Time to Cut the Umbilical Cord
Wow. I’ve been out of the Broadway house for a month plus some – where did the time go? We’re also almost a full 3 weeks without any contact, which has been a mixed bag of emotions between loneliness, anger, relief, and hope. If anyone thought I was a rollercoaster before… 🙄 It’s getting easier…

How do you know…
When you’re ready to jump back into the potential dating scene? Not like “Let’s go get married” expectations, but someone to enjoy their company, have a plus one to events, and maybe even get naked on occasion? Is that a thing? No, I’m not talking a fuck-boy, I mean a grown-ass man who has his…

Therapy > Drugs
Happy Mental Health Awareness Month! In all actuality, I just realized the theme of the month yesterday.. the day before maybe? But in all reality it’s perfect timing as I just had my first super successful therapy session yesterday afternoon where I left with an actual, genuine smile on my face and feeling on top…

Dependent on Codependency
The terrible, awful, no good very bad daughter strikes again. Yesterday afternoon I was asked if Mom and her dog could stay with us for a day so they could “bomb” their apartment for fleas – fleas that apparently they’ve had for quite some time. I stupidly agreed, without even consulting D, and text him…

Bipolar says what?
Happy Mid-September! Nothing like some nice cool fall weather during a mental breakdown, am I right? Adjusting to home-life again has been anything but easy. Last weekend was the first weekend since being “home” that I actually spent at home, which was much needed after my slight psychotic break a few days prior. Not really…

Relationships & Diabetes Can Suck My Dick.
I feel like I’m hungover today. Emotionally and mentally drained after yesterday and last night. Dinner with his folks was okay, but kiddo’s blood sugar numbers were through the roof all night long so we were up every hour or so to check on her. Her Dexcom wasn’t reading correctly – apparently the “200+” reading…

Organized Chaos is Cute, Right?
Today has been a fucked sort of day. Didn’t necessarily start off that way, but 6+ inches of snow and one very exhausted D later? Yeah… sure was fun. *insert eye roll here* Apparently we’re fighting over dishes. And the fact that I worked from home today. While he was out slaving away with the…

Be Nice Until It’s Time Not To Be Nice
Best line from Road House because it’s so fucking true. I’d like to think of myself as a generally level-headed, easy going gal. I love my life and the people in it. Sure, more money and more free time would be nice, but I’m not dying without it. I’m content with our little family unit…
