The Gift That Keeps on Giving – Mental Health Struggles

Well, I guess it’s a good thing my blog is not designed as a money generator because trying to create content during a minor mental health crisis is challenging at best. I had really hoped to get back on track post trip, but once the stress of travel was off my plate, a lot ofContinue reading “The Gift That Keeps on Giving – Mental Health Struggles”

I AM SPUD

Well, it’s been a hot minute, hasn’t it? I was planning on blogging last week but the road trip I had planned for the end of last week loomed large over me. Traveling is stressful! And stress really hampers my writing at times, so here I am asking for forgiveness from peace-ing out on bloggingContinue reading “I AM SPUD”

Happy Unimportant Day to Me!

I have been dreading today. Today would have been my 26th wedding anniversary. I’d like to forget that but, you know, when you’re married for 22 years (as of 2018) it’s going to take a while for that to happen 🤷‍♀️. Then this popped up in my Facebook memories today (from 2020): “I would like you allContinue reading “Happy Unimportant Day to Me!”

And This is Why People Don’t Go to Doctors 😡

Well, it was testing week to see who is right – me or my gynecologist. I was hoping to walk away with some answers today, but apparently that is not how the system works 😡. For those who missed my “Getting Back on Track” post, I mentioned that I was having a disconcerting health issue inContinue reading “And This is Why People Don’t Go to Doctors 😡”
