Have you ever been mad at a message? I saw this and thought, how in the world am I supposed to leave my old life behind? My ex will always be part of my life, making as much of a mess as he can...

The face of chronic health problems- today at St. George City's Founder's Day, my kids got free root beer floats, rode a carousel and mini train, and played around at a couple of parks. Me? I spent most of the time lying down in the car. My mantra this year is "Beauty in the Now."

Every. single. day. of. my. life...

My intention for the year. Thanks Mary Oliver!

Does anyone else on a healing journey love smash journaling? I love how creative you can be with these.

This is being a woman in America: Having another woman say she needs to move because her ex found out where they live... then not hearing from her, and looking up her name in obituaries. This is our reality. THIS is why women choose the bear.

My intentions for the year:

I need a wife! Not sexually, I want the role of a man who can simply go to work and come home while everything is magically done by someone else #emotionallabor. I have about 20 concerns rolling around in my head at all times, and it would be nice to have someone share the mental load.

Two things can be true:
I love my big family
AND
Holidays with TBMs as an exmo are extremely difficult. I'm still processing and figuring out boundaries.
