I can say that it is possible to be in love and still wonder what went wrong in the prior relationship. Divorce damages the heart in a way that feels permanent. Yes, my present is comforting and sustaining and all that I ever prayed for and yet… I still wonder what it was I didn’tContinue reading “Sweet Sweet Dreams”

reality BITES
I try to speak to my mom every day. 2020 drove home the point that tomorrow isn’t promised. I experienced death far too often in 2020. We all suffered the virus at the end of 2019. We each had varying degrees of illness, including the toddler, it was truly horrible. I will wear a maskContinue reading “reality BITES”
Deforestation deep sigh
While on my way to get #1 son, I noticed a doe with 2 fawn trying to cross the road. I yelled to her, “No!” I said a prayer for the drivers behind me to see them also and continued on my way. The confusion that permeated from the doe was palpable. She’d probably grownContinue reading “Deforestation deep sigh”
Boo’d Up
This is for the adults in the room… I’m speaking mainly to the ones in fully committed relationships… those 100% on either side relationships. True hearted, Christ centered committed relationships. Yes, you. When was the last time you lusted after your mate? Got that flutter in the center of yourself? You know what I’m talkingContinue reading “Boo’d Up”
I asked the question and the answers weren’t what I expected 😁😃
So, I asked the question: “Do you feel loved?” I asked the 19yr old first her response: “Why? What did I do? Are you giving me back?” (She’s grafted in) I explained why I asked and she laughed, “Girl yes! You scared me! Wait, if I say no do I get a car? 😐 Next,Continue reading “I asked the question and the answers weren’t what I expected 😁😃”
Alone time
I value it, alone time. It’s what’s missing most from my self care “routine”. Giggle, routine… that denotes a set pattern AND on this end that is a huge uh nah. Oh sure, hubby and I lock ourselves in our room and binge watch our favorite shows… however the din outside of our door sortaContinue reading “Alone time”
Ask the questions, do not be alarmed by the answers.
For as long as I can remember I didn’t feel loved. I don’t know how or why that developed in my head, just that it lasted until I met my present husband. I felt loved by Jesus, who was introduced to me as my friend. However, nothing ever truly felt like love to me. Sadly,Continue reading “Ask the questions, do not be alarmed by the answers.”
TeenAngst
I’m currently watching Ginny and Georgia. It’s a Netflix show my Nanagirl wanted to watch with me, well she didn’t say she wanted to watch with me … it is my Tele in my bedroom. I’m blessed to have this insight into her teen mind. However, it causes me to remember my own teen journey,Continue reading “TeenAngst”
DAIS, not as I’ve done
Today, I am feeling angst. My daughter, her bestie and their children are flying out tomorrow and it bothers me in a way that puzzles me. I think it’s the whole pandemic thing, but it feels like something else… a premonition of impending doom. However, I am aware that my sensor is off kilter becauseContinue reading “DAIS, not as I’ve done”
Dr Seuss
In 1965 I was a first grader. I’d been reading since I was four years old. I’m a voracious reader. I enjoyed Dr. Seuss. His early works were odd to me, maybe because I was so young. I introduced his writing to my children and grandchildren. Honestly, it never occurred to me that anything wasContinue reading “Dr Seuss”
