FIL

I wrote a letter to FIL, and I don’t think I’ll share it, here. But here are my contemplative ruminations on it. After his wife, my DH’s mother, and my MIL, died last November, I have thought wi...

I am so TIRED

I have just about zero energy. The first couple weeks- few weeks, even- I was working out and walking and playing all day with my ham. Now I’m lucky if I make dinner. Waking up SUCKS so hard. I w...

That Much Less

Drama. I received an apology today from someone who acted aggressively, angrily and with hurtful intent toward me a little over a year ago. I must say the relief is just palpable, for me. And, I...


Nothin’. Annoying. I want to poke it with a stick. Do something. I bought myself a pregnancy journal and am keeping my logs in there. I like the idea of having something physical, and also person...

Snarky clever remarks

Never come to me in the right moments. Why do you fail me, brain?! BM asked me right as we came in the door for birthday dinner: “Are you a pisces?! Or no? Then Aries right?” It occurred to me as...

Wow wow wow

Conversations Which

leave me unsatisfied. DH and I talked about our experience of his family at the 30-or-so people gathering yesterday. It went something like this. Me: “I noticed that I have a lot of anxiety aro...

My Dad and His

sister are like 2 peas in a pod. My dad is fervently right and my aunt is vehemently left. I don’t know why it took me so long to piece it together. They’re both very reactive, uncritical to the...

I'm Having a Great Day

And, I’m not sure what I want to say. I feel an expectation to be useful to other people, here. I don’t particularly mind that expectation, but I also want to acknowledge it and identify that I d...

Valentine's honesty

Is refreshing. I can’t remember seeing ANY honest thoughts about it from the public at large. It was always “I love it so much I’m so special I’m so loved” or “I hate Valentine’s stupid Hallmark ...

Day Trading

I’ve decided pretty much by sheer impulse to start day trading. I think I’ll start today. Well. I’ll think about it today. Inflation has me freaked out quite a bit. Our grocery bill is almost as...

People are Stupid

People are mean. People are defensive, agressive, ignorant and idiotic. I feel ashamed. I feel greif. I feel that it should not be so. But the evidence is overwhelming. It seems that anything ...

Bullied

We’ve been TTC for what seems like most of last year. In reality, we’ve only really been able to catch 2 solid months. It seems like a married couple should be able to plan these things, but it w...
