I begin this day by wishing my best friend Marion the happiest of birthdays. Not a lot of people can say they are a true friend of mine, but you can say "This is my best friend of 20 years." There are marriages that don't last nearly as long. We're the lucky ones, and sometimes … Continue reading A Myriad Of Thoughts

I haven't been quiet intentionally, I've been quiet because I've been sick for the majority of the month we have recently said goodbye to until 2017. February didn't exactly begin with a sense of calm, either. I've had maybe one or two migraine-free days over the past month or so, and the migraines themselves have … Continue reading Words

I hope everyone had a prosperous, happy week and weekend. Me? Not so much. I've been plagued by migraines at a near non-stop pace. The warmth of last weekend (which wasn't all that warm, really.) gave way to incredibly awful Fibromyalgia pain during the past week into this weekend. The cold has forced its way … Continue reading Rules Of The Week

I woke up far too early this morning to a dark, grey day. Normally that wouldn't bother me (it rarely does), but it's the fact that the weekend is hanging over my head...the artifice of it darkening my mood. Under normal circumstances the weekend is a dear friend I welcome with open arms, but it … Continue reading Friday: The Dark Artifice

Manic Mondays

I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend and start to the year. Mine started off decently enough, migraines notwithstanding, and then I ended up in Urgent Care Saturday afternoon. I legitimately thought I was having one of those days where putting contact lenses in simply wasn't going to happen. Normally this only happens once … Continue reading Manic Mondays

Don’t Mistake My Silence For Agreement

This depends on the person and whether or not I respect them. Of late, its predominantly the latter. It is not often I leave a room and slowly count to 500 when I see red, but there are only so many insults and criticisms I will take before I strike back. The fact that I … Continue reading Don’t Mistake My Silence For Agreement

I wish I had a dose of wisdom to bestow upon you today, but I don't. I wish I had something to give that somehow made even just one person's day brighter or easier, but I've got nothing. I am all out of poignancy at the moment. 😦 The thought is disheartening, to say the … Continue reading I’ve Got Nothing!

Here’s What I’ve Learned

2015 has been many things for me, but it's hard, at the moment, to say it's been kind. That would be a lie. Granted, there are pluses and minuses to every day, week, month, and year. It hasn't all been bad, but it's been hard times a million. We've all experienced this in some capacity … Continue reading Here’s What I’ve Learned
