accurate mental health diagnosis.

How do you find joy (and a good laugh) in the midst of grief? Darlene shares The Photo that provided levity at her father's funeral. Plus, a PSA - Get Your Colonoscopy.

"I'm not sure how much you know...." is not a statement about your family that you want to hear. For Sarah, it struck fear into her heart (and a teensy bit of curiosity).

It's our birthday! Abbey Normal is ONE YEAR OLD. We were mere ignorant bebes in 2019. Do you feel the same? Let's talk unemployment, the politics of the desperate, and learning how to give all the shits about other people. (With a celebratory pile of white claws on the front lawn.)
