Soulfest

This has been a year. We have been restricted from connecting with others. We have been adding masks to our accessory collection. Someone is missing out on an active psychological experiment. I think we are all about to crack. It’s important to do what is right for you. Not everyone is going to agree with…

Never Imagined

I can bet that we have all walked through things that we never thought we would ever experience. 2020 has provided lots of opportunities to process a range of emotions and honestly, I didn’t think I would check things off a Pandemic bucket list, yet here we are. I never thought I would become somewhat…

Warrior

Do you know what I wish? I wish that the general population would get their shit together. That there wouldn’t have to be such a struggle to gain what someone rightfully deserves. Case in point, my mother’s long term care insurance. Fun fact……caring for an elderly relative is quite expensive when outside caregivers are implemented.…

People, Ugh

I have made my feelings known about how I feel about humans. They are so annoying and to be honest, I had hopes that people would improve during this pandemic. That empathy and compassion would win. I am a delusional psycho. Anyway, I unfortunately had to be out among the human race this week and…

Suggestions

Let me tell you a little story about my oldest son. I wrote about him a few days ago in honor of Down Syndrome Awareness Month. I shared how impactful he is, but I did not share that he can be a tremendous pain in the ass. Beneath all of the sweetness there is a…

Adaptation

I would be remiss if I didn’t acknowledge that October is Down Syndrome Awareness month. Normally, I would use my social media platform to post a lot of information about it along with photos of Bailey. However, I have been a bit distracted with the long recovery from my foot surgery along with my soon-to-be-released…

Not Even A Little Bit

I get it. We are so done with 2020. January 1, 2020 rolled around and we were going to make it our bitch. Instead, the switch flipped and who are the bitches now? Well, we are and as much as I would love for this year to end, I am not very optimistic that things…

Problem Solver

This pandemic has provided me with an opportunity to figure out the puzzle that would be my spouse and oldest son’s brains. It shouldn’t be too hard, but I blame COVID for my lack of creativity. If you have been following my blog, you have been swept away by my air mattress plight. The constant…

Unnecessary

I am in, what I lovingly refer to, as revision hell. It’s a lovely venue with me trying to navigate suggestions of wording along with recovering from my overall addiction to the comma. Plus, I am a novice with the editing program and there is frequent cussing as I forget to turn off said program…

An Anomaly

I guess as a mother, I have this perspective of my children. As I watch them grow and flourish, I am stunned by their wisdom and willingness to be teachable. But, most of all, I am in awe of their comfort level in doing what feels right for them versus what everyone else is doing.…
