Ruining Christmas
Wow. Christmas was anything but boring this year. It's the last Christmas with my Dad in the area. I then spilled a pot of boiling water on my arm and foot and missed the rest of Christmas. And now I've been out of work trying to recover for two weeks. And I never realized how bad scalding burns could be ( Read more... ) -
The lump that's 3 feet above your ***
What I don't get is why people don't use their brains more. Not enough people thoroughly think through the things they are saying, doing, POSTING online. And they don't consider how their actions and words can hurt other people. OR how nauseating it is for people to go on and on and on about how in love they are with someone. That's great that you' ( Read more... ) -
Only the Good Die Young
I can't believe that it has been exactly five years since Stephy was taken from this world. I don't feel like my heart has been wrenched from my chest anymore, but that pain still comes whenever I think of her and the fact that I can't talk to her, hang out, joke around or anything.

So much so I didn't even go to church today, which I always look forward to nowadays. It's strange, because throughout my life, I have only gone to church when staying with friends or family overnight, but my family was ( Read more... ) -
Knowing Who We Are
People tend to wonder throughout their life, "Who am I?" And that question is always a tough one to answer. It's so general and leaves a lot to think about. Is it really something you can scientifically calculate? Is there an infallible equation that can tell each person who they truly are? I was recently asked by my roommate if I know who I am. My ( Read more... ) -
It all comes together...
For the last few months I've slowly been feeling like I was a stranger trapped in my own body. Nothing I thought, felt or did felt normal. Like I wasn't me. I couldn't figure it out. But now that the month from hell has finally passed and everything has started to come together. The house is still a work in progress, but it's getting there. I'm ( Read more... )
