Two weeks. It’s been two weeks since we lost Dolly. It’s been almost a week since we lost Gloria. How is this possible? And the nerve of my therapist today to do her damn job. The loss of legends has me on high alert. I never imagined losing Dolly would be this heartbreaking for me.…

The world has been grieving. We lost an angel on earth, and it hurts. Personally, I realized how much of a mess if Reba ever dies (she’s not allowed, this is a non negotiable). While I am heartbroken, I’m so glad she got to go home to her Carl Dean. She was ready to go…

Hey Mama, I have been struggling for a few days. Well, okay. I’ve been struggling for about two weeks. Because, well, my mother did what she always did. She was doting in public and hugged me and told me she loved me, not that she wished me a happy birthday, and then completely ignored me…

So, for my birthday this year, I decided I wanted to go do something. Well, okay. I needed “supplies” for writing. The fact that it was my birthday was just a happy accident. Well, I decided it would be a brilliant idea to spend the weekend TENT CAMPING. Yeah, my back is screaming at me…

Hey, Mama. I know, it’s a little weird for me to say that. That’s just what you are to me. The mama I needed when my own couldn’t be that for me. Don’t worry, I’m not the crazy one who will stalk you and try and guess when you and Rex finally tie the knot.…

Alright y’all. Sorry for the late post this week. I was busy putting finishing touches on part of my manuscript to send to my editor/proofreader. Yeah. I actually hired one. Insane, I know. It feels like I’ve handed over a piece of my soul. It feels jarring. I’m nervous as can be because what do…

Hey friends. Still can’t write that Reba react. I think that the song has broken my brain in the best possible way. Or worst possible way, I guess it just depends on how you want to look at it. I’m actually stepping back into an old skin this week. I’m stepping back into the pulpit…

Okay, here’s the deal y’all. I’m in the middle of a couple of different things. On top of all of that, I’m currently waiting (rather impatiently) for a formal ADHD diagnosis (expected June 11) and it has been suggested that I stop using my coping mechanisms to just do all the things and to let…

Most days I don’t complain about my ability to hear the different pieces of a song. Most days I’m just thankful to have something that I connect so deeply to. This Memorial Day weekend I spent locked up in my house. I spent the weekend writing and editing pieces of “What Surrendered.” I’m starting to…

My “Mama” Reba dropped an EP tonight. I stayed up late to listen. The new song of them? “One Night In Tulsa” I won’t lie, I cried the first 10 listens to it. I just cried. The first time listening, I just heard the melody. I didn’t even hear the words. I cried for that…
