When it rains it pours here. And oh, is that exactly what it’s doing. My post on Thursday detailed my own semi medical emergency that I was going through, and just as I had FINALLY agreed to go to the ER to be seen on Friday…guess what happens? I get a call from my son’s […]

The big kids are home from school today. That means I’ve got all 3 tiny monsters home all day while my husband is at work. Lucky him. It’s already been a morning, but we made it to nap time. That gives me 2-3 hours of one less tiny monster if I’m lucky. Phew. It’s just

Well, we’re here. The day I’ve been dreading for, really I guess about 10 years now. Later this morning, I am going to see my therapist for the last time. I reached out last week and asked if I could come in today (I was “allowed” 2 more appointments). ——— Honestly, as I started writing
Sunday vibes hit so much harder now. I used to have a reason to look forward to the end of a Sunday. Sure, it meant the end of the weekend, but it led to a Monday. And Mondays used to hold hope for me. Mondays meant therapy, meant hope, meant support, meant a safe space
Oh, Monday. You already know how I feel about you. This Monday is a little different because it’s the start of the last full week of summer here. School starts up again next Wednesday and we’ll be thrown right back into the school routine. This time with 2 kids, as my 5 year old will
Oh, Monday? Is that you again? Well hello there! I’m glad we’ve made it another week. Another chance to start new, to do better. Another opportunity for honesty and vulnerability during those 2 hours at the end of every Monday night in therapy. The promise of a Monday isn’t subtle. It’s a new start every

For the first time since before Christmas, this is a Monday that truly feels like a Monday. Between holidays and the flu and winter storms, Mondays have been weird for a while now. But this morning finally feels…normal. And honestly, I’m happy to see it. It’s a rainy day…my favorite kind of day, and I’m

How dare this day make me leave my bed. I mean, seriously. Is it so unreasonable for me to just stay in the safety and warmth of my bed all day? This is my husbands first day back at work since my son had surgery last Thursday. So, in almost a week. Making today the
The most Monday Wednesday that there’s ever been Read More »
I’ve never been happier to see a Monday than I am today. For some reason, it’s just felt like Monday couldn’t come fast enough this week. Monday night is my therapy night, and sometimes it just really feels like that’s all I have. Like it’s the only thing that gets me through the week. I’ve
Monday isn’t the enemy, and a bad gut feeling. Read More »
Ah, yes. Another Monday that starts with an 8am doctor appointment. To be honest, most days lately begin this way. Such is the life when you have 3 special needs kids, I suppose. Mondays are typically my busiest day of the week, with constant driving and appointments and back and forth…but they always end in
