Lately I have been feeling drained. Do you ever have those times when your phone rings or a text comes through and you look at is and your mind automatically says, “I can’t. I just can’t today.” I don’t know if it’s too much screen time or burnout or what, but lately my mind keeps … Continue reading Gingerfunk’s Blog || I Can’t

Abort Mission
Sometimes all we need is one person who makes us feel like we are not alone in our struggles. That is what connects us and helps us make this world a better place.
Grief – The Scenic Route

I keep hoping it's all a joke. I'm praying it's just a hoax. Yet, I will … Continue reading If Trump is Elected I Will Know the End Times Are Here
Knowing Your Worth
What is speaking the truth? Speaking my truth? Speaking your truth? It’s all different. What is true to me may not be true to you. But what matters is that we are true to ourselves. To our true, authentic selves. I was out the other night, for drinks and really wanted to go dancing. Once … Continue reading Knowing Your Worth
My Son, My World (anxieties of a mother)
Yes, everyone says enjoy it because time flies by so fast. Well guess what? Those people are so right! It’s like one day you are complaining about sports practices and band concerts and all of a sudden it’s like his whole childhood has flashed before my eyes. Like you’re watching a movie.
