Wolf and I have been in couples therapy for a couple of years now. He wanted us to go to help us, primarily and specifically, to improve our communication skills. I finally agreed and we set it up. The therapist assigned to us is phenomenal. I assure you my decision is NO reflection upon her,Continue reading “I left couples therapy. Here’s why.”

It’s Christmas Eve, 2021. I’m Reflecting
Reflecting on what? I do not know. Exactly. Or, specifically. Nor do I even know what my intent is in reflecting, at this moment at least. The best I can feel is simply because I suspect Normalizing and Rescripting are prominent for me currently. How does it feel? Weird Uncomfortable Good(ish) Positive SCARY Beautiful HarrowingContinue reading “It’s Christmas Eve, 2021. I’m Reflecting”
My 30 Day Challenge, Day 2
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.

At Capacity and It is OK

Gratitude: Growth, Progress
Dear Diary, A blog I follow, The Write Nook, recently reminded me to write about gratitude. Yes, I have heard this before. Read it. Thought about it. Pondered it. Forgot about it. Lost touch with it.

Taxes, aargh!!!
Dear Diary, Three times I have gone into my account to complete this task. Three times, unsuccessfully. Next, I lock myself out of one account. Okay. Until I found out I have to wait for my temporary password to arrive via United States Postal Mail! In my area, the mail is a mess for mostContinue reading “Taxes, aargh!!!”
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!”
