Like never, ever, effin never! — You’re here because you’re either nearing 50, you are 50 or you’re over 50 and you have no clue what you should be wearing anymore. Like, is there a catalogue for age appropriate clothes for 50 year olds? Who knows. Anyway, today I’m gonna tell you 10 things you should…

And I’m kinda thankful I had the shittiest childhood imaginable — I was the biggest loser in school. Starting in elementary school and all the way to the end of high school. To say my childhood was full of trauma is an understatement. From being physically abused at home to being bullied constantly at school, there was no hope for me…

Planes trains and automobiles-my experience from Guatemala to Canada so far — It’s been awhile since I’ve traveled to Canada from Guatemala. It’s generally an ok trip but it could be a long one, depending on a million things like road conditions in Guatemala to get to the airport, flights canceled at the airport, delays. You get the idea. After reading so…

And I’m not sure where to start looking for them — Actually I think it’s more like close to 500. I’m not really sure. What I am sure of is that last week I had 4.2K followers and was pretty happy about that. It makes you feel good as a writer to know that people enjoy your work. For me, the…

And then I got called a ‘piece of shit’ and the ‘c’ word. — I noticed I got blocked again today. I don’t know this person, never read anything they have written (if they even did), yet they left a comment on an article I wrote over 3 years ago and then blocked me so I can’t even see the comment. I hate when…

Wtf do they mean anyway?? — I’ll admit. I’m lost. Lost in a world of acronyms. I can remember so many years ago when acronyms like ‘brb’, ‘fml’ ‘u2’ and ‘ttyl’ were just making their grand entrance into the online world. I’ll also admit. I had to Google some of them. I would actually spend some…

And I’m changing my life because of it — I’m no stranger to negative comments. In the last 7 years of doing this online ‘influencer’ thing, I’ve had to grow fairly thick skin and for the most part, I’ve done a good job. I think. Every now and then a comment comes across the screen and you will find…

And I’m ok with it — I read a really good story last week from Susan Kelley and it got me thinking about life. About my life, what I’ve had, things I’ve done and things I’ll never have before I die. I’ve linked her story at the end of this article so please do her a…

Everyone should hit rock bottom at least once in their life — I remember when it happened. Almost like it was yesterday. I wrote my ‘Dear John’ letter, packed up what few belongings I had and walked away from my last abusive relationship. I had nothing to my name but a shred of hope and a morsel of faith. The life I…
