It’s already first week of June and I haven’t written in a while. I think the reason is that I’ve been super focused on new relationships in my life, and new friendships and have neglected this blog. Not much has changed since my big post in May for goals and so, I’m skipping out on…

Forgiveness and healing from childhood trauma (trigger warning)

Early morning rain thoughts
I actually wrote this on Sunday and forgot to post it. It’s the end of the month already and as hard as it has been this year, a lot has happened in the past month. So much so that it’s been a bit over whelming. First of all, I met with my new geneticist and…
Mindfulness vs. Mindlessness
This is a repost from 2020 – rewritten and updated This morning I decided to do a search for trending health topics to write about this week and came across this headline: Mindfulness vs. Mindlessness.

Good morning world. It’s 8:00 am as I sit down with my first cup of coffee for the day. The sun is shining – brightly – the sky is clear and it is shaping up to be a beautiful day. I have a piece of pumpkin loaf and oatmeal for my breakfast, a hot cup…
Troubled in troubling times
It’s Thursday at midnight and I’m still wide awake. It’s been a long kind of day and maybe for the first time in a long while, lonely. The isolation of well, isolation life has me contemplating all my major life decisions. Like being single. Can you believe, that this week marks the 3rd anniversary of…
This chapter I call, “new beginnings”
All right, all right, all right. Things are moving along quite nicely and I am feeling more at “home” now that my computer is set up and my Wifi is finally working. Yes, you guessed it. Shaw Cable screwed up yet again. The tech tried blaming it on me or the jack but all it…
