The Cost of Being Strong

I was watching tv when suddenly I became overwhelmed with emotions. I was thinking about what I was facing right here and now that no one was aware of at this time. Thinking about not working a job that could pay my bills for the past 2 months. Thinking about the certified letter that cameContinue reading “The Cost of Being Strong”

Looking Back

I know that we often say you don’t look back, keep looking forward. But, sometimes, it’s essential to look back so you can evaluate things and get a grasp on what needs more work. I’ve been doing just that in many aspects of my 2019. Some takeaways for myself are: Creating more creative space forContinue reading “Looking Back”

It’s Christmas Eve

Hello fellow bloggers and followers. It’s Christmas Eve, and I have been sitting here crocheting and catching up on my shows. I love “The Resident and All Rise.” I would typically get up around 4am to workout. However, since I’m still up, I’m going to just workout now before I go to sleep, which probablyContinue reading “It’s Christmas Eve”

Drunken Nights

Listen, I don’t get out that often but I went out Saturday night. I did something I knew better than to do, I mixed my drinks. OMG, I won’t tell you how awful I felt, but I will say that I’m not doing that again. What a horrible storm I brought about that night. IContinue reading “Drunken Nights”

Broken Heart

There are many reasons my heart has been broken, but one that is a loss that still stings like it was yesterday. That is the loss of my mom. All the reasons for discord can never add up to all the moments of joy I remember sharing with her. This came after she became sickContinue reading “Broken Heart”

No Regrets

I will say that I am the hardest on Sharon, that’s me. My mind is constantly going 100 miles a minute trying to figure out my life. There are the things I AM doing, the things I’ve DONE, and the things I am GOING to do. I often find myself in the past zone whereContinue reading “No Regrets”

Got My Snow

Good day everybody. Although I had a restful night I’m sleepy this morning. But guess what? I opened my front door to a snow covered car and the snow still coming down. It was such a beautiful site to see and believe me I’ve been waiting for it. There is something about the snow thatContinue reading “Got My Snow”

End of Week Recap

I’m sitting here in my living room in the dark except for my Christmas tree lights listening to Soulful Christmas Songs on YouTube. There’s something about being quiet that allows you to put things into perspective. This Christmas I don’t have the financial means to do all the things I’ve done for my love onesContinue reading “End of Week Recap”

Ready For The Weekend

Y’all I don’t mean no harm but I’m ready for the weekend. I have the pleasure of leaving my “now” job and going to the secret Santa party with my “nurse friends/family” from my last travel nurse assignment. I’ve worked many jobs in my lifetime but I have to say that the last assignment asContinue reading “Ready For The Weekend”

Once Upon A Time

Once upon a time, I knew a girl who was sweet and loving and kind. She helped to take care of everyone she knew. She even assisted her mom when she took care of her dying mother and aunt who had cancer. This little girl couldn’t think of anything more than how wonderful she feltContinue reading “Once Upon A Time”
