Well, I missed yesterday as far as my blog goes. By the time I realized I hadn't done it, it was after eight at night. By that time, my brain is turned off for the day.

It was an odd day, anyway. It was about an hour or two after Steve woke up, and he asked me,
"Is today our wedding anniversary?"
After being quarantined for the last three months, I didn't have a direct answer.
So, once we confirmed what day and date it was, we realized, it was indeed our wedding anniversary.
Twelve years ago yesterday, Steve and I were married in Canada, at Niagara Falls. One of the best days of my life.
(On June 7th, it will be twenty-nine years that we've been together.)

There wasn't much for us to be able to do for the special day yesterday, but we made it as nice as we could. We spent a lot of time out on the patio enjoying the nice weather. Steve cooked ribs all day, and when we ate them around six or so, you just needed a fork to push the meat off the bone. I'm not much of a foodie, but Steve makes great ribs.
We closed the day out with an episode of Game of Thrones. Oddly enough, it was the episode with the red wedding. It's still awful to watch, no matter how many times we've seen it. What a better way to celebrate a wedding anniversary? 😕

Twenty-nine years together.
People say to make a relationship work it take a lot of hard work. But I don't feel like ours takes a lot of work. Obviously, there were struggles in the beginning, just like all relationships. Plus, we were in our 20's! Seems like forever ago.

But as far as the hard work now goes . . . I think what we struggle most with is trying to spend more time with each other and reach our dreams of that forever home. 

The picture above is from five years ago when we first moved to Woodland Park. What a ride it's been. What an adventure it's been. I can't imagine having done it with anyone else.

Stay safe. Mask up. Protect others. 💓

We've started a new year. We've started a new opportunity to be a better person. A happier person. It's no secret that I'm one of the worst bloggers around. Why? Because no one reads it. And that had been a difficult thing for me to handle for years. So I feel I don't need to try.  2018 was a bad year. No only because there's a new problem with the cunt in the White House every day, but with people in general. People have gotten more violent and uncaring. As a society, it is clear that we are declining.  It's been extremely difficult attempting to stay positive over the last 12+ months. But that is going to change. I am going to fight for positivity. No more depression. No more doubting myself or my writing. If people don't want to read my blog, big fucking deal! I don't care anymore. The time for change is now! No more thoughts of suicide (yes, there have been days). No more self-depreciation. I will do whatever I can to be successful

Freedom of Speech?

  It’s been a while since I’ve posted here. It’s been a while since I’ve done any type of writing. I don’t even have a website anymore. I wasn’t planning on writing anything, probably eve again, but lately, things have been changing.  The “Supreme” Court has been making very dangerous changes to the laws in our country. Particularly six of the judges. Six CONSERVATIVE judges, who are forcing us to go back to the 1950’s! Their latest stunt is allowing businesses to discriminate against LGBT+ people if they don’t want to serve them, because it’s against their religion. They’re claiming it falls under the First Amendment: freedom of speech.  Oh, yeah, we’ll, here’s some freedom of speech for you: Fuck them!!! Fuck all Republicans!!! Fuck Donald tRump and his illiterate cult. Fuck all the ignorant morons who claim being “woke” is bad.  Here’s, some freedom of speech: I wish I was able to tell the cunt that walks in wearing a MAGA terrorist hat that their not welcome in our place of busines

Finished another one

After an almost seven month break from writing, yesterday I finished another book. It is the first installment of a new new trilogy called My Leprechaun . The first book is titled The End of the Rainbow . I'm excited about this series, but I'm also filled with angst. Finishing a book and getting it ready to put out into the world and see what it does is usually an exciting time. There's always that chance that this book will be the one that puts my name on the map. In pure blog openness,  that's what I had hoped for when I released Reunion last October. It was my first ghost story, and I thought it would make a huge splash. But it didn't. I fought for months just to get a few reviews.  The excitement fizzled and faded. And something inside me turned off. That was the start of my break from writing.  I was sure I was done working so hard for nothing in return. But there was this story that I had wanted to tell for years. I had almost finished the first draft months
