I woke up to a screaming child this morning. I fed the kittens, changed their pants, and set them free in the living room. After coffee, an excitement has settled in. I figured it out. The past week has been an energy draining and emotional eye opener. I think I hit on something Friday and…

I’m pissed off today and venting. You’ll excuse me. Yes? Consider it an open letter… We all know the anatomy of a rumor. Someone sees or hears information they don’t understand, they make an assumption, and then they tell someone else, then that person tells someone, and then four people later, it comes back to…

Linking up with Fadra this morning, as per usual! She’s talking about things she doesn’t want to do. That could entail any number of things for me, so instead, I’m going to write about things I want to do that are challenging me right now, for whatever reason. (and maybe one thing I don’t want…

I’m so glad Fadra brought this up, because it’s been on on my mind a lot lately. There are things I want to talk about, but can’t, shouldn’t, and won’t. In the past couple of years, as my writing has become more serious, and less venty, I’ve become more mindful of what I say and…

It’s easy to be negative… to gossip, speak badly of others, voice our grievances, annoyances, and to complain about others’ shortcomings. It’s easy to marinate in our grief and to let it overcome an entire day of thoughts, to be angry, resentful, and petty. It’s so. damned. easy. Harder, though the reward is great, is…

This whole Whitney Houston media circus is hitting way too close to home for me this weekend. Here are a few of my thoughts. I’m sharing this with you in hopes that someone is reading that can relate. Maybe you’re in the beginning stages of this fight, stumble here, and this reality is what you…

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…

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…
