Hello/ Grandkids

Hello everyone how are you doing? I hope your all well and enjoying your weekend. Here’s how mine started off….. I woke up at 5am which is normal for me. I love waking up early and enjoying a cup of coffee while everyone else is sleeping. My youngest grandson is spending the weekend with me

Hello/Checking-In

Hello my blogging buddies hope all is well in your part of the world. So the other day I wrote that I was taking a little break from blogging. I actually started my break before I wrote that post, so officially my break was a couple weeks ago. I needed a mental “re-charge” from life.

Bringing In The New Year With OCD Pt. 1

Every year around this time  I hear tons of people excitingly discuss their plans to bring in the new year. Some have gatherings at their homes, some go out to clubs, while some prefer to stay home and treat it as any other ordinary day. And then there is me. As most of you already

Reflecting On Life

Quick Check In

PANIC ATTACKS

As if having ocd wasn’t bad enough, I also get panic attacks. I know so many people have experienced it but how do they handle it? It comes on out of nowhere.  I feel it in my feet, a strange numbing feeling that creeps through my whole body causing me to shake with fear. Some
