The past couple of posts I’ve referred to Maurice as being an amazing man. Only six months after moving in together my mental health began to deteriorate very quickly. Though it was early in our relationship, he didn’t run for the hills. He stayed by my side and helped in more ways than I can […]
What Makes Maurice so Amazing
Maurice and I met online. Our first date was like a dream. We spent the night laying on the beach under a full moon while we talked for hours. The night went perfect in every way and we both knew this was going to be more than a one night gig. We spent a lot […]
There is a Delay
Yesterday I posted about how Maurice and I met. I said there would be more to the story today, but, unfortunately with tests coming up and essays, I won’t be able to post anything until Wednesday. I’m sorry to keep you in suspense, but finding out why Maurice is the most amazing man I ever […]
The Most Amazing Man I Have Ever Met
About a decade ago I was in a relationship that ended badly – very badly. I mean World War III badly. It just didn’t end well at all. Afterwards I did something I very rarely do, I learned from the experience. I promised myself that I wasn’t going to seek a relationship. All I wanted […]
What the Hell?
Last week I was so proud of myself. I ate healthier than normal. I ate smaller portions than normal. I did a lot of outdoor walking as well as using the treadmill and elliptical at school. I was really sticking to the Weight Watchers plan. I weighed in today at 214.6 which means I gained […]
Is Honesty the Best Policy?
I was running a bit manic in January so my pdoc changed my meds a bit, which you may have seen me whine about here. Today when I met with him he asked how it’s going and I told him that I think he needs to adjust my meds back because I’ve felt so drained […]
It’s a Tie!
Thank you Nuna and Alana for your great quotes this week. You both are winners. ( I already knew that anyway ) “Caption This Wednesday” is going to go away for a little while. I think it’s best to wait until readership goes back up since I’ve returned. Don’t worry, though, I have plenty of great […]

Multiple entries are allowed but each entry must be on it’s own post. The lucky winner will be announced on Thursday and will have the proud honor of having their name typed […]
Water: The Finale
The past couple of posts I made were regarding living near the water. As a young kid we lived near Lake Michigan. As a teenager I lived in North Carolina. Though the beaches in North Carolina were hours away from where we lived, it was still exciting to live in a state that had a coastal […]
Life Along The Water
This past Friday I mentioned the picture above, the header of this blog, is one that I took at Hermosa Beach. Hermosa is where you’ll frequently find me walking in the mornings. Why did I choose that picture to define me? The answer to that is what I hope to find in these posts. I […]
