I was walking through a busy airport a couple of weeks ago and got really upset about phones. Absolutely no one was talking to anyone or interacting with their families or people they were traveling with. Everyone was buried in their screens. Small children were being ignored. Mouths were...

Universal Truth #35 The two most common elements in the universe are hydrogen and stupidity. Universal Truth #49 You never know what you've got till it's gone. No matter how much it pranced under your nose, wearing nothing but underwear and sticking a banana in its ear to get your attention.

After reading all these posts I felt compelled to reply, but doubt this will go over well. My primary Abuser had a huge anger problem and an explosive temper. His anger terrified me my entire life until his death. His anger played a huge role in all the forms of abuse I suffered. What helped me...

I just saw this. They mowed it down! How awful! I would have been devastated! Who doesn't want flowers?? It's been too cold here to start planting yet, but my husband marked it out (I think it's too small but he says if my chronic pain can handle it with the rest of the gardens we can make it...

Universal Truth # 303 Nothing is ever where you last left it.

Ah yes, the betrayal of "friends." I can actually laugh about this first one now, but at the time I felt like I'd experienced a death. My bestie and I did everything together. Her name was (for real) Karen. We discovered each other after I moved to a new city after getting married. We both...
