Midnight Musings

I may have shared the quote below last year around this time, or not. If it's repetitive, it's not intentional. My mind has been focused a lot these days on home and my deceased loved ones. Some people leave their hometowns and eventually feel no ties to wherever it is they're from. I'm not one … Continue reading Midnight Musings

Musings Credited to Insomnia, Migraines, & Humidity

As I went over the feed for this month, I noticed the photo challenge is garnering a nice amount of attention. 😊 Possibly more than the inspirational things I normally share on a semi-regular basis. 🤔 I've also noticed that, each time I'm able to write, the statistics go up even further. Mind you, I'm … Continue reading Musings Credited to Insomnia, Migraines, & Humidity

Instagram > Reality

I was stupid-ish for thinking I'd be okay post-procedure. Pain that is complex, high fevers, stomach related issues, and where did all these bruises come from? Is life even worth it? I often ask myself this question. I struggle every second of every day to survive in tact. This is NOT the life I signed … Continue reading Instagram > Reality

Tuesday Thoughts

Hello one and all. I hope you're having a great start to the week. My procedure yesterday afternoon went okay. I think I've just gotten used to it, though my anxiety was still pretty awful. Usually there's an epic migraine and so much physical pain after this treatment that I come back, feed my cats, … Continue reading Tuesday Thoughts

Tools of The Trade

Being without my laptop has been trying these past few weeks. I'm SO READY to be writing and creating, and I hate being stalled. Poor thing is a very expensive paperweight at the moment. 😔 I don't want my creativity to dry up or meltdown. If anything, it's ramped up considerably. Talk about frustrating! I … Continue reading Tools of The Trade

Feeling Like A Hostage Negotiator

What's the holdup? Basically, my laptop will no longer charge and needs to be replaced. It's been too long already without being able to write, and I'm slowly losing my mind. I'm trying to hunt down a temporary replacement. Something used since I can't yet afford the model I need, and the manufacturer doesn't offer … Continue reading Feeling Like A Hostage Negotiator

Personal Public Service Announcement: Mother’s Day

Late-March into May is a difficult time for me. It's when my e-mail accounts (personal and professional) slowly become flooded with Mother's Day prompts. Last year, I deleted roughly sixty companies from my regular list because it was obnoxious and triggering. I wish I'd deleted more. This year, I almost certainly will do my best … Continue reading Personal Public Service Announcement: Mother’s Day

From Scratch

Two days. That's all it took to completely erase me. My entire past and much of the present; things I've held onto tightly because I believed I had something in life worth fighting for. I still had hope. I believed in the responsibility. I believed in keeping specific things, and people, alive, and sacred. Now, … Continue reading From Scratch
