    Decay of a Decade: Looking Back and Setting Better Goals

    December 31, 2019 / No Comments

    It is that time of year – the day before the New Year, time to take stock and plan ahead. In particular, it is time to evaluate the last 10 years and figure out how to better approach the years to come. I figure I can’t do much worse than I already have, what do I have to lose?

    I’ve been doing some reflecting, it’s that time of year between Christmas and New Years when attention is drawn to dissecting the past, looking back over memories of days gone by. Sometimes I look back and have a hard time believing specific pockets of time that happened were of my life.

    Alone versus Lonely

    December 26, 2019 / No Comments

    If there is one thought that has been lingering on my mind over the last several weeks is the pros and cons of remaining alone. Sometimes I wonder if I am just making a martyr of myself post-divorce, or if I am truly meant to walk the earth a lone wolf.

    2020 – Hindsight and the New Year

    December 26, 2019 / No Comments

    I don’t know how I managed to completely miss that at the end of this year, not only will it be a new year, but an entirely new DECADE. Where the hell have I been, and what the fuck have I been doing that I missed that memo? Oh, yeah, that’s right. My personal life had fallen apart and I have spent the last year rebuilding it from the ground up.

    Merry Christmas to Me – the Gift of Peace

    December 25, 2019 / No Comments

    There are many benefits to having older teens. First is that I no longer have to wake up at the butt crack of dawn on Christmas morning to open presents, or to do the “Christmas” thing.

I blog about the random ass shit going on in my life. I'm a single mom, a Navy veteran, avid reader, and coping with life post-divorce. I have two sons and five cats, so clearly, I'm a catch. I pull no punches and use salty language. Read at your own risk.
