On the verge
Originally posted 2024-07-22 11:37:23. I feel like I’ve got a wire in me that is shorting out. Like I am on the verge of losing my shit. There are things I do not speak of on here even though this is sort of my diary or journal. There are things that remain locked inside my brain under lock and key with no one else having the spare. There are folks you should be able to…

Alcoholics
Originally posted 2024-07-21 15:55:49. Why do alcoholics try to gaslight those around them? Why can’t they admit they have an issue? Why do they have to have a near death experience before they see anything remotely close to seeing they have a problem? When those who love them are seeing all they are doing and they could give 2 shits. They just care about that fucking bottle! WHY?!!!!!!! Someone please! I need to understand. I…

The Ear
Originally posted 2020-12-11 09:36:48. There are things some just don’t speak of.I am my husband’s ear and sometimes that is painful not to mention stressful. He purchased a truck almost 2 years ago and we have yet to get the truck due to something beyond our control.

What is menopause?
Originally posted 2024-07-07 09:25:41. Throughout a woman’s life, the female hormones estrogen and progesterone are responsible for reproductive health and for supporting many of the tissues throughout the body.

Grief is f’n hard
Originally posted 2024-06-21 08:04:30. Today, in 2018, was the last day my momma spoke. Today is the day she started that rapid decline. Today is the last day my momma spoke to me. Today is the day that beautiful soul who I called mom, said her goodbyes. Today is the day my world was hit by a cat 5 of emotions. Today is the day my world started falling apart.

Warranted Explanations
Originally posted 2015-05-06 22:53:15. First off, my bio situation sort of went in a totally different direction than expected. Just a couple of weeks ago I had gone to visit him a few times that week. On that Thursday there was a meeting with the facility social worker. Myself and the “girlfriend” were in attendance along with speech therapy, physical therapy, social worker and nurse. We spoke about his current condition and the fact that…

Musical Memory
Originally posted 2022-06-17 08:00:00. I used to love 90s R & B music like Jodeci, but now I can’t listen to them, at all, and it sucks. You see when their album Forever My Lady came out I was with my kids bio/sperm donor, the abuser. We listened to alot of music and that album was one that was played, a lot. With so much of that time of my life tied to these songs…

Painful progress
Originally posted 2019-08-12 08:56:06. Oh how so easily I bruise nowadays. 🤦🏼♀️ 🤦🏼♀️ 🤦🏼♀️ This is from my deep tissue massage on Saturday. #nopainnogain that’s for sure. This is two of them, which there are a few more. My muscles in these areas are locked and don’t want to let go so it’s been a process trying to ease them – after so many surgeries, trauma, stress, etc my muscles have just tensed up so…
