In-law/Out-law
I was 9 months pregnant and we were looking at daycares for Audrey, my two year old daughter. This all stemmed from Tonnie and Allen telling me that it was a little too much for them to watch Audrey anymore at the flower ...

Inspired yet again by another SOML story. A gentlemen talked about how society is more dangerous in his town and kids are destroying things. A comment was made of kids wanting so much all the time. Here are my thoughts ...

Is there a Doctor in the house?
The light went out in Columbia. Somebody snuffed it out. It’s ok. I can take it. My skin’s getting tougher. That long dark tunnel is my home now. I don’t need a light to see where I’m going. I’m already living in ...

Little Remnant
I sat down on a large flat rock at the bank of the river. The sky was overcast and gray reflecting on the still water just the same. Few trees were scattered along the riverbank some bare, some evergreen. The cold damp ground ...

Get out of my face!
2-6-10
Just another day. He made dinner, which I always thank him for and then I clean up. Kids were put to bed. Oh. My. God. I can’t remember why he was mad at me. It was only 2 days ago.
Help.
He was angry for a while ...

The elephant
She walked in as she did two years ago, oblivious to the subtle changes in the color of the walls and to the addition of more offices. The second glass door was locked. Confused, she looked around and saw another door to the ...

Oopsy or Audrey's our Hero!
Audrey crawled into our bed at 3 am on Sunday morning and sweetly asks “Mommy, why is there water on the floor and on the carpet?”
I quickly got up and walked out of my bedroom and right into what seemed like a couple inches ...

Boom Boom Out Go The Lights
I haven’t watched football in decades. I used to hang out with my girlfriends at the bar and I really got into it. Two decades and two kids later…well, who has time and really, who cares?
The old guys at work talk every day ...

Are you kidding me?
I don't even know how to identify myself. I can't see myself through all the makeup. I don't feel like a person. I'm a mother.
I'm going to whine now. I come home from working the weekend and Mike was home with the kids all ...

Divorce in Las Vegas?
A couple days ago, I dreaded coming home. I asked God to intervene. I asked him to take this burden from my shoulders because I couldn’t do it anymore. I asked the Holy Spirit to fill me even though I didn’t feel like it.

I must be the pinnacle of stress. You know the list they give you at some place or another. Like at the doctor’s office or at work. There’s the list of stressors that could be a clear indication of depression. I know I would ...

Hope Unlooked For
Dark were my days, and grey was all scenery.
Hope was all lost and all light extinguished.
Pain, like the scouring winds of the desert,
Eroding my life, destroying my soul.
Voices I’ve heard, harsh laughter inside
Screaming ...
