  • Late March 2016 #stress

    I am so stressed out right now. Like I know I’d feel better if I could just cry, but I’m dry. In times like this, I should feel more drawn to seek out God. But I’m not. I feel it’s just an obligation to read my bible and pray, but…

  • Mid March 2016

    Two posts in one month, wow, I haven’t done that in a while, huh? At the beginning of the month I was getting a MRI and had my first panic attack in one. We only got 15 or so minutes into it and I couldn’t handle it anymore. My doctor…

  • Late January 2016

    OK, who stole January? Wasn’t it just the day before Christmas?? Speaking of, my Christmas was good. Kind of low-key this year, but still fun. Good times with family and friends as usual. Mike got me a vacuum, you know, since he’s so into them and wanted to make sure I…

  • Mid April 2015

    It’s been a rough couple weeks, not gonna lie.  Things with Mike are wonderful, don’t worry, it’s not that. See, I tried to ween off one of my antidepressants because I thought I was doing a lot better.  Well, I was, but seems it may have been because of this…

  • End of 2014

    Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas! Hard to believe we’re already at the end of the year!  2014 flew by for me, didn’t it for you? I was looking at my post earlier this year, Beginning of 2014, and was thinking how many of my goals I actually accomplished.  Kinda…
