I went to Canada a couple of weeks ago and the trip required two layovers and quite a bit of time in the airport. Fun fact about me is I almost always get sick after I travel. This trip was no different. I arrived home on a Monday and was coughing by Tuesday afternoon. By …
2018 Year end review
There are only 4 more days left of 2018... FOUR MORE DAYS. It seems like only yesterday I was running into 2018 with optimism hope for love and happiness and all things positive. https://fightingformysunshine.com/2018/01/02/happy-new-year-2018/ And here we are... a year has passed. But not much else has changed. Don't get me wrong... there's been growth. …
The Anxiety Effect
I'm going to be 100% real with you... I suffer from anxiety/depression. It's only affected my life for the past 2 years or so. I'm amazing at masking it but found it harder and harder to do for the past couple of years. The changes were subtle. So subtle that I didn't really realize what …
My boys
We pray every night. We ask God to cover all that is special to us, we thank him for all of our blessings, and in those prayers we thank God for each other. I can't begin to thank God enough for the blessings that are the both of you. The night before last B2, you …
Switching jobs, doing a little dating and celebrating anniversaries… been busy.
Work... I found out about two months ago that my job was going to be moving me to another position. It was a semi lateral move due to a change the company is going through but according to everyone I work with this was going to be the best move for me. My nerves were …

Stopping by to say hi
It's been quite a while since I've written anything but as always... here I am. So much has changed so much remains the same. Both boys are in football. B2 is turning four and BJ has started 2nd grade. I'm working for a company that doesn't stress me out. And outside of the normal day …
Another milestone.
Today was the first day of football practice for this season. BJ moved up to tackle and this year B2 took the field for flag. Both boys are now in football. B2 is one of the youngest on the team but the coach said he did better than a lot of kids who start at …
Smiling
It seems I do most of my deepest thinking at work (I'm not sure why that is). But I seem to sit here while typing and my mind will wander off to how I'm feeling and what I'm thinking at the moment. And today... I realized that I'm actually feeling okay. Not in the manic, …
Peace of mind
I was at the gym (see yesterday's healthier me post) changing into my work out clothes when one of the lady's who works in the kids club comes running in frantic. BJ had been running and playing (as kids do) and ran into a sharp edge of a window divider. He was going to need …
Mother’s Day… a rambling post LOL.
Mother's Day was last weekend... and down the rabbit hole I went. I'm not sure when I'll ever get to a family holiday and not miss Byron, not think about what should have been... I should have had breakfast cooked for me and spent the day irritated that Byron went to work even though it …
