The girl in my head....

I started writing this blog roughly 6 years ago. I was looking to fill up some time as I just quit my job to support my husband who was promoted to Interim Chief of Police. Our lives were turned upside down when he took the position. Political controversy, lack of support from city government, lack of support from officers led my husband to clinical depression and almost caused him to lose his life, not to mention his career. I, in turn, sat by helpless. I was powerless to help him. At first I enabled the drinking. Then I got saddened by the drinking, until finally I got fed up with it and called 911 for his own safety. We've had a long recovery road since that day - February 6, 2013. I never finished this issue of my blog. Things must have fallen apart around this time. 6 years later, I've hit a bump in my life. A friend reached out to support me and suggested I return to writing. So, I returned to see where I left off. Upon reading my words, my heart filled with sorrow for ...

Submission, the Inner Goddess and other domestic ponderings

Ok, how did that song by Salt-n-Pepa go...? “Let’s talk about Sex...” yeah, so now you know what this blog will be about and you can safely opt out now. So - I was asked to join a reading group that’s reading “Fifty Shades of Grey”.  It’s been a long time since I’ve read any erotica, and I have to admit I wanted to know what all the fuss was about.  I’ll admit I’m barely half way through the first book, but I have to agree with my friend and fellow blogger Lisa, yes, the writing leaves a bit to be desired.  But the sex scenes...?  Oh my, yes.  One of our fellow group members wondered why this was receiving so much attention.  In my opinion, and no offense please, but there are a lot of repressed women out there, and this is opening up some doors - BIG time. I think most of all this book is wonderfully empowering.  And not because of the subject matter.  There is a lot more to it than just the BDSM, this is about a woman discovering not just he...

Vilified...

Fuck You... That's what I want to say to everyone... Fuck. You. I am absolutely furious of the comments swirling about after the last incident experienced by the police department my husband works for.  I'm so mad, I can't sleep at night, my hands and my entire body will visibly shake I am so angry - and I just can't seem to get past it. About two weeks ago, officers responded to a report of an aggressive "pit-bull" in the neighborhood.  This is a bone of contention for a lot of people because they insist the dog was not vicious OR aggressive because the caller interviewed on television insists he never said that. No one apparently listened to the 911 tapes aired after his interview. The called/respondent said "aggressive". Twice. He called the police. Twice. BOTH TIMES, he described the dog as "aggressive" Unfortunately, VERY unfortunately, officers had to put the dog down. My God, you would think he stole some kid's candy ...
