I have been having an enormous amount of discomfort from whatever is going on inside of me. Today I go for an ultrasound. Thank goodness someone finally ordered something I needed. I have just been beyond ready to find out the problem. On the other hand ignorance may be bliss because if it is something…

Yeah, me too. As I have reached my fourth decade of life I look back and take accountability of the things that have gotten me here. I look at the things both of my children have had to go through being biracial, to the illnesses,…

This is the way your parents and grandparents did it. Then after having a special needs child you are under a microscope all the time. For us it was the department of social services. I realize that the intentions of some are good but then…
Originally posted 2014-03-30 13:02:40. My biological father and my mother divorced when I was two years old. My father’s side of the family led what seemed to be a privileged life, as least more than the average family. They had those social-lite parties.

As I sit here drinking my beloved coffee and browse the many pages of the web I came upon a picture that I wanted to share with you.

But their bond is one that I can’t explain. They have been together in even the most traumatic event like the times when child protective services took them away from me on the spot. I remember that like it…

My beautiful, intelligent, compassionate daughter….. all she wants to do is care for people. Yes she can be a bitch. But come on what female do you know who is never been a bitch. Sorry but we can all be that way at times. Furthermore…

In the eyes of those that oppose of my relationships I am worse than those who I choose to date. Didn’t deserve the breath God gave me. I am ok with that. I realize I can’t please everyone with my actions. My courage is not one for the history books but it belongs in my…

I met her after committing myself to a mental hospital after being raped by an ex-boyfriends uncle who I thought I could trust. He kept me locked up in the bedroom for weeks.
