  • Identify the Bear
    I’m kind of a nerd and I enjoy psychology, especially interpersonal developmental psychology. I recently happened upon a subject I found super intriguing, attachment theory. For anyone who doesn’t know what that is, it’s a psychological theory that a how a person forms relationships with themselves and others is developed as an infant based onContinue reading “Identify the Bear”
  • ..but you were just here
    Death. Death is one of those things I’ve experienced a lot, but that I just can’t quite grasp. I don’t know if I just compartmentalize it or just dissociate from it, but I just don’t understand. It doesn’t make sense to me. You were just here. I can still hear your voice. I have theseContinue reading “..but you were just here”
  • One time is too many
    ***Warning graphic descriptions of domestic violence*** I’ve debated on writing this for a long time and today I’m finally going to talk about something that I’ve almost never talked about. From about 15 to about 22 I was in a very volatile and all around unhealthy relationship plagued with substance abuse and violence. I’ve neverContinue reading “One time is too many”
  • That’s stupidly not forgiveness
    My husband and I have been becoming more active members of our church. I went through RCIA, got confirmed, had our 4 youngest baptized, and we are currently taking marriage classes to have our marriage blessed within the church. We got married a year ago on May 26th with a beautiful, small ceremony on theContinue reading “That’s stupidly not forgiveness”
  • My soulmate
    I get that when I say my husband is my soulmate it sounds cheesy, but I mean it in the most genuine way possible. I firmly believe he was sent to me by God, an answer to my prayers, at exactly the right time in both our lives. Most my life I was plagued withContinue reading “My soulmate”
  • An analogy
    Active addiction is like noticing a pothole at the end of your driveway that you have no idea how to fix, so you grab your hose and fill it with water. Then at least know one will know bad it actually is. Bad thing about water is it drains quickly and what you don’t knowContinue reading “An analogy”
  • Just shut up
    I’m going to preface this by making a relatively broad generalization. Men and women differ quite dramatically especially in the way we think. In my experience men are generally more logical while women operate on a more emotional level. Now, with that being said, my husband and I haven’t had a notable fight in probablyContinue reading “Just shut up”
  • Quit being a b*tch
    Okay, I haven’t posted in a while, but I’ve seen something lately on social media the irks me to my fucking core. Let me begin this with a question; what’s the most effective way to deter a behavior? You punish it. So, never punish a behavior you wish to see repeated. Now, let’s get intoContinue reading “Quit being a b*tch”
  • Did you miss me?
    I know it’s been quite some time since I’ve posted! I was just talking to my husband about it the other day and I told him I’ve just been busy and he said “excuses”. Simply put. After some thought he was right, I mean I have been busy, but definitely not too busy to sitContinue reading “Did you miss me?”
  • By any means necessary
    Up until recently I lived my life solely in survival mode. When things would come up that I had no idea how I was going to make them work what would always came out of my mouth was “we’ll figure it out” and I’d always do it. I always figured it out, I always madeContinue reading “By any means necessary”
