I haven’t brushed my hair today.
Shit, I don’t think I have even brushed my teeth.
Food? Meh.
I started getting ready for work when the wave hit me. Grief, nausea, hatred, anger, sadness.
All at once it slammed into my chest and my brain shattered into a million pieces.
I spent almost 10 minutes looking for Boos school pants […]

At peace.
I have only seen my father cry twice in my life.
The first time was after the traumatic birth of Moo.

We had moved to a new town.
Packed everything we owned to chase a dream of fame and fortune in a desolate area surrounded by dried up lakes that once were tourist attractions. Huge mountains that people came from far and wide to camp and climb.

what do you see?
What do you see, really see when you see a family with an obviously disabled child?

It has been a hard week. A week of tears. Of frustration. A week of unbelievable lows, rising to bearable, then crashing down. Lower, deeper, dirtier than I care to be.
A hard week. Thankfully […]

This post brought to you from the rocking corner.
I am surrounded by empty chocolate wrappers and have worn a dint in the carpet from the rocking.
But man, that rockin’ is great for the abs.
Cradling a glass of Mint Baileys with tons of ice, the air con blowing in my face.
