What it takes to do what I do everyday.

Acting Skills, Teaching Skills, Writing Skills, Healing Skills, Reading Skills, Math Skills, Cooking Skills, Believing in the impossible skills. And most importantly Binge Drinking Skills.
Not everyone can do it.. and only the Greats
(Like me) can do it well.. Being a Mother, A wife, A lover, a fighter, a Narrator, A director, a teacher of fine human skills is hard work.. And this is how I do it. Or try anyway.

upage.. not downage

They uped my Effexor
and I am feeling soo much better
Its like a sigh of much needed relief.
I am able to function again
No more anxiety.
Debilitating Fear
Sounds of terror
Just normalcy.

Lightening Strikes..


and
I
Am
Dead

There is the most beautiful
thunderstorm happening out side
Its almost midnight
and I can't sleep
It been a Tumulteous weekend full of
Anxiety, Grief, Guilt,
The only thing that would ease the pain
would be
to be
taken into the clouds and electrified
With light..
The Clashing thunderous booms to follow.
And I would fall to the ground
Into a garden and wake up in heaven
with sunshine on my face.
Peace in my heart
and rest in my soul.
Knowing my babies owuld be safe
In the arms of their daddy
and his heart would be released of the
stresses I bring.

As I Lay me Down to Sleep

ugh..

I wish I didnt 

Hate

my life so much.. 


I just want to

Die.

   my life is being ruled by

everyone

but me

 

Feelings..

Today I feel..


Mournful

If you have never felt that way
let me give you an insight into
what it feels like..

I have been spending the last few weeks
horribly depressed..
Like a big grey cloud is hanging over me
and I'll I can feel on my face
is cold wet rain.
Desperate for sunshine..

Yester I felt

Happy..

Today,
I am mourning
the glimpse of happiness
Knowing its not going to come back for
a while..
I spend at least 90% of the year
Drowning in sadness..

and 10% of it happy.
Those days are few and far between.
Yesterday was one of those.
I was glad to be with my husband
Happy to be with my kids
and Exhilirated to know
I had made it to another happy day

If I can just harness the happiness
and use it all year.. maybe for 5 minutes
a day
I wouldnt be so miserable..

But here I am..
Grey Clouds in my forecast..
Until the next time..
I see sunshine.

realizations..

#1 Nothing is Ever as it seems

#2 I am never going to be happy.
Never.
Not because nothing makes me happy.
But because Emotionally I cannot
grasp the Emotion. 

#3 Death is becoming less of a joke to me

#4 We will never be who "they" want us to be
we will only be who we are

#5 Life isn't what you make of it.
Its what you Create it to be.

#6 My husband is amazingly amazing.
He will stand by me even when I am standing on 
the ledge about ready to jump off.

#7 I'm never going to be free of guilt
Guilt is the only true emotion I EVER feel.
Guilt because I was unable to change the past
Guilt for not standing up for her, when I knew No one else would
Guilt for allowing my emotions to override my brain
Guilt for Making him sick with grief because I can't be happy 
with who I am. 

#8 My children Might not always love me.
But NO matter What. I will love them
And they will always have a place to come home to when
life gets the best of them

#9 I might not be the best teacher,
But I love with abandon and my children with
realize my shortcomings come from love

#10 Anxiety takes over my brain. 
and I realized that Sometime I need it to.
It allows me to reboot and prioritize in order to make it stop. 
Anxiety is my Kryptonite. 
But unlike Superman. I can get back up

Dear Alka-Seltzer


You fail me..
I have the worst cold
and you have not come to my aid.
Your Blue liquid that finds its home
in your Blue Liquid Gels 
Hold no Solace for me.

Your Green Liquid
Gives me no relief 
that sleep brings.. 

Your are no longer my friend.
and I no longer share my 
hard earned money
with your share holders..

In the wise words of Alfalfa..
"You are the scum between my toes"

Love,
 Kat
