Sometimes its more than just a roof.

 12/13/2022 When we send texts, make calls, answer emails, etc.  We think what a miniscule interaction it is to us and the person on the other end of the line.  The simple error of a calling someone the wrong name, is not simple.  The assumption that this wrong name doesn't hold so many emotions, good bad and ugly. I have always been lucky enough to be happy with my name.  I am lucky enough to be happy with the gender I was assigned at birth. I am lucky enough to be in a safe relationship. I am lucky enough.      Today, I asked someone if they wanted any information about a product my company is offering to current and previous customers. Simple customer service, right?      The person at the other end of the simple text I sent, was covered with emotions of trauma and experiences I will never know or understand.

Process…

 I have to process what happened since everything was going right and then crashed, burned, and has to be rebuilt.  We could start from the very beginning but I would never finish. Let’s start from what’s fresh in the brains trauma factory.  I spent many days in the hospital last month surviving, trying to do everything in my power to stay alive. I have friends, family, and my husband and children who need me. I saw all of those people as a purpose to fight. They are worthy of winning the hardest battles. The only person I was actually saving, was myself. I didn’t think about that person. The one I wake up with every day, the only person that knows me and what I’m thinking and feeling in the darkest depths of my soul. I have to survive so I can learn to live, live with myself. Love myself, continue to work on myself. Evolve myself, if I can do that, I’m teaching those I love and survey for how to do the same. So? I wrote down 4 words.. Process. Create. Save. Learn.  ...

Hi. Welcome back, lets pick up from where we last left off. The timeline leading here is ummm... a lot of dumpster fires... /but here we are. IT'S FINE. a little update on the good bad and UGLY-2022. I had a boy named George Wolfgang. He is 5 and ginger.  I have a kid named Ace, they are 10 and my life guide.  Mary is a  freshman at Ohio State majoring in Psychology and dating a lil sailor.  Jane, my baby jane is 15, desperate to drive a manual shift car, she has MS, had brain surgery and is so smart. Donald Trump was the president.  We are 2 years deep in a global pandemic.  I have lost countless people I love figuratively and literally.  My family lost everything in a fire on Mothers day 2021.  I am recovering from Covid pneumonia and have 5 nodules on my lungs. TBD But, I found myself again. Lets call her Willow. She's my inner child and my heart.  Get ready, because here I come.

Phoenix

phoe·nix ˈfēniks/ noun (in classical mythology) a unique bird that lived for five or six centuries in the Arabian desert, after this time burning itself on a funeral pyre and rising from the ashes with renewed youth to live through another cycle. a person or thing regarded as uniquely remarkable in some respect. **copied and pasted from Google** Last Thursday, Mary was accepted to Phoenix Middle School!! The second definition of the word Phoenix describes her perfectly and when I wrote about her on the application to the school, I used the same words to describe her but I never knew she was a Phoenix. She is definitely going to the right Middle School!!  Our family is so proud of her and looking forward to her experiences.
