Life has changed so much for me in tha last year that I honestly don’t know where to start. I guess the best place to begin is to update you on things. My ex took me to court and I lost custody of the kids. Just like that, it seemed it was over in the…

Letter to the Man Who Thought He Broke Me
As the year comes to a close and the holidays are in full swing this year I find myself reflecting on so many things. The biggest is my former marriage and the man who I thought would be there forever by my side. The man who in the end took everything while giving nothing in…
I’m Scared of the Dentist and Here’s Why
The dentist scared the crap out of me. There I said it. They do and unlike a lot of people who have dentophobia, which fear of the dentist by the way, mine has a reason behind it. I thought I would share a little bit of my story with y’all. Although I need to warn…
4 Things You’ve Probably Done if You Are Socially Awkward
To say that I am socially awkward is to put it mildly. I do things sometimes and afterwards I feel so stupid. For example I will agree with things like a meal to make things easier on everyone. Even when I hate whatever we are going to have or I want something different.
