Well, I initially started writing this post as an update to previous blog postings, but after I spent the weekend cringing every time my phone would alert me to a new blog comment on the posting “I didn’t win the battle,” I’m going to go back and explain some things that probably should have been explained in
Y’all want to hear about the time my drunk ass was caught throwing shoes at a guy’s window at two thirty in the morning and then I shot a dude with a gun? Sure ya do. Seriously though, did I call it, or did I call it when I said that my only hope was
It’s time for another edition of “things that just make you ask why?” Courtesy of Eden’s phone. Why did I call the police, which is something I never do because I don’t trust the police? Because the guy at the car wash hit my car with his cleaner cart and refused to give me the
This past week I was asked to speak to a group of women about my nonprofit. I was told it was going to be about 30 women and to just talk a little bit about my past and about how the nonprofit had come about. I used to do quite a bit of public/motivational speaking
I was reading through my old Facebook statuses from the last couple year or so and I realized something, my kids are every bit as strange as I am. I now bring you “Eden’s life with children, compliments of cut and paste from her Facebook.” When I picked the boy child up from daycare, I
It’s been a while since I have updated you on previous postings, so I figured it was probably time to do that! As I said in my previous post The “Exorcism Is Near,” the nutcase neighbors are moving!! One select finger has been waving them good-bye every time I drive by their house. That probably
I run on a near daily basis. Miles upon miles fly by under my feet and while I run for exercise, I also run for a deeper purpose. I run because it is a very controlled way to deal with the anxieties of my past. For a long time, running was the only coping mechanism
Just as a quick update since a lot of you have asked, no I haven’t gone to see my mother yet. I called my father and asked to meet with them, to which he said they will “think about it.” Figures. They bug the hell out of me trying to get me to get in
I never delete the text messages from my phone. I’m not sure why, I just don’t. The other day I was waiting to go into a meeting and I was sort of just scrolling through my old text messages and I started thinking about how weird I am. Seriously, who talks like this with their
I’ve really only ever punched one person. It was in the locker room in high school. I was in my underwear. I got suspended for it. Yup, that happened. We had gone running that day in gym class and when we got back to the locker room the teacher ordered all of us to get
So, mother’s day is coming up, which for single parents or people who are childless not by choice, can be very much like Valentine’s Day for single people. I was sitting around with a group of single mom’s a few weeks ago and the topic of Mother’s Day came up. I listened as they talked
Two posts ago I answered the most asked question, “what happened to your sister” when I opened the floor to you guys in the post “Super Fast Post” and gave you the opportunity to ask me anything you wanted. Today we are going to tackle the most debated question; “What does it feel like to
My husband said he was going to the store... and never came back. It's been a crazy life that's left me functional enough to survive yet dysfunctional enough to make me funny.
