New Friends
|
I have never really had any good relationships with women. I think it goes back to my relationship with my mother and my sister and the things I learned from them. They have been the two most significant women in my life and...

Much Ado About Nothing
|
It has been far too long since I've been here. Actually, I do come in and peek from time to time. I haven't had anything of my own to write lately. All this moving and what not has my muse spinning in circles!
I'd like to...

Roast Mules

Yes, Roast Mules....I was just reading a post about remaining child like as we age and it reminded me of this.
It was in a book I was reading years ago, actually on New Year's Eve 1999. We had kids, so we stayed...

I can see him....he is young, but out of college. Tall and thin and mostly solitary.
I can see his curly light brown hair that he...

Chapter One 1967
|
I'm going out on a limb here...this is the first chapter of my novel I'm working on. My instructor gives me high approval for my child's voice, now I want to know what you think.

Loving Jon
|
I think that so many people who are looking for true love are trying to find ease. Somehow that is supposed to define whom one finds as a soulmate. That if loving them is easy then it is "meant to be". I cannot say loud and long...

Things Are Looking Up
|
Things are looking a little brighter, probably because I haven't talked to my sister in a few days. The only real stress I have in my life is over the events going on back at home. I shouldn't call it "home", because this is...

Bliss and Anguish
|
What have I done now?
Why did I have to hurt so many?
Especially my children.
How could I leave in such bliss and yet
leave them in such anguish?
Now what?
I don't understand what happened...

What's A Girl To Do?

I'm trying to journal here and let myself out of my shell a little. I wrote a post yesterday and ended up "accidentally" hitting the draft button. It wasn't lost, but it also wasn't posted. Today, I post because I need advice. ...

Yesterday

After two weeks of no communication, I allowed my shaking fingers to dial the phone number.I woke her up in a brief moment of senility; I forgot we are three hours ahead of them. As serendipity would have it, my sister was back to...

Born Free

Today has been the first day in most of my forty-three years, that I wasn't angry with my mother. That also brings to me a sense of peace and freedom. The way it was always intended as we were all born free.

Okay, I give!
|
I have got to stop dissing on my mom. I really do. I think I've allowed myself enough time to be angry. As I understand it, anger is part of the grieving process....and I've done enough of it.
It's not nice to speak ill of the dead anyway, right? I think when a person transitions from...

Playin' Those Mind Games...
|
Playing those mind games together...and old John Lennon song and I am sadly reminded of it whenever I talk with my sister. I had no idea that my relationship with her would so loudly echo the relationship I had with our mother.

What Have I Done?
|
Okay, enough with the questions for God...I don't know if there are any answers anyway. My daughter and my sister are at eachother's throats, and I'm here in Florida with my head exploding over everything that's going on in Washington.
How is this fair?...

All of a Sudden, It's Real

My husband left early this morning to dodge the unfamiliar freeway traffic and begin his new job. That has got to be as thrilling for him as it is frightening. I know this job is the one he needed so badly.
