My birthday

Today was my birthday. I laid in bed all day yesterday a little hungover but that isn’t the whole reason I was “hiding”. I got really drunk and messaged Keith’s wife and told her the truth abo...

Well Damn....

He’s had me blocked since Easter....not that I’d done anything wrong (not at that point anyway 😳) but because he didn’t want the new girl he was seeing to find out about me. I have been blowi...

Aspen

Jarod finally made it to Evan’s apartment last night around 7 (our time). So basically he was traveling for 12 hours straight! One plane, one train and 3 busses later.... When he first got of...

Little worried

The girl that Jarod had been seeing at work started a new job yesterday so they aren’t going to have as much of a chance to see each other as they have been. He seems really down and I don’t k...


I wake up this morning and I’ve got a text from Greg that came it at 2:02 am. After that crazy ass, anonymous text that I got after my FB meltdown over Keith, I’m a little hesitant to answer an...

7 years

For 7 years I watched her take you for granted. For 7 years I watched as you worked and traveled Monday thru Friday so that she could have the “lifestyle”. For 7 years, I waited for my time wi...

Ungrateful Bitch

For 7 years I watch as she took you for granted. Took her “lifestyle” for granted, her children’s health and success for granted. The fact that you and you alone were the benefactor of her lif...

Dickey Betts Tribute

So, I’m a 50 something girl, born and raised in GA. I love all kinds of music, but blues and soul mixed with rock & roll otherwise known as Southern Rock....has my heart. I live about an h...


I don’t remember what prompted my mom telling me this, but when I was a teenager she told me about a night not long into my parents marriage. My dad had gone out with a bunch of his buddies. B...


I’m sitting here at my desk, and just above my monitor on the shelf behind it sits a vase of dried roses from the bouquet of flowers that I received from Keith for my birthday last year. In July...

My sweet cousin

My sweet cousin, Mia, died yesterday either from an over dose or suicide. I have to admit, I’m a little jealous. She gets to see my Mama & Daddy again before I do.

A day in my (alone) life...

Absolutely nothing more demoralizing than grocery shopping on a Friday afternoon. I go to the seafood counter and ask for a salmon filet. “Just the one?” The girl behind the counter asks. It a...

chronic suicidal thoughts

I read something a couple years ago maybe, it was called suicidal ideation. I can’t remember. But basically it means that you always have suicidal thoughts but never act on them. I also read a...

Best feeling...

You want to know what is one of the best feelings? When your 21 yr old stops & takes a picture of his sunrise at the golf course and sends it to you!!


There is a chess set that I have been wanting for a couple years now, but I dont know how to play. My ADD, I fear is terribly standing in the way of me remembering all the rules sigh but isn’t i...

My sister...

I deactivated my FB over a month ago. I used to post at least 3 or 4 times a week, if not more. She didn’t notice that I was gone. Glad to know that I so memorable. Glad to know she was so in...

Would you rather settle for a life you don’t want or know that you were the one that someone settled for?

Catching up

It seems that life happens at warp speed while it inches along. Last June, K’s daughter saw a message from me that he had to explain. At which time, he says to me that “it makes him realize jus...
