Improvements
So I want to celebrate some little improvements. I haven’t made any grand discoveries or major improvements, but a lot of little things. First, I have been able to get my blood sugars down to 120 once this week, right before dinner. I was shaking because I am not accustomed to this low of a blood sugar, but it was only for 15 minutes or so. Also, in the same vein, I did not shoot sky high after…
Disappointment
Well, I have good news and bad news. The doctor says that my torn rotator is not bad enough to require surgery because I can sort of move my arm. The bad news is that they can do nothing for me other than a little more physical therapy. I can’t put my bra on alone. I can barely do my hair. Because I have terrible health insurance, the doctor said he can not do surgery. So this is just life…
Grief
Most of the time, when someone feels a heavy sadness, an event can be pointed to easily. My friend’s husband died. She is grieving the loss of her best friend. He isn’t here anymore. She is finding it hard to move through life without him. Her sadness is easy to understand and identify. The world mourns with her and sees her sadness. They support her and uplift her. I do too. I feel for her. I…
Seventy Percent of Farmers
“Mom, they say that seventy percent of farmers do not have enough fertilizer to grow food.” Ian brought to my attention. He has been watching YouTube news. He is interested in agriculture because he likes to eat. It’s the same reason I am interested in agriculture. “I know, son,” I say offhand as I am reading a job details section. “Requires a laptop,” I mutter. My laptop is toast and has been…

Same Look
Paul has had the same look in his eyes…but he wasn’t chasing me with a blade…he had me trapped in the bathroom. Then my son stepped in. Thank you, Lord for all the little boys out there who protect their mammas.
Taken Care Of
Ian grabbed the fatty flesh of my underarm. “This is probably why your arm hurts,” he told me. “It can’t be healthy.” I was annoyed. “It’s not healthy. What has you so concerned about my weight?” I was driving again, for another Field Data Collection Specialist Job. This one was a simple documentation of a home on a nice suburban street, sixty miles away from my home. We were currently on the…

Woken Up
Written May 31st, 2026 Last night I didn’t go to bed on time. I worked late, had too many chores to finish, and a raccoon decided to start a fight with my porch cats right before bed. This scared the Bejesus out of me. I spent another half hour calming myself after the raccoon. At 10 pm, well past my normal bedtime lately, I dragged my sorry body into bed tired, sore, hot, and generally…

Dating?
My therapist brought it up. “Have you thought about dating?” I laughed that nervous laugh, “Well, first I have to finish going to court.” “Right,” she agreed. “But do you intend to date or not?” “Maybe, eventually… I don’t need to right now.” I told her. That’s where I left it. I think she is trying to nudge me to think about the most logical next step most people will assume I am going to…

MRI just dropped
I have a partially torn rotator cuff. I also have arthritis of the clavicle, probably from overcompensating for a screwed rotator cuff. Probably gonna need fing surgery. The good news is that it is NOT 100% torn. Let’s celebrate that…but man, this sucker hurts.

Child-Centered Education as a Model
Public schools and institutional schools as a whole have a very difficult time providing child-centered education that is tailored to each child’s needs. Although private schools tend to do a better job overall, this sort of education can only be truly effective in a smaller setting, one-on-one with a governess or in a homeschooling program. This is precisely why wealthier families in the past…
