The more time passes, the harder it gets to formulate thoughts into a post. Things have been quiet and fine. The Monster lurks in the background, still commenting here and there on our family blog. Letting it be known that he is alive and well, and watching. But I’ve been mostly [...]

Home Is Where The Heart Is

I’ve been out of town, visiting my family. I’ve taken my little Angel with me while his daddy is busy working. We miss him.

I spoke with my Mom on the phone yesterday. She told me that she and the Hippie were separating. I am heartbroken. For me, a little bit. For him, a lot. Not for my Mom so much, it is her decision. While I know it is not easy for [...]

I grew up in a household that I thought was normal. Better than normal, even. We were privileged. We lived in a bigger house than most of my friends, a beautiful old farm that had been renovated into a two-story family abode. We had nicer cars. Toyota and Mercedes, the [...]
Getting Started

Here I am. “Trying to sort through my baggage and make sense of it all with a little blog therapy”. That is my intro line and the gist of this whole thing.
I am a soon-to-be-thirty-something girl. Mother to a little Angel. Wife to a passionate Rebel with many causes. Stay-at-home-mom [...]
