I don’t do New Year’s resolutions because I find the end of the year to be an artificial marker of time, but in this case, I’m making an exception. Why? Because I died twice this year. If that’s not a reason to be glad to see the back side of this year, I don’t know… Continue Reading
A new year is a strange thing. We put all this weight on it especially after a year like last year. How many of us (including me) vocalized our relief at seeing the backend of 2020? It was as if we felt we could collectively turn the page once the clock rolled over from 11:59… Continue Reading
It’s a new year and thank the gods for that. 2020 was a trash heap dumpster fire of a year that we never need to talk about again. I’m thinking about what I want to do this year. Not in the way of setting resolutions because I’m not about that. Or goals, either. The problem… Continue Reading
It’s the day of the eve of New Year, and I’m doing the tiniest bit better. I had a horrible night in which I was shivering and sweating alternately.

It didn’t pop into a full migraine for the rest of the day, but it also didn’t dissipate after an hour as it normally does. I am still dealing with it now, but at… Continue Reading
One of the worst things about my depression is how it makes everything at least twice as difficult. I am my own worst enemy, as I have noted time and time again. For those who have never experienced depression, it can be difficult to comprehend just how time consuming it is. A small example: when… Continue Reading
I don’t have much use for New Year resolutions, but I’ve been finding myself at odds in the last month or so, and I’m not sure why. It could be because of the anniversary of the lost of my beloved Raven, or it might just be that time of year. At any rate, I’ve been… Continue Reading
It’s the end of 2017, and I, for one, am not sorry to see the back end of it. It’s been a lousy year politically, and there hasn’t been much for me to crow about, personally, either. I lost my beloved Raven at the end of 2016, and I still think about him almost every… Continue Reading
