I have a well of secret happy thoughts. Thoughts that make my heart light and the days go by in a pink fluffy haze and wrap me in warm fuzzy feelings. I think these secret thoughts and I smile a secret smile. Yet, I am not sure what, if anything, I should do with them. … Continue reading Secret Thoughts, Secret Smiles
Happy Birthday To Me
Its my birthday today. Its been a while since I mustered up the courage to write one of these. This idea has been banging around my head for a while though and I think I finally cracked it open. I have been plotting all these year-long goals to give myself yet feeling very much not … Continue reading Happy Birthday To Me
Just gimme a minute.
If anyone was counting, or paying attention, I know I said I would start posting daily, and I have not. I realize this. I am writing this to let you know that my lack of posting doesn’t mean I am not working on a post. It is just that I am putting in more effort … Continue reading Just gimme a minute.
Third Times the Charm?
So far I have written two different versions of this blog post. In one I am optimistic. I explain what I have been up to these last five months and my sincere desire to begin daily posts again.

Sleeping My Way To Health and Happiness
I feel a bit better today. And yesterday I felt a bit better as well. I took a real close look at those days to see if I could determine any variations that might account for this. The one thing I discovered, I had eight hours of sleep. I never get eight hours of sleep. … Continue reading Sleeping My Way To Health and Happiness

It is Sunday morning as I write this. I have decided that I will have a good day today. I am sick of having bad days. I am sick of feeling down and hurt and confused and helpless. Today will be different. I did all the scary things yesterday. I did all the hard things … Continue reading Not Today
