Built for right now
I’ve been thinking these last few days about everything I have been through and how it was hard at the time in most cases, but how some of these things didn’t feel as hard until after the fact. Like in the moment I was just surviving and pushing through, not realizing that one day things…

My life as a morning person
I’m the first one up and out of bed this morning, but not because I jumped out of bed and got right up. I have a 3 hour lounging limit and I woke up at an hour that starts with 5, which is a real bummer on a Saturday. But sometimes I can sleep in…

I don’t mean to be dense, but I am not exactly sure what this question is getting at. What relationships have a positive impact on me? Is it supposed to read “what relationships have HAD a positive impact on me” because that makes way more sense to me. The way it’s worded feels tricky, like…

Better-ish (written several days ago)
I have been allowing myself to sleep in this week so that I can recover and feel better. Last night I felt like a million bucks. This morning, not so much. Although now that I have been up for awhile, I do feel better. Boy #3 had a band concert last night that we were…

You ever have the feeling that an upcoming year is YOUR YEAR? That’s where I’m at right now. I can’t tell you what will happen or what will be so awesome, but something great is coming. I wish I knew or could express how excited I truly feel for 2024. I haven’t felt something so…

Out of sync
I’m still recovering from the surgery. The reaction rash is pretty much cleared up and now the areas where my skin turned deep red and slowly fading back to normal color. I finished the steroids on Sunday and ended up in a good bit of pain later that day. It feels like I’ve taken a…

Troy’s Letter
Last week I got a call from the victim advocate down in FL who has been assigned my cases. Her job is to contact me on behalf of the prosecutor and set me up with any services I may need to recover from this break-in. She called to ask how I felt about reducing one…

Daily Prompt 8/8/23
I don’t really admire any one profession over any other. I think every profession and job is important in some way, even if it’s something that might seem frivolous to another person. It’s easy to say doctors and nurses are important, but what about other healthcare professions? Or hospital cooks and janitors? The place has…

Stupid is as stupid does
Would you pay $250,000 to dive down to the Titanic wreckage in a submersible controlled by a gaming controller? Oh and it’s bolted on the outside too. No? Maybe? Full disclosure, I love the story of the Titanic. Building it, the sailing, the sinking, the people who lived and died, the disgusting elitism that killed…
