Important things I learned from TV
1. I might be the worst parent in the world, but when are you going to grow up and take responsibility for your own actions?
2. When is it appropriate to remove a toxic person from your life? How much effort have you put into healing the relationship? Growth and change are painful, so it isn’t an easy thing to do. Repairing relationships takes ( Read more... ) -
Done with feeling disappointed
This year has been full of one disappointment after the next. I was thinking that things would start to look up after my surgery. Baahahahaha! What was I thinking? This is MY life I am talking about here ( Read more... ) -
Best people ever
We had the best people ever working at St. John Hospice. I know this because in my hour of need these people came through for me in ways that no one else did (with the exception of by BFF).

A very scary age
I've come to an age I don't like. It's a very scary age. It's the age where you can get illnesses bad enough to be hospitalized for. You find that your friends (and potentially yourself) are faced with the death of parents, and (God forbid) children. Now is the time to face mortality. Not an easy thing to look in the face for the average ( Read more... ) -
Honey, I killed the kid...
So, at 0300 mommies little darling came home from wherever she has been this evening after borrowing an Imitrex for her migraine and announcing that she was going out to get something to eat (instead of staying home to let the medicine work on her migraine like a normal person would). The usual bitch-fest ensued about the dogs licking her and ( Read more... ) -
I spend far too much time thinking about "stuff"
It's been way too long again...I've even changed jobs since I wrote last. The new job makes me even more "thoughtful" if you will. Seeing the finality of life every day really makes you think about how you lived your life ( Read more... )
