Screams
She was exhausted from the meltdown she’d had earlier in the day, the one that had her in tears repeating the words “I can’t do this anymore” over and over. Definitely not an example of positive self talk by any stretch of the imagination. In fact, she couldn’t remember the last time she had spoken […]
Happiness found…
She had sat outside and just watched and listened. The tiny lights of the fireflies brought a smile to her face and sweet memories of her childhood to mind. The birds singing filled the air with a kind of tranquility she hadn’t felt in a long, long time. It was warm and peaceful and although […]
How many times?
How many times can one start over?
Once upon a time…
She wondered what happened to the girl who she used to be. She realized last night that girl was truly gone. A new version of herself was now forming, and she wasn’t sure what she thought of her. She didn’t necessarily like who she was before, but she wasn’t sure of what she was becoming. […]
When someone dies
She had gotten an email late last night that someone she’d worked with had passed away after a battle with pancreatic cancer. This was the second loss of someone she knew to this horrible disease this year. She was surprised and saddened to hear of this loss, she had no idea her one time friend […]
Pro Cras Tin Na A Tion Is Making Me Late….
She amazed herself at her ability to find things to do other than what she should be doing. She did get her car battery replaced. (Finally!) And her windshield wipers replaced. And she was anxious for the new spacebar to arrive so she could replace that and ditch the USB keyboard she was using. She […]
Cleaning the wrong thing leads to tragedy of sorts
She was in tears…She had accidentally pried up the space bar on her laptop to clean something that had gotten caught beneath it and in the process she snapped it off completely breaking the little tabs that hold it on and now it would have to be replaced. She’d tried in vain to put it […]
More excuses!
Ok, so going to the grocery store was necessary she thought to herself. She was quick about it thanks to what seemed like every woman other than herself wearing a gallon of perfume poisoning the air. She dashed through the store forgetting most everything she needed just to escape out into the fresh air so […]
Can’t be trusted with scissors
She was feeling much better after her latest journey into the land of creativity. She had some left over uniform shirts and was able to get a couple of them at least out of the room they were cluttering. (Yay!) She made little cuts at the bottom, then tore the fabric and needless to say, […]
But but but…
She found it far more interesting to watch HGTV (the Home and Garden channel) and eat chocolate covered raisins than eat the damn elephant. Sure, she found some of the shows inspiring. Seeing other people have their homes transformed, made over and renovated was wonderful. She should probably get on the phone and order a […]
