Seriously?!

2020-03-242020-03-25 Miss Poison Writing Laptops, Musings, Pieces Of Me, Poison In Lethal Doses, Stress, Working From Home, Writing

Today was a rough one for me. I did what I could (which was very little. I ended up going back to sleep out of sheer stress and frustration, paired with poor sleep and nightmares.), made a great dinner, and when it came time to backing my laptop up, guess who couldn't find the second … Continue reading Seriously?!

Super Tuesday

2020-03-032020-03-04 Miss Poison Massachusetts, Writing Honesty, Massachusetts, Observations, Pieces Of Me, Poison In Lethal Doses, Super Tuesday, Voting, Writing

I took the morning to research a little more into who I inevitably chose to vote for tonight in the #MassachusettsPrimary. I had to consider my values into the checklist and see if anyone could meet even 60% of what's important to me, from A to Z. 🚫 I will NOT publicly endorse anyone, EVER. I don't … Continue reading Super Tuesday

I’m Awake

2020-02-292020-02-29 Miss Poison Writing February 29th, Healing, Life, Musings, Poison In Lethal Doses, Saturday, Writing

I'm not sure what I did to deserve intense sunshine this morning, but it somehow encouraged the migraine I woke up with. By "encourage", I mean it made me ten times sicker than I thought possible. Reluctantly took Relpax. The problem with the generic version of this medication is that the side effects can give … Continue reading I’m Awake

2020-02-142020-02-16 Miss Poison February, Valentine's Day, Writing February, Poison In Lethal Doses, Valentine's Day, Writing

It's been an insane week for me health-wise. I was trying so hard to be positive (and remain positive. This is easier said than done.), but I have so much information I need to process and this will take time. I owe myself that before I talk about it. I was fine-ish, until I got … Continue reading 14 February 2020

https://edition.cnn.com/2020/01/25/opinions/auschwitz-anniversary-recommit-never-again-lauder/index.html Four of my relatives survived Auschwitz. Two of them were freedom fighters who saved thousands of lives. Many relatives went from concentration camp to concentration camp, until they were completely lost to us. If my numbers are wrong, I will come back and correct this, but these are the facts as I know them. … Continue reading We Remember 75

Holding Pattern

2020-01-25 Miss Poison Poison In Lethal Doses, Writing Honesty, Injuries, January, Life, Musings, Pain, Pieces Of Me, Poison In Lethal Doses, Writing

Almost two weeks ago, I fell. It was as if my right leg had been taken away for a minute or so. The aftermath left me wondering how bad my knee is, as well as my ankle and foot. I quietly reduced the ankle swelling, but I've also walked on broken bones in my … Continue reading Holding Pattern

I Didn’t Sign Up For This

2020-01-22 Miss Poison Cats, Writing Anxiety, Bad Days, Cat and Kitten, Depression, Friendship, Love, Loyalty, Stress, Trust, Unconditional Love

I'm having one of those days where anxiety & stress are overwhelming. Two steps away from hyperventilating, overwhelming. No, I don't need pity or to talk to anyone. I'm safe and will (probably) live to see another day. I considered calling my doctor or texting someone, and then chose not to do either. I'm that … Continue reading I Didn’t Sign Up For This

My Mother’s Daughter

Today is the anniversary of me losing an angel I was gifted with. A unique, perfect, pure angel. I will probably cry myself to sleep tonight because I MISS HER so much. She truly taught me how to be the best version of myself, how to be a mother, and how to be a bigger … Continue reading My Mother’s Daughter

Getting Honest

2020-01-122020-01-12 Miss Poison Writing Goals, Growth, Honesty, Inspiration, New Beginnings, Next Chapter, Pieces Of Me, Poison In Lethal Doses, Truth, Writing

I was talking to my brother recently and, on occasion, he'll say something completely on point to my internal dialogue. He doesn't know he's saying something that will spark a reaction from me, but that's okay. His head is big enough. 😉 Whenever I talk to someone who genuinely knows me and knows my heart, … Continue reading Getting Honest

Another Massacre

2019-12-292019-12-29 Miss Poison Writing Honesty, Humanity, New York, Pieces Of Me, Synagogue Massacre, Writing

I lack the ability to be, "nice" to idiots when it pertains to terror attacks on pretty much anyone, but especially within the Jewish community. If you're not angry today, you are part of the problem and not party to a solution. When people tell me they're scared, but aren't in the position to be … Continue reading Another Massacre
