I’m back. Barely. The first few weeks of September have been… hazy. My mental health hasn’t been kind (Not that it’s ever kind), but it’s been even worse than normal thanks to a host of things, but namely a migraine med switch that lists depression as a dang side effect. That’s one way to… Read More support (five minute friday)
this week’s prompt: I can’t help but think of good ol’ Mr. Rogers with this being the word this week: It’s a beautiful day in this neighborhood! A beautiful day for a neighbor! Would you be mine? Oh, could you be mine? I don’t think I got the whole gist of that song as a… Read More neighbor (five minute friday)
It started to storm in my neck of the woods shortly before the sun set on this long day. I felt like I was suffocating stuck in this house, so I quietly moseyed outside at the first ring of thunder. I sat down on what barely constitutes a front porch to watch. The thunder and… Read More thank god for storms.
This week’s prompt: I’m sick and tired, literally. Somehow I got a cold in the middle of August.

This week’s FMF word: I’m trying. I’m trying to start over, but I can’t figure out where to start.

I’m trying to not get frustrated and overwhelmed despite… Read More try (five minute friday)

Leaving my job/my kids so suddenly, transitioning home (which isn’t exactly the healthiest place for me to be in the first place), not having access to counseling, being separated from my community, figuring out job things-–… Read More let go of your grip.
Happy five minute friday! this week’s word: hm. interesting! here we go: I am a collector of things. I blame my mother for this habit– our house has always come close to being hoarder-esque, filled with random knicknacks and antiques and things of the like. I’ve collected different things over the years: beanie… Read More collect (five minute friday)
Tonight’s word: I legit think God has a sense of humor. I was going to write on something COMPLETELY different (or I was trying to, at least), but I kept coming back to this. It’s hard. I didn’t want to write this post. But I’ve been sitting on my laurels with this for quite some… Read More comfort (five minute friday)
