Too soon to say goodbye

January 7, 2020January 7, 2020 / CrazyKat1963 / 33 Comments

We found out early Friday morning that my dad is in critical condition, in the ICU up north near his home in Washington State. He's 77 years old. He’d been in some abdominal pain for a few days, which then became severe, and he asked my step mom to call an ambulance because he literally … Continue reading Too soon to say goodbye

Lost identity

March 16, 2016November 27, 2018 / CrazyKat1963 / 36 Comments

In the shower this morning I realized I am having an identity crisis. I have written so much here on my blog. I have spilled out who I am, what has happened to me both before and after I found out about my husband's secret life, how I feel about addiction, how I feel about … Continue reading Lost identity

Here we go again

January 27, 2016January 27, 2016 / CrazyKat1963 / 26 Comments

Anger is often called a secondary emotion because we tend to resort to anger in order to protect ourselves from or cover up other vulnerable feelings. A primary feeling is what is felt immediately before we feel anger. We almost always feel something else first before we get angry. We might first feel afraid, attacked, offended, disrespected, … Continue reading Here we go again

Accountability Report: let’s regroup

One of the "rules" of the program is that if you go off the program, you must start over. Well, we did stumble a … Continue reading Accountability Report: let’s regroup

Accountability Report: I cheated

March 27, 2015March 27, 2015 / CrazyKat1963 / 4 Comments

Oh, oops, I can eat pumpkin, I think. Wait, that's not it... I've completed my first week on the Whole30 eating plan. We have enjoyed such delicious home cooked meals as turkey lettuce wraps, cajun shrimp salad, thai halibut curry and on the menu for this weekend is cottage pie with cauliflower mash topping, plantain tostadas … Continue reading Accountability Report: I cheated

Health is fleeting

February 7, 2015February 7, 2015 / CrazyKat1963 / 7 Comments

In December I wrote a couple posts about my brother, Peter. He was suddenly diagnosed with leukemia at the age of 50. He received 14 days of straight chemotherapy and was in the hospital for nearly six weeks. Tests came back with a positive result, or so we thought. The last we saw him, Peter … Continue reading Health is fleeting

Some good news

December 27, 2014December 27, 2014 / CrazyKat1963 / 1 Comment

Today I have had some kind of a head cold most of the week, so we had not been back to see my brother in the hospital. We leave today for a quick trip to Las Vegas, and I definitely wanted to get in to see Peter before we left. We had been trying to reach … Continue reading Some good news
