Endless
If you could have one thing, what would it be and why? In the past, I would have said “if only I could go back…” But going back is a waste of time. The strongest memories we tend to have are the negative ones, aren’t they? The problem with our minds is that over time,… Continue reading

It Was A Scary Time
After my grandma died, my granddad needed help. I already lived with them, so I dropped out of college to get a job and help him pay bills. I also had to learn how to do laundry, grocery shop, cook more than eggs or oatmeal and balance a checkbook and deal with checks. Back then,… Continue reading

I Talk About It All The…

The man wanted… Continue reading

Tiny Trinkets
I have an old aluminum tin that was once used for black licorice. Inside it, I have a few notes my grandmother wrote to excuse me from class. I also had some of those little cards with the name and definition of a person’s name. I had hers in there. I think it’s still in… Continue reading

Past And Present
In the past, I did a very poor job. My life literally revolved around work. I molded my personal life around it. I didn’t take care of much at home at all, and I should have because I was caring for another person. I was often too tired to do anything when I got off.… Continue reading
