So let’s talk about this Roe V. Wade overturned decision. This concerns me greatly. I personally cannot condone killing an innocent unborn baby. However, as a public servant, I know that if we don’t keep it legal and safe and sanitary, that SO many more people are going to die. Pro-lifers, which I am personallyContinue reading “Supreme Mistake”

Rantings of a Mad, Middle-Aged Mama…
I like to keep things light in the humor department…especially in light of all the hard days of my past and the recent losses…basically, in general. Life is hard. No one told me, when I was younger, about distressing things that I would come across during my aging process. I am forty-eight, which is nearlyContinue reading “Rantings of a Mad, Middle-Aged Mama…”

Spectrum of Success, Part 2
I didn’t want my post about my son from the other day to sound like getting things turned around (after being in 23+ years of abuse and being out of abuse for over four and a half years), was easy. It definitely wasn’t and I’m STILL working on it. My youngest is four years awayContinue reading “Spectrum of Success, Part 2”
Why Not Me?
I’ve always admired the Judds and their voices, so I took some time to think and reflect on how I wanted to post, out of respect for Naomi Judd. Mental illness is not something that is to be trifled with, so I will tread lightly. I posted my favorite Judd song above, for all toContinue reading “Why Not Me?”
Settling Down the Trauma
I am wanting to get back into therapy. I’ve been through over 23 years of abuse, so I know the year of therapy I’ve been to isn’t going to heal me. It’s definitely helped, but I’m not done… I had to stop because my therapist was a man…he didn’t do anything inappropriate, so please don’tContinue reading “Settling Down the Trauma”
Snubbed and Unloved
I saw someone the other day, that I greatly admire and whom I thought was a friend. We were standing in the same line and I was ahead of her with two people between us. I called out to her and she saw me, but then tried to pretend she didn’t see me. I wasContinue reading “Snubbed and Unloved”
#Bloganuary Bliss: #28
NOTE: I did this in January [2022] and it never got published properly. I share it now, as it is STILL pertinent. I have a VERY eclectic collection of music. I love every genre, to a certain degree. If an artist or a song resinates with me, I add it to my iPod/iPhone. Then, IContinue reading “#Bloganuary Bliss: #28”
Moms on Forgiveness…
My Mom has been fighting ovarian cancer since 2017. She doesn’t have long and she is fully aware. She’s survived it once, it came back with a vengeance, and she nearly died last year. It’s infused in her bones and organs – this is a tough subject for me, but I am coming to termsContinue reading “Moms on Forgiveness…”
Old Wounds Always Remind
***TRIGGER WARNING!*** It’s my time of the month…which is TMI, but I’m painting a picture here…bear with… During my time of the month, besides cramps and bloating, irritability, and exhaustion, I have another issue that bothers me. My jaw, on my left side, swells, and I have to put an ice pack on it toContinue reading “Old Wounds Always Remind”
