    It’s Been Five Years…

    I am having a hard time picking a place to start with writing this post. Over the last week, I reflected on what I want to say, but it gets jumbled up every time. I am more in amazement that it has been five years. It sure as hell doesn’t feel like it. Driving to

    On the Brink of Failure

    You guys seem to like it when I keep it real on here. Well, it’s been a while since I even posted here. Let alone let you in on the deep thought. Lately, that’s all I have been bathing in. All the deep thought. Unfortunately, not the good vibe kind of deep thought. More like

  • Feel the Feels

    Feel the Feels

    Good lord. I feel like a whiny bitch at this point. I moan and groan about the same things week in and week out. Feeling stretched thin with work. Money not growing on trees. Lack of social interaction. My chronic illnesses kicking my ass. Yeah, we get it. You have a lot going on. After
