I’ve been a bit down the last few weeks. As many of you have reminded me, grief has its own timetable. I’m still processing. As a psychologist, I’m self-reflecting, noting that I may perhaps be in the anger stage of grief. Being angry doesn’t ease the grief. It’s […]
I have not had a lot of time as of late to sit down and write. Work, useless discussions, tears, and feelings of guilt have dominated my time. It’s a merry-go-round of emotions around here lately. And, moments of introspection and reflection book-end my days. It is with […]
January’s have been hard for me. I’ve lost three dear loved ones in past January’s. When I seemingly got through this past Friday, the 13th, I breathed a sigh of relief. That was foolish of me. I sit here having cried for two days now. Grief never goes […]

Our pets are our family members. Plain and simple. Today, I just have a small bit to share. Our family turtle, whose nane was squirtle (as so named by my son), passed away. He traveled cross-country with us from Los Angeles to New York. He loved the car […]
