Y’all know by now that I am a total Nerd Girl…and one of the biggest fans of Doctor Who there is. And as we’re heading to NYC next week, I thought maybe I’d provide you a list of the top ten things that a Whovian (that’s a big ass DoctorContinue Reading
It disturbs me every time it happens…but the flashbacks are getting to be less prevalent. With my husband in the passenger seat, and my nine month old in the back, we passed a car accident a few days ago. The accident was over. There were several people on the sideContinue Reading
I’ve lost focus. My therapist used to tell me an story intended to assist me in addressing my anxiety issues after my accident. I related to it – not because of the accident, but because of my ex. Imagine you’re driving a bus. You have a particular route andContinue Reading
