I recently shared one of my therapy assignments where it was all about me going back to that time immediately after I found out about the affair between my hubby and Erin. Allowing myself to go back and live in those moments of anger. What did I feel in those moments? My last therapy somehow …

beyond the anger
I've been in therapy for a little over two years. My therapist is amazing. I have loved her since day one. However...that doesn't mean that I've been open as a book with her. I haven't intentionally held things back from her since the very beginning when we were just feeling each other out to see …
here goes nothing
Remember when I said that I had an assignment from therapy and I wasn't ready to share? Well...here we go. Unedited except for a couple names. Warning: this is literally written based on the thoughts that came to my mind. It’s not necessarily in the order that would make the most sense or in a …
no right answer
We are not perfect (shocking, I know). We are far from it. We make mistakes. We make poor choices. We are selfish. We make excuses. Then there are moments where we realize that we fucked it up. That the decisions that we've made have hurt those we love. Maybe those decisions are something that we …
its been too long
Part 1: It's been far too long since I've had even a moment where I liked the body I was in. We're talking about 6ish years ago. Back before grad school. Back when I was stuck in my dead-end job. Back when I thought I was fat. Oh how hindsight is 20/20. What I would …

music took me back
Music has this amazing way of taking me back to points in time that I may not have thought about in years. There are certain ones that take us all back...graduation songs. Wedding songs. Then there are songs that you didn't realize you had that type of memory associated with. I'm a musician. Or at …
why now?
It's been over a year since I've talked to John in any way shape or form. It was a year ago that he told me that we were just "having fun" and that I should not even think about him until I apologized to his wife. It has been a year of trying to forget …
how is she 12?
My daughter recently celebrated her 12th birthday. Where does the time go? I swear that I'm not old enough to have a 12 year old (let's not actually talk about my age). She is turning out to be an amazing young lady. She is thoughtful and kind. She is smart and a hard worker. She …
