From powerless feelings to grateful feelings

From powerless feelings to grateful feelings

My poor daughter she gets the backlash of my mood swings so often.  I woke up today on the wrong side of the bed.  It wasn’t even because I knew the outcome of our next president either. I would never go online, check emails or even pick up my iPad before reading my course of miracle workbook. I just had a bad nights sleep and I was cranky. Being that I was up most of the night, I know my…

A life with disabilities-my daughter’s college essay

A life with disabilities-my daughter’s college essay

My mother tells the story of when I was two and she walked into Tutor Time. The door opened and every child’s head turned but mine. That led to the diagnosis that would affect my entire life. We found out I had a progressive hearing loss called EVA (enlarged vestibular aqueduct) and when my mother walked through that door, I had already lost all the high frequencies in my hearing. I received the first of two surgeries for my cochlear…

Did we met because of fate or was it free will?

Did we met because of fate or was it free will?

Do you believe people come into your life haphazardly or that there is an actual reason? Do you believe in fate or destiny? Do you think life has a purpose some higher meaning or that things are just random occurrences? Do you believe the universe has a master plan? I’ve been a believer in fate my whole life. I’ve had to many meetings  in my life where the time and place I met someone so many random things happened got…

A true dog lover

A true dog lover

There are so many things in my life I am truly grateful for and I can dedicate numerous posts to each of them. Today I want to talk about the ones that can never read my post. I actually started with cats. My first apartment didn’t allow dogs. Each fight my ex-husband and I had resulted in another cat. My dad, who always owned dogs, used to say “you’re a dog person”. I started pushing to get a dog as…

I met my person in college my sophomore year. It was one of those weekend where everyone leaves school to go home for the…

Cyber crash Monday-Happy Halloween

Cyber crash Monday-Happy Halloween

ok maybe not a cyber crash but I’m taking a crash day. I’m going to go back to bed and recharge, regroup, refuel and recoup.  I haven’t done a full day where I spend the day in bed in a long time but I think I need to today. I went to bed super early last night and I’ve been up since 2:30am. I let thoughts take over that shouldn’t be plaguing my thoughts anymore. No matter what I did…
