Hey there, back at day 6 again. Relapsing seems to be a large part of my recovery this year, and as much as I wish that weren’t the case, I’d be lying if I said I hadn’t learned a lot. Now that we’re getting closer to the end of the year, I’ve been reflecting a…

Hey everyone! (assuming anyone will actually read this again). I kinda lost track of this for about a year, and so much has happened in the past year… Currently I’m attending outpatient rehab in Toronto, while living on my dad’s couch. Admittedly, this sucks at times. I miss having my own apartment, I miss having…

I’ll start off by saying I am very grateful. My oldest daughter and I were in a car accident Tuesday night – we hit a moose on the highway and I wrote my vehicle off. Airbags deployed in my face, it was pretty scary honestly. Thankfully she is completely unharmed. I have a concussion, but…

Welcome to my first ever blog post! I have a lot of anxiety as I’m typing this, so be patient everyone. Currently it’s Halloween and I’m having a lot of mixed emotions – I’m sad because it isn’t my year with my kids, I’m anxious because I’m waiting for a photo of my 2 year…
