What I wish that people knew what's going on behind my closed doors...

Warning. If you don't wish to hear anger, disappointment, a pity party, and down-right anger, stop reading now.

I am so sick of purging and packing I could scream. Everything has just come to a grinding stop.  I'm overwhelmed. Every time I go to the mailbox there is another bill I can't pay.

My Fathers Loss

Many years ago, I lost my father after his battle with colon cancer that later spread to his bones. The grief stayed with me longer than I expected.
