This Is All Of Us…….
I am almost positive that everyone has either seen or at least heard about the show This Is Us that’s on NBC. Well if you haven’t, it’s definitely worth taking time to watch it. I can guarantee you will not be able to stop watching after you see the first episode. Anyway I am not here…

True Love Doesn’t Notice
Hello everyone, oh how I have missed all of my blog friends. I hope you all are doing well. HS had me in a hostage situation and was not willing to negotiate. I was able to compromise with it eventually. While it is still here, my pain level decreased some. Now I am able to…

If Or Even If? What Are Your Conditions?
Love is a powerful word. I often times wonder when some people say it, if they are aware of what it really means? When I think about love, I think about my family and friends who mean the world to me. The older I get, the more I realize how important it is show and…

Good Grief…..
I never thought there was such a thing. I only heard it said when someone was frustrated about something or when Charlie Brown just couldn’t cut it. I’ve always associated grief with crying and being sad. Just a dark cloud of loss and pain. I remember when my father died. I didn’t know which way…

One Foot In Front Of The Other, With Blinders On……….
There is no perfect time to write. If I waited until I felt 100% then I would never have started this blog. Today has been a most trying day. Now I know thinking I am in control of anything is an illusion, but I really thought I had a handle on my HS for today.…
