What’s the biggest lie that you’ve been told? I’ve been lied to. A lot. Especially of late by a certain individual. However, the biggest lie I’ve been told came a few years ago. It happened a few years ago. My son had just turned 2 and we had the paternal side of the family overContinue reading “The Biggest Lie You’ve Been Told..?”

Mental Health Revamp
I know that I’m not the first person having to deal with mental health issues, and I know I won’t be the last. Each situation is as unique as the individual and circumstanes involved, as is the solution to help guide the individual through to the other side. As I look at the system asContinue reading “Mental Health Revamp”
When The World Sees Black & White
…but you’ve been stuck in the grey zone for awhile. No two situations are alike, but somehow you get judged based on someone else’s experience. And when it’s made clear that you’re path may not be as straight & arrow as someone else’s, due to the grey zone, judgements are made as to why ‘youContinue reading “When The World Sees Black & White”
‘I Walk A Lonely Road…’
Overwhelmed. Overstimulated. Frustrated. Burnt out. Alone. Lost. I’m tired of sounding like a broken record. I’m tired of the same advice. What do I need? I need someone to be able to physically take my place for multiple hours so i can take an uninterupted break. I need to be able to sleep for moreContinue reading “‘I Walk A Lonely Road…’”
It’s Okay If…
Everyone has their moments where all they’re trying to do is make it to the end of the day. Sometimes, it may be just trying to survive the hour. Regardless of the situation that put you there, getting out of the ‘rut’ always proves to be the most difficult. This past weekend, my mental healthContinue reading “It’s Okay If…”
Mental Health
By the time my son was six months old, I knew something was wrong. Mentally, I knew I wasn’t myself. Trying to explain that to others seemed damned near impossible. It got explained away as a normal part of motherhood. By the time my son was a year and a half, I had my firstContinue reading “Mental Health”
The Lonely Road…
So, my husband was able to visit for about a week. During that time, I was able to get a bit of a reprieve from some of the daily tasks that always fall on my lap but usually have no help with. Now that he’s left to go back home, the feeling of being overwhelmedContinue reading “The Lonely Road…”
The Mom/Work Dilemma
When we originally moved up here, I had a job lined up. The goal was to start within a month. However, due to circumstances beyond my control, that didn’t happen (we were waiting on documentation that the government had and it was like pulling teeth to get them back). I’ve since been dealing with theContinue reading “The Mom/Work Dilemma”
Mom Brain
It seems to starts the moment you become pregnant: the mom brain. While I had heard of it prior to having my son, mom brain was something that I thought would clear up eventually (sooner rather than later). However, five years in, I still have a bad case of it. There’s one specific situation thatContinue reading “Mom Brain”
Favourite Baby Products
Each family is different, as is each child. There were a few products that we swore by when our son was a baby. The one that topped our list was a shopping cart hammock from Binxy Baby. It was a last minute addition to our baby registry on Amazon, but it was one of theContinue reading “Favourite Baby Products”
