It's Tuesday and it is time to spread some cheer in the blogosphere. Leigh came up with this awesome carnival and I think I have participated all but a couple of weeks.

Memories of my daddy, in a week when I hope to find some peace
Tomorrow morning I will be up and on the road long before the sun crawls out of bed. My sister and I will be headed towards Campbellsville, once again facing our stepmother in court over our father's estate. Hopefully this will be the last time we have to go before we get what is rightfully ours.

The Happiness project with Leigh
I love this picture of my oldest. He is such a good looking boy, and back then he was such a loving child. I miss that boy. I wish to heaven I knew where he was gone. Instead I sit here feeling like a failure as a mom. My son is bipolar along with a few other disorders and suddenly at 18 I have watched this young man turn into someone I don't know. I see glimpses of him from time to time. When he shows back up I am excited, hoping that he is going to make the decision to do what he needs to in … [Read more...]
