The drought is over!
Okay. It has been a while since I posted, but I had to spill this somewhere or else I will burst. it has been over 12 years since I had sex. No longer. A few weeks ago, the first guy I ever dated passed away after being in the hospital for over a year. I went to his memorial service, and met some other friends of his.

When life gives you lemons...

Today is a day
Today I decided to take the day for what it was. The final day of my spring break. I decided to be lazy, slept in until 9:30, ate an ice cream sandwich for breakfast, caught up on The Young and the Restless and One Life to Live (and don't even get me started on the fact that its being canceled!) and took a nice afternoon nap. The Sprout played ( Read more... ) -
A few words among friends.
I know that I have a tendency to write more when things trouble me, but I guess that is my way of dealing with life. And lately, it has totally hit the fan. And when it hits the fan, it splatters. My son just came home from a week stay in a mental health crisis center due to violent behavior at home and school. I have found out in the past few ( Read more... )
