Finding My Voice

I have an eating disorder.  This is an issue that has been lying dormant for a very long time and only came to light in a way that it is clearly definable in the recent months.  Not only is it a disorder, but it’s an addiction. I am a binge eater.  I have always used … Continue reading »

All I Want for Christmas….

Last winter, I wrote that I want new problems.  I am HAPPY to report that I’ve gotten more than half of them. I work one official job, a side job and a growing number of freelance projects that I love.  I have a wonderful professional reputation and others gladly talk me up and spread the … Continue reading »

You Never Know….

I think I spread a nice warm fuzzy last night…. and I touched my own heart in the process. You see, several years ago when I was freshly separated (and not yet divorced), I enrolled in school.  It wasn’t the easiest thing in the world to do, what with school starting just two days after … Continue reading »

Beautiful

Thank you, Mari for nominating me for this beautiful award.  Though my blog activity is sporadic these days for a variety of reasons,  mostly because wordpress is acting quite wonky on my end (I generally cannot comment on other blogs… only ONE in several comments I try to make actually goes through).  Though I do … Continue reading »

Happy Feet

I am the Sunday School teacher at my Spiritual Community.  It is a job I enjoy for so many different reasons; one of them being that I learn a lot about my own self as a child and even who I am today as I teach the kids.  I am a firm believer that you … Continue reading »

A Temporary Farewell….

I have decided to step away from the blogosphere for a little while.  So this will be my final post for an undetermined amount of time. I’ve been feeling this need to withdraw for the past month and just tonight after finishing a long phone conversation with a fellow blogger, I have clarity as to why I … Continue reading »

Warm Fuzzies Abound!

When I share a meal with friends, it is not unusual for me to ask everyone at the table what they are grateful for.  I love doing this because it gets others outside of themselves and whatever “chaos” may be going on in their day to shift focus onto everything that is right, perfect and just plain … Continue reading »

Learning to Exhale

Hi, my name is Currie and I make mistakes.  Welcome to my support group. Yesterday, I had a horrible day that almost immediately began with a hiccup which quickly snowballed  into more issues and before I knew it, I was a walking cess pool of neuroses.  It was not pleasant. It’s days like yesterday that make me want to extract … Continue reading »

My Own Personal Award Show!

*Please do NOT get dressed up for my award show.  In fact, I encourage you to wear your expandable pants and find something yummy to eat if you are in attendance.* When I dumped facebook about six weeks ago, I made a decision to give my blog a facelift and began devoting time to developing … Continue reading »

The Road Home

Have you ever lost the person you loved most in the world?  Have you ever dealt with the numb pain of saying good-bye forever, as you try to move forward without a chunk of your heart?   I have.   Though I cannot say for sure what day my Godfather died, I believe today marks the anniversary … Continue reading »
