Off to a good start, I am. What to write about, today? I have consistently read and heard – Just write. It is the practice and the habit of writing one really is seeking. True, I guess. So I will write about what I have been thinking about. Last night, I went to see aContinue reading “My 30 Day Challenge, Day 2”

Writing is tough
As a person who loves words, ideas and writing, I seem to struggle greatly with ACTUALLY writing. I know I am not alone in this. How do I conquer this? Great question and one I do not yet have an answer for. I do have thoughts, excuses, reasons and, well, probably somewhere in all ofContinue reading “Writing is tough”
On the road, wandering, again.
Who has the right? Or am I in the wrong!
Finally, I have stopped lying to myself, with the supportive challenge “it” assistance from my therapist. What lie is this one? The one where I believed my shame, humiliation, self-stigma, self-loathing and pain are the primary reason I struggle with talking to my aunt.
At Capacity and It is OK
January 24, 2021 Dear Diary, I must recap our last few sessions. Two are our couple sessions. Two are mine and one is Wolf’s. A total of five (5). Together, they are enlightening, informative and help build healthy boundaries, for me. See, I am at my capacity. The place where ‘Enough is Enough, something mustContinue reading “At Capacity and It is OK”
A Great Question. Maybe.
My medication management provider, a psychiatric nurse practitioner, just asked me a question. She does not know what made her think of it. The question? If Wolf and I were not together, would each of us be living in the truck, or, would we be elsewhere? Whoa. Wow. Hm. Um. Wolf, possibly. Probably, couch surfingContinue reading “A Great Question. Maybe.”
Two Precipatiting Events
In the laundrymat and I have had enough of non-mask wearing people who have their mask under their chin instead of over their nose AND mouth! The variants had already been detected and spread, we are being forced to remain “truck camping” or “homeless” or “homeseeking” or “nomadic” or “off-grid” because people will NOT wearContinue reading “Two Precipatiting Events”
How come I am on SSI
It is sure as heck is not because I enjoyed the process – which many consider traumatizing, rightfully, – of waiting over a year, constantly filling out paperwork, making phone calls, repeating the same information over and over to gain a label of “disabled”. I appreciate and respect a reasonable and healthy amount of paperwork,Continue reading “How come I am on SSI”
2021 arrived!
Not only has the year arrived, it seemed to slide in like an old quote I remember. “Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally wornContinue reading “2021 arrived!”
December 25, 2020
Dear Diary, It is Christmas Day. We are in the truck with nowhere to go. Same as most days. Our abusers are in their houses living well. They have no concerns. They were not the ones who left and they believe they have done no wrong. We cannot go to a shelter because of myContinue reading “December 25, 2020”
