Week One – Thucydides | experimentingwiththisthingwecalllife
https://experimentingwiththisthingwecalllife.wordpress.com/2014/08/21/week-one-thucydides
The many jumbled boxes where I collect my thoughts, rants and affirmations. Week One – Thucydides. In my political science major for university one of my papers gives 20% of the grade for contributing weekly to an online discussion board. Kind of like a forum for pols geeks. I love it. Each week you can gain up to 3 marks – 0 being ‘no contribution’ and 3 being ‘particularly insightful’, and you need to gain 24 marks for the full 20%. We began with Thucydides –. History of the Peloponnesian War. I guess ...

Powerless Step-parent – Take Two | experimentingwiththisthingwecalllife
https://experimentingwiththisthingwecalllife.wordpress.com/2014/03/20/powerless-step-parent-take-two
The many jumbled boxes where I collect my thoughts, rants and affirmations. Powerless Step-parent – Take Two. So many expletives running through my mind. So much anger, indignation and fury. SO POWERLESS. Maybe that’s the lesson I am learning, this trip on earth, to handle situations and create calm in amongst the turmoil of something that is so far outside of my control. My stepson got conjunctivitis last week, poor kid, no fun for anyone! 8220;apparently he was fine yesterday and last night and his mot...

Que sera sera… | experimentingwiththisthingwecalllife
https://experimentingwiththisthingwecalllife.wordpress.com/2014/05/06/que-sera-sera
The many jumbled boxes where I collect my thoughts, rants and affirmations. Que sera sera…. I recently found out that my hairdresser is friends with the mother (BM) of my fiances son. I found out through facebook so I doubt either of them know this, but it lead to a realisation about my place in step-parent land. My first reaction was, oh my gosh, I need to find a new hairdresser! So Working on acceptance, openness and unity. Anyone got any strategies? Leave a Reply Cancel reply. Enter your comment here.

My prolems don’t mean any thing, because I am not a starving child in Africa. | experimentingwiththisthingwecalllife
https://experimentingwiththisthingwecalllife.wordpress.com/2014/05/28/my-prolems-dont-mean-any-thing-because-i-am-not-a-starving-child-in-africa
The many jumbled boxes where I collect my thoughts, rants and affirmations. My prolems don’t mean any thing, because I am not a starving child in Africa. Okay so maybe that was a little melodramatic. Yes, a little self realisation that other people have issues in their lives too is definitely a bonus in helping us take stock of our problems and put things into perspective. (In my opinion). No one likes a self-absorbed brat. Leave a Reply Cancel reply. Enter your comment here. Address never made public).

To my own Stepmum | experimentingwiththisthingwecalllife

The many jumbled boxes where I collect my thoughts, rants and affirmations. To my own Stepmum. I was having a think about the random path my life is going down and it has really woken me up to what you dealt with when you signed up for our dysfunctional instant-family. I have never thanked you properly for everything you have ever done for me, and for my dad too. Thank you for being so funny! And for being honest with me, that’s important. I feel like I have always known where I stand with you. Thank you...

Dear Fiance | experimentingwiththisthingwecalllife
https://experimentingwiththisthingwecalllife.wordpress.com/2014/05/14/dear-fiance
The many jumbled boxes where I collect my thoughts, rants and affirmations. I’ve realized that it isn’t about forgiving you. For the rest of our lives I am going to forgive you over and over again for things you do, and you will have to forgive me over and over again too, so while forgiving you is important, it isn’t really the point. What I really needed to realize was, regardless of anything that happened, whether we are still good for each other. I never want to stop thriving to be my best, for you.

The many jumbled boxes where I collect my thoughts, rants and affirmations. I was lucky enough in High School to have really good English teachers, especially in my senior years, that made me want to do well in a subject that I already enjoyed and was good at and English quickly became one of my favourite subjects. So I want to share with you something I wrote, several years ago when I was experiencing a lot of anger over my parents lack of communication and thought in their separation. The little girl s...

https://experimentingwiththisthingwecalllife.wordpress.com/2014/03/20/explanatory-note
The many jumbled boxes where I collect my thoughts, rants and affirmations. I am not dealing with my anger and conflict well lately, and get worked up easily. I am tired all the time and have trouble concentrating (which is an issue when I am currently trying to attempt a double degree, one of which is Law). Men, you should stop reading here. The doctor recommended a different kind of pill, and said it may take a few weeks for my body to readjust and to give it time. Quite happy with this, I started ...

The many jumbled boxes where I collect my thoughts, rants and affirmations. A is for amazing, arty, amorous, adventurous, alcoholic, alone, antagonistic, arresting. A is for ageless. A is for Anna. Anna is for mum, godmother, friend, angel, nightmare, lady, aunt, teacher, role-model, confidant. Do you know we still think about you, still eat edamame for you, still drink wine for you, still laugh at you, still cry about you? I knew you my whole life – I wish I had known you more.
