Impatience

Man, I don’t know what’s going on lately, but I have reverted back to being over-the-top impatient. I’m not impatient on everything, just stuff that I think should have happened by now. Here’s why I think impatience happens; I think we become impatient because we’ve glimpsed something we desire very much but it has yetContinue reading “Impatience”

Alien

I recently had a client who was not from this world. Literally. She was not from planet Earth. I’m not talking about her physical body. I’m talking about her soul. It’s not the first time I’ve encountered a ‘Superior Being’ (my terminology) in my line of Work, but they are a rarity and beautiful toContinue reading “Alien”

Career

There were two professions I wanted to be when I grew up. The first was a nurse.  Well, the nurse idea bit the bullet long before it was a full-fledged glimmer in my eye. I thought I wanted to be a Candy Striper at a local hospital. You know, deliver some flowers, get an extraContinue reading “Career”

Agnostic

Melissa’s Note: I didn’t start out writing the blog that this became.  In truth, I was tired of repeatedly hearing the word “agnostic” and decided it must be the Word of the Month that my Guys wanted me to pass on to you.  I even looked up the meaning in the dictionary (see below), butContinue reading “Agnostic”

Perkins

We were returning from a family vacation and were hungry so we decided to stop at Perkins. It was an easy on, easy off for the two road warriors plus une petite bebe. We sat at a table like every other table. Our server was sweet and efficient.  We entertained our daughter with crayons and cheerios.  She, thenContinue reading “Perkins”

Control

I once told a new client I was a recovering Control-a-holic. Her face whitened, her eyes widened and her posture changed. She said, “You mean, you’re going to use handcuffs or tie me down during session?!”  Blink. Blink.  Whaaa!??? NO!  Oh my!  What I was trying to communicate is that I would thoroughly explain whatContinue reading “Control”

Insomnia

Insomnia is my kryptonite. It wrecks me.  In one short night, I go from rested to spastic.  I get out of bed crabby because, you guessed it, I couldn’t sleep. Gone is the positive, optimistic, up-beat, glass-half-full person.  Instead, I morph into something barely human. I literally growl like a small dog.  My Temper Flare-UpContinue reading “Insomnia”

Progesterone

Several years ago I was talking with my bestie about how lucky I was to have short periods. She, who was getting her Masters in Nutrition at the time, showed me a different side to that thinking. She said if my periods were short (meaning under 5 to 7 days), then my body may notContinue reading “Progesterone”

Miracle

You crazy cats! I’ve gotten two emails today stating you are waiting in suspense for the next installment of yesterday’s blog! Whatta hooot! I love it! Thank you. Wait no more…….. (NOTE: This blog is a continuation of yesterday’s “Vasectomy” blog.) We used birth control until well after we were married. I kept saying, “Honey. I reallyContinue reading “Miracle”

Vasectomy

Even as teenager, I knew how many pregnancies/children I would have and I knew what order they would be born in.  I never really wanted kids during my starter marriage. In fact, I didn’t even think about having children until I was around age 38. I wasn’t sure how the whole having children thing wouldContinue reading “Vasectomy”
