I’ve been working with my therapist on it. She tells me that I need to learn to have self-compassion. She keeps tellingContinue reading “July 10th, 2021”

Today my husband stopped by to drop his keys and garage door opener off. It’s official, every drop of him has left the house. How am I handling it do you ask?

And somehow I managed to break the riding lawnmower that we had when I asked my husband to show me how to use it. I was trucking along andContinue reading “June 9th, 2010”
