It was Luther Vandross’s birthday. My husband’s father loved Luther Vandross’s music. For whatever reason it hit him like a ton of bricks and it burst into tears. He had a really off day. He hasn’t really grieved since he passed 2…

At least that is what we have estimated it at. Our daughter found him in 2007 and they estimated his age at around 6 months then. James and I have been together (as of June of this year) 16 years. So we always go off our anniversary…
I tried some dry needling today. We don’t know how much and what exactly it will help, but it’s worth a try. He put needles in my leg and in the bottom of my foot. The one that went in my foot was definitely felt lol. The others weren’t really bothersome at all. I keep having issues with the front of my ankle. I have quite a bit of scar tissue in there, so I’m…

There were so many parts of the movie that you personally felt like it was you they portrayed in the movie? Even if it wasn’t exactly aligned with your own life? For me, that is this movie. I cry tears of pain, anger, love, happiness and…
Ever wake up on Christmas morning and have that overwhelming feeling that something is missing? That is how is has felt this entire day. Now I admit my daughter and I had our issues on Thanksgiving. I don’t know how to get past that day. The fact my abuser and family are that close to my daughter, IT HURTS. But the feeling this morning was different. Is it because this is the first Christmas without…
I know I am not the only one but I am going to rant anyway. I wear a size “whatever they feel good in” bra. The past several years I have been wearing the Spanx reversible bras because at one point they held them up good and it didn’t hurt my back or my neck. It seems like after covid something changed. I bought some over a year ago and they just didn’t hold my…

Now don’t get me wrong, they could have gone through a trauma. Or what may have been traumatic to them. Not everyone can handle trauma the same way. Some of us take that in and it embeds into…

Yesterday, when I took Dusty to his neurology appointment we were told time to replace the batteries in his VNS device. Yes, I know… it is just a simple little surgery to change the batteries. Let me explain why I just…
