Since my last post was a downer, here’s a funny for you. Maybe I’ve just been a web designer too long. LOL

Tomorrow (or later today) will be hard. I know know that now, but I’ve still been shoving my feelings down this week. Two years ago, on September 1, 2022, I received one of the worst phone calls a parent could get. My bonus son committed suicide. I hadn’t talked to him about anything major in […]

I was talking to someone today and remembered something I forgot long ago. Before I got married the first time, before I got pregnant with my oldest, I signed up for a college course about the history of the Middle ages. I don’t even remember the name of the class now. What I do remember […]

I was looking at a post on a Vermont page on Facebook. Someone was asking about a Pride event going on. The hate on that post shocked me. I guess that’s why I tend to try to avoid looking at anything other than posts from my friends. One of the people said something about a […]

A friend showed me this today, and I had to laugh. It just fits so much of what you see online. I’m still struggling with journaling every day. I’m going to keep trying for now. I need to get some of these thoughts out of my head because my emotions feel heavy when I don’t. […]

I had a regular checkup last week. I said something about losing Nick, and he suggested counseling to find a way to cope. I don’t need to see someone else to find a coping mechanism. I’ve always written to sort through things. I’ve always done that with my writing. Unfortunately, I haven’t done much writing […]

Found this on Twitter/X. It’s something I guess. I guess I turn into a zombie today. I’ve been working two jobs, but I’ll try to update tonight on what it’s like to be a zombie. Sounds fun. The anniversary of Nick’s death was rough. I’ve had a few rough days in the last month, sometimes […]

I’ve been doing DoorDash lately. I had the summer off, and was living in my head too much. Today, someone bought a bunch of cereal from Walgreens (through DoorDash) and I was assigned to deliver it – to the local food bank. Kinda cool. Last week, someone came up to me while I was waiting […]

Monday would have been my step-son’s 23rd birthday. We have a memorial dinner planned and have invited a number of people – ones that were important parts of his life. His mom and grandmother’s deaths might have been part of why he felt he needed to do what he did. (The phrase I was looking […]

Read the rest of Too much time in my head

You know I had to bring it up 😀 I’ve been playing on the OpenAI website when time permits, and I’ve been doing some looking/research at how it affects cybersecurity. It’s not all fun and games. My oldest and I were talking Saturday night about ChatGPT. Some of our conversation made me think. I’ve used […]
