Hello friends, It's been a while, hasn't it? That's my fault. I've been in quite an emotional whirlwind these past few months and I'm only now trying to climb out of the pit I've been in. Things were less than great for me for a bit. I'm still not ready to tell the internet fully … Continue reading quick ramble
I think I've reached a new limit. The point at which i feel like I'm going to crack up. The point at which i feel like my chest will explode if I don't do something.

I'm glad my husband isn't an asshole. Not that he can't be. He just isn't when I need support. He's wonderful about being my biggest cheerleader apart from my mother.

If anyone tells you depression is fake or easy to deal with, you should question their sanity. It's the hardest thing about my life. Having to make the conscious decision to keep going. Not daily. Sometimes hourly. Sometimes minute by minute. I have to keep trying to put one foot in front of the other … Continue reading Day 57: Reflection
It never fails to amaze me that there are still so many people in the world that like to ruin other people's good times. It's wild.
