A BLOG DEVOTED TO UNBRANDED FAITH, HUMOR, AND MINDFULNESS. He made my heart skip. Even if it was just someone who looked like him, a flock of butterflies rose in my chest. Back then, I thought I really loved that guy. Then came years of struggle. Plenty of good to make it all bearable. At least I thought so. Then the dagger: Truth. And my martyr years. Then later, justified, I sang my mantra, He got what he deserved. And now the freedom years, gifted through giving. Forgiveness. Compassion. This is beaut...

It would be funny, but… | motherinterrupted

Life begins at 32, it would seem…. This is how it is. It would be funny, but…. October 7, 2012. Hey, guess what? My kitten is dying. At what point should I have started to take things personally? When my marriage died? Or now, while I’m watching the kitten (bought to replace the dead cat) die too? Is now the time to give up on a lifetime of atheism, accept that there’s a God, and that he FUCKING HATES ME? There isn’t anyone to hug me. Family and friends are too far away, all the huggy people at...I know ...

Anal sex. Single mum. Depression. Seriously. | motherinterrupted
https://motherinterrupted.wordpress.com/2012/05/31/anal-sex-single-mum-depression-seriously
Life begins at 32, it would seem…. Larr; This is how it is. My job is clucking pointless. Anal sex. Single mum. Depression. Seriously. May 31, 2012. WHHHHHHYYYYYYY did you leave me? Yes I know. Because I’m fucking mental. Moving on…). So I’m going to stuff this post full of the following keywords: Anal sex. Single mum. Depression. And I’ve created a new anal sex category and tagged nicely and everything. And if you land here because you’ve used any of these keywords, you have. I’m not joking. Do you thin...

Sweet | debreilly
https://debreilly.wordpress.com/2013/08/18/sweet-2
A BLOG DEVOTED TO UNBRANDED FAITH, HUMOR, AND MINDFULNESS. Evening walk by the river; joyful 4-year-old challenges grandma to join the trio of joggers. Then a spill, a scraped knee. Mommy piggy-backs the last mile to the car. Home again, to a place I don’t own: perfect anyway. 8 thoughts on “ Sweet. August 18, 2013 at 11:49 pm. You got there by being the person that you are and leading a life that starts every day with love. August 25, 2013 at 7:55 pm. August 19, 2013 at 1:48 pm. Meant to get here before...

Writing as cheap therapy | Match Penalty
https://matchpenalty.wordpress.com/2013/12/29/writing-as-cheap-therapy
Redux, sort of, actually not! Writing as cheap therapy. December 29, 2013. I’ve been having such a hard time this past month or so. Just trying to keep my head above water. I am terrified of the future. Will I ever get out of the terror and despair? Will it ever settle down? I am clawing desperately for perspective again. So I’ll try and write it here: my raw, vulnerable feelings, and my attempts at responses. Trying to soothe myself, trying to stay on balance. I need to look at who is there for me ̵...

I Can Do That! | debreilly
https://debreilly.wordpress.com/2013/07/02/i-can-do-that
A BLOG DEVOTED TO UNBRANDED FAITH, HUMOR, AND MINDFULNESS. I Can Do That! Yesterday I sludged through the day wearing waders, up to my chest in quicksand, mind racing. I should be working right now. This morning it dawned on me. The problem is not the job. It’s not any of the stuff I’ve been blaming this stress on. The problem is still me forgetting that it is not my job to be perfect at anything. It is my job to do the best I can while being as grateful as I can. Oh, yeah. I can do that. Apart from this...

Grateful Days | Bye Bye Boobies
https://byebyeboobies.net/2013/11/28/grateful-days
November 28, 2013. There’s so much to be grateful for. I’m grateful that my Auntie D comes up to Colorado every year for Thanksgiving and cooks an amazing, yummy, organic feast for us all to share. I’m grateful that there is a plane ticket already purchased for my brother to visit next month. I’m grateful that my kids are healthy, happy, self sufficient and crazy smart. I’m grateful for my friends. I’m grateful for my sweet Sunshine who can hardly contain her excitement for all things. I just sent a half...

Life begins at 32, it would seem…. Larr; It would be funny, but…. Anal sex. Single mum. Depression. Seriously. This is how it is. September 8, 2012. I haven’t written for a while. Mostly because nothing much has changed, and I am starting to bore myself. No I have perspective. On one level, I have a great life. I really do. I have a good, well-paid job. It’s reasonably secure, or as secure as jobs in my industry get. Complacency would be dangerous. Because the surface I’m gasping for? I don’t have ...
