  • Testing 1, 2, 3..testing!

    Thursday, April 10, 2008 | A Rambling story

    Today was Kearsten's big adventure. I actually went into Seattle for something other than a doctor's appointment. Since the kids are off this week we took them to the aquarium and decided to play the role of tourist and go on the duck ride around the city. It was a lot of fun. We were only out and about for 5 hours where I did not do too much (well at least I thought) but the second we go...

    Tuesday, May 6, 2008 | A Rambling story

    I just wish I could do anything. My mind spends all day thinking of all the things I would like to be doing but my body takes over and makes me sleep. I look at pictures friends send me of all their great adventures and I cannot even keep the house clean. This is not a pity party but I am so frustrated with CFS. Summer is almost here and for those who know anything about Washington, we only get 3...

  • Another Sunday

    Sunday, June 15, 2008 | A Rambling story

    Well it always seems like I have time to journal before I go back to church at night. Usually my medicine makes me so sleepy that I sleep through it. But I will NOT today. It is fathers day and my son said to me happy Mothers/Fathers Day. I love my son. He is so special to me. I wish his father knew the lives he has managed to set back and almost destroy because of leaving our family for the 2nd ...

  • Rambling On and On

    Tuesday, September 2, 2008 | A Rambling story

    "The road to love is the road to God.  By ridding ourselves of unforgiveness, we can accept God's will.  Quote of the day: Our needs are not separate.  If we contribute to another person's pain, it will always come back to haunt us.  If we do what we can to help them, someone will always come around to do the same for use."  Excepted from A Return to Lov...

  • I am so confused...

    Tuesday, September 9, 2008 | A Rambling story

     
    I know what I want... but I dont have a clue what it is.
    I know how I feel... but I dont know why I feel like this.
    Nothing is making much sense...my mind never stops, I want so bad to just turn it off and get lost in nothing. I used to be able to do that, and on a rare occasion I still can. Lately it has been so hard. I have now been up for 4 days... my body feels the exhaustion, but my...

  • Stalled...

    Sunday, January 25, 2009 | A Rambling story

      I feel like I have stalled out on this road of life. I broke down, ran out of gas, got some flat tires, and just can't begin to figure out how to get myself back on that road. Too bad I can't be towed to a repair shop, and then, a few days later, "Good as new!" Back on the road, complete with great new job (with health benefits, of course!), healthy relationships, no phys...

  • mixed emotions

    Thursday, March 19, 2009 | A Rambling story

    RIGHT NOW MY EMOTIONS ARE GOING SO OUT OF CONTROL. THIS MORNING I WAS LISTENING TO THE RADIO AND THEY WERE TALKING ABOUT THE DUMB THINGS PEOPLE SOMETIMES SAY AND I LAUGHED AND LAUGHED. BUT AFTER ANOTHER FRUSTRATING DAY WITH MY CLIENT I WAS FEELING SO MUCH LIKE A FAILURE I COULD HARDLY COPE. I FEEL LIKE I AM STUCK WHEN IT COMES TO DEALING WITH MY GRANDMOTHER'S DEATH - I FEEL LIKE I AM NOT BEIN...

  • struggle with feelings of worthlessness

    Tuesday, May 5, 2009 | A Rambling story

    APPARENTLY I COME BY MY STRUGGLE WITH FEELINGS OF WORTHLESSNESS HONESTLY. MY MOM HAS TOLD ME THAT MY DAD STRUGGLED WITH IT ALL THE TIME SHE KNEW HIM. HIS BREAKING POINT CAME WHEN HE WAS PROMOTED TO CAPTAIN - SOMEHOW HE BELIEVED THAT IT WAS A MISTAKE, THAT HE WASNT GOOD ENOUGH, AND THAT EVENTUALLY THEY WOULD FIND OUT AND GET RID OF HIM. THIS LEAD TO THE DISPAIR THAT ENDED UP TAKING HIS LIFE. MY MO...

  • triggers in strange places

    Tuesday, July 28, 2009

    IF I NEEDED ANY PROOF THAT I AM NOT FINISHED DEALING WITH MY RAPE, YESTERDAY WAS A GOOD REMINDER. I WAS ON MY WAY HOME FROM WORK AND SAW A POSTER FOR "LITTLE WARRIORS", THE CANADIAN GROUP DEDICATED TO HELPING CHILD SEX ABUSE VICTIMS. THE STATS QUOTED ON THE POSTER ARE STAGGERING, 1 IN 3 GIRLS AND 1 IN 6 BOYS WILL BE ABUSED. BUT THAT WASNT WHAT MADE ME SO UPSET. IN THE CORNER OF THE POST...
