It may be a deceitful title…as you are likely expecting something much sexier than what you are about to read…but… I’ve not been writing much on the blog as of late. My work life has taken me down a road I never planned nor wanted to travel, and now I am online much of the…
Sooooo….on Sunday… Mr. D came home early in the afternoon, since all of his dress clothes were still at the house. We got ready for the company party together and dropped our son off at the grandparents’. I wasn’t sure how the whole evening would go, but the company party is usually a decently small…
A week and a half into our separation, and I’m just now beginning to struggle with finding my feet. It’s easy to fall back on routine and compartmentalizing my emotions, but these habits keep me from facing things and growing. My emotional struggles show themselves through my writing. When I’m unable to write or don’t…
Note: These posts are not meant to make anyone uncomfortable. I realize it’s hard to know how to react or respond to someone else’s pain or heartache. I write to heal, to understand, to share, and because stories can help others. There is no need to sympathize or find difficult words. Likewise, don’t feel you…
I realize that not everyone is going to be interested in reading about my rather unfortunate current marital circumstances. But, for my own sake, writing about what is happening in my life allows me to process and make sense of things. It is how I learn. I share it because I know that it just…
I actually have no words…And it’s okay if you don’t either. I don’t expect you to.
Shit’s ugly right now. But, you know, even in the midst of my marriage falling apart, there is still much to be grateful for: 12+ years with my best friend, and though not all the days were good, the ones that were, I’d never trade for a million years…no regrets, right? a gorgeous, intelligent boy…
I looked at this week’s Wicked Wednesday prompt (Suitcases) and thought and thought about what kind of post I might do. Much like last week, I’ve sort of found myself at a creative loss. I don’t know if that is because I’ve been sick, grieving, depressed, or just plain uninspired. Most likely, it’s a combination…
Mr. D brought me a special present from his business trip. A nasty cold. Hence missing out on Masturbation Monday, yesterday, which sucks, because I was looking forward to writing up part 2 of “What’s in the Bag?” But I suppose that can marinate for another week. I didn’t do ANY writing yesterday. Basically, I napped,…
A long time ago, during one of our rather regular “discussions” about our relationship, Mr. D asked me an important question. I didn’t have an answer and was a bit taken aback by it, so I slipped it into my subconscious and let it marinate for awhile. Things like this tend to come back when…
