I failed yesterday. Life threw its chaos at me, and I didn’t manage to share my Throwback Thursday post. But here it is, a day late, and oh, how it pulls at my heartstrings. Written in 2017, revisiting it fills me with a bittersweet ache for the woman I once was. On the surface, I… Continue reading Throw Back Thursday (on a Friday!): Warpaint (1/10/2017)

Throw Back Thursday (When The Storm Comes 11/15/2016)
For this reflection post, I thought it was time to take a fresh look at this blog I wrote about my rocky relationship with my mom—or maybe more accurately, the huge void where that relationship should be.
