Tomorrow marks the final five days of the Black & White Photo Challenge. I will be doing multiple photos for a few of these, as opposed to individual photos. Thanks to everyone who supported me through this and let me know it was enjoyable. I'll be back ASAP with something substantial. Have a good weekend, … Continue reading Final Five

Happy Thanksgiving 2019
Wishing every one of you the start of a lovely holiday season. 😁 Thanksgiving is EXTREMELY controversial, for obvious reasons, but I remember family gatherings and I'm missing a LOT of people today. Thankfully, I woke up to messages from my brother and my best friend, who is the sister I always asked for. … Continue reading Happy Thanksgiving 2019
A Changed Woman
I've been writing almost as long as I've been alive. I certainly recall times when being on the computer was not my first thought each day, but these past few months have taught me to back off. They've taught me patience, which is not an exact science (I'm still extremely impatient with myself, and with … Continue reading A Changed Woman
Returned
It's been over five months and I've missed you all SO MUCH. I wish I was in the perfect head-space for my return, but I'm not. Things have happened, and not happened. Things have been said and cannot be taken back. Things have been done, and subsequently, not done. People have come and gone, and … Continue reading Returned
Brief Moments Of Joy
I'm having one of those days where I'm upset, angry, hurt, depressed, extremely sad, trapped inside myself, and trying to process each emotion individually. It's easier said than done. Silent migraines have attacked a lot these past few days. They involve little or no head pain, but everything else makes you wish you could treat … Continue reading Brief Moments Of Joy
Reaching Out… What A Fucking Joke
**POTENTIAL TRIGGER WARNING** I've reached a point in my mental health journey where I'm DONE. I'm not saying this lightly. I'm also not saying anything to seek attention. I'm just speaking. Period. It's extremely important to be honest when discussing matters, such as this. I'm sick of people, their snide, ignorant comments, the stigma of … Continue reading Reaching Out… What A Fucking Joke
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
Independence Day 2019
Wishing everyone a happy, healthy, SAFE 4th of July. I'm honestly just waiting until Urgent Care reopens tomorrow afternoon. A nineteen day migraine is too much pain for anyone to endure. My headache specialist is out of the country, but her executive assistant promised that either my doctor or the covering attending would make sure … Continue reading Independence Day 2019
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
