  • 2018-04-19 The Time Puzzle

    One of the hardest things to do, especially for someone like me who thrives on routine, is recognize when something is not working as it could or should and make a change. It’s even tougher when that “thing” is something that was previously optimized for maximum potential. My routine. Goals. Meeting Expectation. And Time.. The…

  • 2018-04-17 Broken Records

    Balance.. procrastination.. balance.. sacrifice sleep.. social anxiety.. steps forward.. struggle.. too much to do. Rinse and repeat. I’ve been writing this blog for 15 months now and when I started I was very much a broken person. A broken down broken record repeating the same sad story week after week. I was all “too much…

  • 2018-04-12 Being Human

    It doesn’t matter who you are or how healthy you are… everyone gets sick. I don’t know where I might have picked up a cold (especially this time of year), but did and yesterday I was down for a count. I determined pretty quickly that my body needed to rest and recover and I was…

  • 2018-04-03 A Critique of the Critical Essay

    I’ve done a lot of forced writing in the last week. By forced I mean writing that I wouldn’t normally do. Poetry comes easy.. and when it happens I always enjoy it. I rarely pick a topic and say to myself, I’m gonna write about that this time. Journaling usually comes easy. I just start…

    You know that some people subscribe to the theory that all you have to do is send thoughts about what you want and what you need out into the Universe at large and that opens the door to make those things possible. If I had to put this into actual terms people have come to…

  • 2018-03-23 Friday Freakout

    Yesterday the sun came out finally and the temps went up enough the kids and I had our first trampoline session of the year. It was also admittedly a struggle to choose that over sitting down to read or write given my state of mind due to my self inflicted situation, which is another looming…

  • 2018-03-22 Easier Said Than Done

    I’m completely stuck and and have to start here. It’s 2 in the afternoon and I’m so frazzled and unfocussed I can’t tell you which way is north. Of course I know north is at the back of my house, but I’m talking about “true north”. Yesterday, all my good intentions starting schoolwork were derailed…
