It’s bad today.
How am I suppose to cope? I can’t think…
Hard to write words, move, My GOD that teenager is LOUD!
No pain killers…
Why would I get any of those…?
They know it hurts…
Going to have to bite the bullet and goto pain clinic.
How am I suppose to do anything…?……….
“Hey dad, my bike broke again… Can you help me fix it?”
I look up from writing these words…
“Sure son, bring it in here (My dining room converted into my bedroom now…). “We’ll fix it for good this time!” (Grabs JB Weld).
He smiles at me…
I’ll figure out how to “deal” after I fix the bike…

Isn’t that the truth? The mental gymnastics that have to happen each day…
It is very exhausting lately…
I’m so sorry. Praying peace comes to you very soon.
Thank you… I’m okay… just some days are hard.
So sorry to hear that it hurts so much today. You are so brave. Hugs.
Thank you! Hard to deal with it sometimes. Writing always helps. I truly appreciate your comments, hun.
I don’t know how you find the energy to do it. Personally, I can’t write when I’m hurting. I greatly admire you Tim. Your kindness, generosity toward your family and friends, and your positive mind leave no room for sadness to creep in. Stay strong.
See, lol… I appreciate your faith in me. But the sadness creeps in and I haven’t written much lately. But i think you are an amazing friend for saying such and seeing so much.
That’s what I see in your writing Tim. Pure kindness and strength.
You are very sweet!
Precisely what happens with me, when I’m down, my son smiles at me and I smile along.
Btw, just wanted to let you know my blog is now private. You’ll need to ask for permission so I can grant you access, that is if you still want to read me. It’s easy, you’ll see.
Hope to see you there.
Of course! I’ll ask for permission in a bit when I’m not on my phone.
Cool. See you there.
I hope you’re ok.
I’m okay… Thank you for asking. Sometimes, it all ramps up so much. It is very frustrating.
Bad phases and sufferings are part of life but remember that this phase will pass too.😁👍
Sorry to hear about the pain. 😦
I’m a wife, mom, grandmom and a cancer survivor (almost 4 years out from the surgery, etc.).
We find out no matter what we as parents are going through, life goes on and we are needed to be parents. 🙂 Sometimes it’s those normal day-to-day things that keep us here and moving forward. 🙂
You made your son smile. What a beautiful day!

Yeah, they all make me smile, most of the time, lol… Teenagers make me flinch more days than most, lol.
HA! I understand! Mine are all raised and on their own, but I do remember their teenage years. 🙂
