This is about finally seeing my light. Opening new doors and wanting change. I wrote this when I decided to re enter recovery.

How I enjoy weather and consider myself a "Lizard" now days since moving to fl in 2008 and how this week the temps that we've been getting remind of sometimes in Maine

My lens for reading — especially when it comes to “self-improvement” or recommended reading — is colored by efficiency, ROI, and long-term growth. Books are investments: in knowledge, perspective, and personal capital. So when someone curates a list of books she finds valuable, I treat that list as a curated portfolio of ideas.

There’s a particular kind of joy that comes from giving a handmade gift—something crafted with intention, usefulness, and a bit of seasonal charm. This Christmas, leaning into pretty-yet-practical gifts allows you to elevate everyday items into small luxuries.

As winter settles in—softly for some, bitterly for others—our kitchens and bookshelves become refuges. We reach for stories that swell the heart, dishes that warm the hands, and a mood that turns ordinary evenings into rituals. Here are five book-and-dinner pairings designed for slow nights, cold weather, and the perennial pleasure of getting lost.

This celebration is all about pure kid joy: a colorful piñata packed with sweet surprises, cheerful music, playful games, and lots of giggles. From the moment the kids arrive, they’ll be swept into a party atmosphere bursting with energy, excitement, and just the right amount of chaos (the fun kind!).

What its like being a mom and feeling the struggles of not doing good enough and having mom guilt. What its like to feel alone because its frowned upon for a mom to complain.

After settling in to our new home, it wasn't long till my mom caught wind her siblings were reaching out. After being split up in the system. One moved into our back yard. It was then my childhood seamed so bleek. Nothing happened other then he was told to leave. But therapy or taking care of my trauma never took place. My parents at the time we're dealing with the wrong problems and my step dad ended up going to rehab. My mom met a woman who is partner was also in the reman. One night I was asked to babysit for 6 year old son or aware that she had a 16 year old son until late at night. On the way home I'm asked why I was so quiet my reply I'm tired. Scared I get in trouble but then finding out that I did nothing wrong it was then I asked to go and see my dad in Nova Scotia. Understanding that he had to support the house he's never seemed to be able to find time off work. And his assumption that I had become active he put me on Depo. Into my sister came out suddenly work wasn't busy.🤬

This post is my experience with postpartum mental health and how you treat yourself is how you'll feel. Caring for yourself should always be a priority.

This is my introduction to my blog page. This is where I came from, and how I got to where I am now.

The first four months of a new baby are some of the hardest months I've ever done. Between losing your help to feeling alone you go through a lot

Growing up was simple, until the new stepmother arrived. I was a carefree kid, who loved playing and having fun. Then my father brought a women home, a woman who loathed all but one of her step children.

A vision board is more than a collection of images it's a quiet declaration of hope. As a new year begins, gathering words, colors, and symbols that reflect what you want to become brings clarity to your intentions. Each image serves as a gentle reminder that growth begins with vision, and that the future can be shaped one inspired choice at a time.

I been going through a lot mentally with someone and I have tried to explain this to them but I can’t seem to get the words out. I hope you enjoy the emotion
