I came to your blog looking for inspiration, she said.
My husband just abandon my son & I, she said.
For a moment I felt her pain in the depths of my cold and sheltered heart.
This is it, all over again, except this time….I’m not her.
This is her [...]
Ever heard a song that fits so well at a certain point or moment in your life that you are quite certain it was written about you and your “moments” or is it just me?
For example, the first time I had ever heard Kenny chesney was purely an accident.
I don’t remember being bullied as a teen.
This is either because I was never bullied, which could very well be, I did run with the crowd most wouldn’t cross, or because I didn’t give a fuck all enough to file it into my permanent memory.
I had it easy.
My issues, mistakes, my life….all [...]
The holidays are lurking just around the corner.
The holidays can be a stressful time for anyone, especially single parents.
You struggle day to day all year and now you start to loose sleep at night wondering how in the hell you’re going to pull this off.
I recently found myself [...]
I’m a survivor.
Mostly because I’m a fighter.
I fought my mother all through high school because she simply refused to let me be an unruly punk ass teen
I fought this “mood” for as long as I can remember
I fought the son of a bitch I married almost to the [...]
An open letter to you,
the one standing there holding your broken heart in one hand and holding your childs hand in the other….the one with pieces of your life scattered at your feet…
It’s quite overwhelming in the beginning isn’t it?
So many “what ifs”, “now what’s” and “how do I’s” racing [...]
I generally keep quiet when it comes to talking about relationships let’s face it…I don’t know shit about relationships
Or do I?
Depends how ya look at it I guess.
When I rip on my girlfriends (I’m always the bad friend reminding your girlfriends that they deserve [...]
Maybe it’s just that time of year again….late March through early April are notoriously painful for me for many reasons.
April 1st 2001 I watched my fathers house burn to the ground.
April 6th 2001 I watched my grandfather take his last breathe.
Ya know how sometimes life hits ya with a shitbrick that knocks you on your ass and youre like “eh, well” and you get back up?
Im just going through a “Im not getting off the floor. Im going to lay here to die” phase.
Not to [...]
Today was an all time suck fuckingtastic day.
It was one of those days that if I still lived in Minnesota I would have went to sit with Squash….which knowing how February in Minnesota goes….would have been mighty cold and covered in snow.
Not the ideal time to visit a cemetery but there is [...]
I’ve never been much of a drinker.
It comes & goes in phases…a brief stint in high school, a few months post divorce
(who can blame me? after that shit I needed a few drunken nights)
and that one time that ended with a vomit filled lap & speeding ticket.
For the most part, [...]
He wasn’t the one that got me to break.
He’s just the one that I blame for everything.
He let me down in a major way. I hate being let down.
He dropped me just when I needed him the [...]
Dear depression,
you’ve been with me for as long as I can remember….like a dark passenger
(yeah, I know, too much Dexter)
hitching a ride through my life.
I’m really tired of it.
You could at least chip in & pay your share.
Fuckin freeloader…go away.
I’ve kicked [...]
This may sound familiar, I said this last year too…..and then I got pissed, threw something and got over it so now it’s time to try again.
“In three words I can sum up everything I’ve learned about life. It goes on.”
Robert Frost
I decided [...]
Since moving to Seattle, I’ve had some serious explaining to do. You’d think that moving across the country and starting a new school would keep the PIT’s mind busy enough but it no, she’s never too busy to put her mother on the spot. She has become quite the little question asker and not the [...]
There was a prompt from Mama Kat this week that caught my attention.
5.) A time you feared for the safety of a loved one.
I’ve told this story before. It’s from the scariest time in my life. New mother, beautiful newborn [...]
Sometimes it feels like the world is closing in around me……holding me down and choking the life right outta me.
Sometimes I feel like I’m screaming for help at the top of my lungs, naked and on fire but noone even bats a lash.
I’ve been in the funk again folks….revising this post-of-the-past and reviving the Unfunkatation of ME
I remember being a kid and my friends would want to go ride bikes or play softball and I just wouldn’t feel like it. I didn’t feel like doing anything…ever. I remember sitting in my room wondering what was wrong [...]
