A Year of Trials and Tribulation

What a rough year. 

It seems that this was my year of personal reflection, growth, and change. For years I cared for my husband while he was sick and stuffed my feelings and pain deep inside. When those feelings come to the surface and then the nasty rotten devil tries to use every person and thing to destroy me – well, it makes for a rough year. And, I’d like to share with you that I was strong, courageous, and handled these attacks with grace and mercy – but I can’t.  I wasn’t a shining example of an overcoming woman. I failed. I stumbles. I groped my way through this valley of the shadow of death.

Am I doing better? Yes, I am overcoming. 

Did it take a long time?  Yes, too long.

Is it over?  Heck no. 

Thought I was over the hump, but I figured out this past week that I’m still in the thick of it.

So often we get to hear from women on their success but I am here 
to be brave and share my failures.

Will I overcome?  Will I survive?  Absolutely.  

I’m inviting you to join me in this roller coaster of a journey.

Yes that’s me in Vegas, wishing I had a limo instead of walking forever to my van.
No I wasn’t gambling or getting “wild”. Just there for some work 🙂
