This is my life. This blog began as a journey into my 40s', but last year, my 40's took a detour when I became a widow in February. Last year, I wrote, "year 5, you scare the shit out of me," and now I know why. In life, there are no accidents...nope. 2017, show me what you got. My 5 year old and I are ready for these new days ahead with the clean, the messy, and the musings of a recovering shitshow addict.

5/20/2012...week 13 of 40
This past week I decided to finally create this blog. I finally felt like I had something to share, and I needed a place to do it. But, the truth is--whether or not it is shared, it is my "something," and isn't that enough? Why must everything "be worthy" of a place for its story? ... This past week I saw a side of me that I like-- the giving side. I made a decision about how I can give back more to my community, and I am proud of it. I also saw a side of me that I don't like. The side where I don't think before I speak--but in this case it was in text which is worse because you get to re-read the stuff you didn't think about before you said it/sent it--grr!!. I made that mistake several times, and yeah, I am working on it. So, this week of 40...I can simply say...2 steps forward and a step backward. But, at least-I am taking steps. I also realized this week my daughter reminds me of me...I see me in her...I joke about it-people tell me about it, but this week, I saw it. --pretty damn amazing.
