Do you ever just wake up and feel a certain…moral opposition to the day? I woke up this morning, and I was simply offended. Like, how dare this day exist like this today. Sort of like how Monday didn’t feel like Monday this week, I guess Friday doesn’t really feel like Friday either. I really …
My husband is flawed. Simply because we are all flawed. He is not perfect, he is not infallible, he is not without flaw. But he is, however, loving and kind and caring. He is thoughtful and selfless and, when it matters most, I know I can count on him. It’s no secret that, as a …
Another day has started way too early. Admittedly, last night wasn’t the worst night we’ve ever had with the baby…but even a bad night is hard to handle. When the nights are sleepless day after day, it tends to pile on and build up. Last night the baby had a rough night, as I expected …
Of the many things that comes with having a new baby, isolation is one of them. It definitely can be lonely and isolating at times. The baby is 4 weeks old now, and the loneliness factor has definitely set in. My husband was supposed to go back to work this week, but we decided to …
I’m probably about as burnt out as one can be. I’m currently running on 4 hours of sleep, and the night before that wasn’t much better. Last night was super rough because now the baby is dealing with reflux, which both of my other kids did, so we were expecting it. But damn, it really …

Just because of how the schedule works out, I won’t have therapy next week. And that honestly stresses me out …
It starts with one drink. One, simple, weak, controlled drink. A seltzer, not even a real drink. I was grieving, I was sad. I deserve this. Then, it was two. Because one drink never stays one drink. Two seltzers. They don’t count. It’s not even a mixed drink. It’s not a cocktail. It doesn’t count. …
The baby is now 10 days old. To be honest, it’s probably the easiest experience with a newborn that I’ve ever had. My 5 year old was…ptsd inducing horrible as a newborn, and it was an awful experience. Of course we didn’t know he had all the health issues that we know now…but it was …
The past few days, I’ve been having a pretty hard time again. It’s been 2 weeks or so since I’ve been to therapy, and I’m going back next week….But that 3ish week break since having the baby is the longest break I’ve had in a long time. And I really need to get back. I …
