Enslaved
You can’t run. You can’t hide. You can’t win. You can’t live without me. You can’t be free of me. I own you. We own you. What do we think about that? Hard pass right? No matter whatever ‘that’ is, it’s a no go. I agree, yet every one of us is a slave. We are bought and sold by an entity, that has managed to have something we all need. They dangle it over our heads, but you never actually get the reward. They do. All of it.

Dumpster Fire
Everything is ruined. There is no way to fix it. What am I going to do? This is so unfair! Life is full of surprises, and some are not welcome ones. In fact, life tends to test you to the very ends of your nerves and emotions. There is no way to avoid it or the tragedies that spring up, but they can be weathered, if you sit back and take a breather.

When the Village Seriously Matters
Parents, I am going to let you in on a secret. It does take a village to raise a child. It is invaluable if and only if, your village is worthy and genuinely cares. Who the village consists of is not as important as the quality and commitment they have for you and your family. But I assure you, parents, at some point in the raising of your family, you will need them to have your back and that of your children’s.

Why Didn't Anyone Tell Us. Top Story - March 2026.
Men, move along. This is not for you. This is for the women. I was forty-five when I began menopause. It is pretty young for that to be going on in a woman’s life, but I had undiagnosed PCOS, my entire life. Thank you to all the gynecologists I had seen my entire life. That in itself should encourage women to keep seeking second opinions, especially when you are not getting correct answers or any at all.

Nothing Matters More
I love the hypocrisy of the progressive woman today. They taut liberation and freedom to be whatever we want to be, after all, we fought for those rights and privileges, but then, they crucify any of us who then choose to stay home, to be wives and mothers. Why are my choices less important or rejected as ridiculous? Why are we made to look like we are simply ignorant or uneducated, because we made a life decision, that they don’t agree with? I sometimes wonder about this.

Doing the Wash
Congress. An entity of our government that is supposed to be working for us, is just a money laundering criminal endeavor. If you aren't paying attention to what our government does, then you are part of the problem.Money laundering is a crime, and we are funding it.

A New Song
A New Song I woke up the other day and heard this new song. It seemed a bit familiar, but I could not place it. I don’t know where it was coming from either. So I smiled and listened to it. It was one of the most beautiful songs, I have heard in a long time.

Unplug
I am one of those people that unplugs items around the house when I go on a trip. I do it because I want to protect and keep the things I find valuable, from anything happening to them, in the even of a power surge or some other king of natural event that would cause a power outage, or surge. My computer is number one on my list. I use it for my writing and I can’t afford to lose my work. Preservation of high value items is wise, I believe. I’m probable not the only one who does this. So if we protect our “things” like this, why aren’t we protecting our most valuable thing in life, our mental health?

Thieves Among Us
I go to the mailbox to get the mail every day. I usually like getting mail. I often have cool things coming and it’s like a mini Christmas. I like mail. Shoot me. I don’t really know why, I just do. I think I like collecting something that I don’t expect and opening it up to find some nice magazine, a card, or some small thing I have ordered. Yes, I know something I order is coming, but it’s still nice when you get it.
