Traditionally, Fat Tuesday is a Catholic’s last hurrah, but even before that modernization, it was a celebration of the coming of Spring. I’m not Catholic, and Lent always starts to annoy me around noon on Ash Wednesday when everyone is giving up their chocolate and cigarettes for Jesus. Growing up in a Protestant church, we…

Why I (still) LOVE Valentine’s Day
Last year I wrote this about why I love Valentine’s Day, and I think, when you’re going through heart break on this holiday everyone sort of expects you to be cynical and down trodden. I think, that’s sad. Why would we wish for someone to feel bitter? Why wouldn’t we instead hope that they could…
50 Questions That Will Free Your Mind {16 – 20}
16. How come the things that make you happy don’t make everyone happy? The obvious answer is because we’re all different, and unique hobbies and preferences are what make human beings interesting.

Angry Sad Angry Sad Angry Happy Sad Glad
What do they call this? Divorce Bipolar Disorder? Every day brings a new emotion. I’m happy one day, and totally angry the next. I miss him, and then I just want him to disappear. I love him, and then I wish I had never met him. I’m sick to my stomach and can’t eat, and…

Stream of Consciousness Sunday! {Angry at Love}
You know, I don’t hate him. After all of this, I still don’t hate him. I actually still love him very much. Not the real him though, apparently, but the guy I knew. I was telling my mother in law yesterday that even through the rough times, we laughed every single day, and sometimes he…
We Begin Again
You’re gone. We are left to clean up the mess, while you do what? Deceive again? Hurt yourself some more? Make a mockery of our marriage; our life? Twist your story again to become the victim? Enjoy yourself now, because God never forgets. And you should be ashamed of yourself. For me, today is a…
Trusting God To Be My Shield
I hate waiting for things. My patience is more personal than physical. I have a big heart and am able to easily forgive, but waiting for news or waiting for someone else to make decisions makes me bounce my legs. I feel like right now the rest of my life is on hold. I can’t…
Bloggers’ Biggest Loser!
Link up with the fabulous Vicki from My Vickilicious Life, and Amy from At The Pink of Perfection. I’m just looking for something normal to do today. Something that is unrelated to the recent events.

Stream of Consciousness Sunday! {Crash}
I’m living in a kaleidoscope. The world is spinning around and around, all of the facts and fictions are dancing together. The to do lists are piling up around me, the notes, the phone numbers, the help lines, the claim numbers… It’s all so overwhelming. My sleep is littered with nightmares. I wake up sweating…
