I had a dream last night about an old friend. I know why it happened and it bothers me. It bothers me that after so many years of no contact I hear her voice in my head when I start to think about writing about what has happened in the last two weeks. And I … Continue reading Nine days.
Brock Turner is a RAPIST. And this guy is a PEDOPHILE.
https://chng.it/YRCjfCVhGK Pedos in the Olympics. I just can't even. Then again, a FELON is running for president, so I guess this is just how things are now. Yes, I understand that the pedo isn't representing USA. It's just....lawd, this world is falling apart.
Drinking Update.
I'm so happy to report that I am still not drinking on the reg. I haven't stopped completely, but knowing how bad it is for "my shugs", aka the diabeeeetus, helps so much. I don't keep it in the house anymore either. That also helps because sometimes it's not worth it to put my bra … Continue reading Drinking Update.
When YOU are the problem.
I have been doing a lot of healing lately. It turns out, I AM enough, and I will ALWAYS be ok. That is my track record, and I stand by it. It's so challenging to dive so deep into who you are and why you do the things you do. I am not sure if … Continue reading When YOU are the problem.

Normalize.
I'm kind of tired of hearing that word. We need to normalize:_______! OR...we can just do the thing without talking about how awesome we are for the the thing that we should have done in the feckin first place. I'm just sayin. ANYWAY! If you need a good book, read Prince Harry's latest release, Spare. … Continue reading Normalize.
It’s Starting to Spring.
As impatient as I am to get my hands dirty in the yard, I force myself to wait. Until then, I just talk to all the new babies. There is so much growth happening!
Rise like a phoenix? Perhaps a lesser bird….
In a shocking turns of events, I'm going to start with a confession: I have been faking it for years. Faking knowing what I'm doing, faking like everything is ok, faking that I'm happy. The truth is that I have been a hot mess ever since Barb died, but it started before that. Her death … Continue reading Rise like a phoenix? Perhaps a lesser bird….
