your sixth birthday in heaven

Today you would have been 33. I wonder what your life would be like if you were still here. Would you be living here? Would you be married? Oh how I wish these weren't things to wonder about. I miss you always, but some days are harder than others. Happy Birthday Angel.

invisible pain

i've considered writing about this several times but because I, personally, am not constantly and relentlessly affected by it as much as in the past, i had not. Yesterday I was talking with a very sweet girl i know that also suffers from constant chronic pain and we were discussing how it can absolutely disrupt…

i warned you i’m obsessed with my cats.

I wasn't kidding. Literally like 85% of the 3k pictures on my iPhone are photos of them. The skinnier one (D) will be celebrating his 13th birthday in April, and the chunky one we like to call "tube of cat" (G) will be turning 11 this year. Enjoy.

an angel and a hero; my two best friends.

So if you happen to be a reader of mine, I'm certain you are aware that in 2012, one of my very best friends who was more like my brother than my friend, left us and went to heaven. While I love and miss him dearly, this post is not about him. You see, I…

a letter to my best friend in heaven.

when i’m alone with my thoughts.

I have been working crazy hours. I fell asleep in my living room last night around 6pm when I got home. Which is great I guess, because I was really tired. The only problem is that I woke up at 2:30am wide awake and fully rested and I don't even have to start getting ready…

since it’s been a hot minute

Hello all. I guess I have been a bit MIA lately. My apologies. You see, on Christmas eve, I came down with that absolutely horrific stomach bug and was stuck in bed for days. Small silver lining: I was feeling well enough to make short visits to each of the homes of my family. That…
