My 30’s really have been about watching our friends lose themselves to their addictions as we keep trying to rescue them and it’s killing us all.

Today, on St Brigid’s Day/ Imbolc, I’d like to remind myself that I am a poet, a mother, and a witch. I have to stop standing in my own way and get back to my hardworking roots.

For every mistake we make as parents, I am reminded that our kid casually dropped that he thinks he’s queer into conversation without fear or shame and that makes me feel like it’s all gonna be okay.

I’ve been pretty quiet on SM this year and that’s for good reason. 2025 has hit us with some of the worst curve balls you could think of.
We started the year with a stage 3 cancer diagnosis for my FIL and are ending it with a mass on my mom’s kidney. It’s been hard on us, and especially on our kids.

We’re officially the parents who gross their kids out because we like each other. Last night our 12 y/o saw us kissing in the kitchen and said “ew. Don’t you guys have a bedroom? 🙄”

My 12 year old is having his first friend sleepover tonight and it’s wild how nervous I am to watch their friendship develop. I just don’t want him to ever experience the hurt I did.

We have entered the part of the year when all my past trauma bubbles up to the surface to remind me that I am still that scared little girl just begging to be loved.

My only precognitive dreams are about pregnancy and death, this somehow makes sense to me.

Sometimes after receiving rejection letters I get discouraged.
But I was just searching through my work for one poem in particular, and I am a really fucking good poet.
Eventually the work will find its home and the world will see that.

I have barely seen anyone other than my aunt, my kids, and my spouse since breaking my ankle in August. So that means I’m extra excited to host horror movie night in a couple of weeks.

After the mishap with that little mag last month and my 6 weeks of isolation while recovering, my work as a poet has definitely taken a hit.
I had no inspiration for so long and my confidence in myself and my work plummeted.
I hope I can spend the last few months of the year getting back to it.
