Greetings and salutations! Another difficult session with a lot of uncomfortable truths and theories that I need to confront and dive into. It's hard to know where to begin, so I'll choose a spot and let it flow organically from there. Fear. I think that's a huge thing with me. Fear of getting hurt, fear... Continue Reading →
It’s Over. AGAIN.
Greetings and salutations!! I'm such a hot mess of contradictions today and was the same yesterday. Emotions and feelings all running rampant, and logic and passion trying to keep everything in check. UGH. It's exhausting UGH. That's how I feel, and I'm sticking with it. So, if you've read through my blog, you will be... Continue Reading →
Rage!!
Greetings and salutations! It's been a while since I've blogged. I've been thinking. Rage, anger, etc. It is a required and necessary emotion, and yet, if taken too far, can cause a lot of damage to oneself and personal relationships with loved ones, family, etc. The reason I'm writing this is not because I have...

Like a Vampire, it just refuses to die! Tales From The Couch: Part 6
Greetings and salutations! I took a break to think about things and enjoy my freedom from every that was going on, but like a vampire that refuses to die, things keep on popping up that I thought were dead, dead, DEAD. LOL. So. To recap. Some of you might have read my previous posts where... Continue Reading →
“I Will Go Sailing No More”
Found this song on Youtube, since I never watched any of the Toy Story movies. What a depressing, yet poignant song about life, getting older, etc. As I mentioned before, as I have some arthritis, there are certain things I could do 5 years ago that I can't do now--which makes this song especially hit...

Why do I blog?
Greetings and salutations! Why do I blog? Interesting question! Let's delve into the reasons, shall we? I blog to get things off my chest. It's hard keeping emotions and everything bottled up inside. Those feelings just sit there, corroding and melting away the stuff that's I think is good inside me. I don't really have... Continue Reading →
Paris: Chapter 2- Still in mourning.
To recap from Part 1... I'm sitting on the stairs, taking all of this in, when I hear the door start to open. My mom was back. Remember when I said telling me was a mistake?This is why. My mom looked at me, and like most moms, realized IMMEDIATELY something was wrong. I told her... Continue Reading →
Forgiveness and Second Guessing
Greetings and salutations. Hey, hope y'all had a happy Easter. Anyway, on to the meat of the post. As most of you know, I've had a rough go with an interpersonal/friendship/relationship crisis which has lead me to cut off contact for almost two months now while I figure out my feelings, and how to deal...

Tales From the Couch: Part 4
Greetings and salutations! This was an emotional session. We talked about some work stuff, which alas, I won't go into here for various reasons. But suffice to say, it wasn't anything I particularly needed to happen with all the other crap going on in my life. I was asked to write a letter to Special... Continue Reading →
Paris: My visit as an 18 year old. Chapter 1, a teen in mourning.
Bonjour and Salutations! The awful tragedy of Notre Dame on fire allowed me to recall some of my memories of Paris during my travels. I've travelled a lot in my life, at least I think so, but Paris was the first trip without the family. It was with my school's French club, and I was... Continue Reading →
