Showing posts with label marriage

I am willing to attest to my own happiness these days. Its been 6 months since I went through with my separtion from my spouse. If someone had told me that 2022 would be the last chapter of my twenties that brings me closer to many of my goals, I would have asked to look into the crystal ball, my baby! 



It’s been one week since I packed up multiple garbage bags filled with belongings for my two children and me. My heart was enraged in pain from my husband’s words. Tears streamed down my face. As I readjusted the purple microfiber towel that was on my head. My husband of almost eight years professed with his chest and back turned that he was seeing another woman. 


Today was a bad Father’s Day. It ignited with a screaming argument between my husband and I that resulted in him expressing how upset he’s been with me for the past week. Plus, he brought up how I don’t know what it is like to love a man as a father.

It is possible! Gaining inner peace during such a turbulent time is essential to our mental health. It might seem as if there are so many people that you may follow or watch on social media who have it all together, and you're the only one struggling. I've felt the same way but chose to recharge and re-evaluate my thoughts and daily practices. I value being able to be at peace in my life, both mentally and physically.

Blogmas Day 6

When I was twenty I said “I do” to my now-husband. I was wearing a cream-colored $25 dollar dress. My wedding dress was discovered at my then job Ross Dress for Less. Our courthouse wedding brought us joy.

I will rather be real than sugar coat the truth with lies and bullshit. My husband and I have been together for eight years. We have been disagreements. We have our ups and downs and share so many priceless moments together.

What’s going well in my life right now is my marriage. I hardly ever really touch on my marriage on my blog mainly because I’m not really open to sharing my marriage. I’ve been married ever since December 20th, 2013. 


Yes, my marriage did change after having a baby. My husband, Bruce and I were married for three years before we even became pregnant. We were together for six years when we started our family. We did not rush into starting a family and neither one of us had our lives truly together. 




Last night, I had a huge argument with my husband. We have been married for now over three years and together going on eight. We always argued. I mean, I guess that’s what people do. However, ever since I have gotten pregnant the arguing has become more and more intense. When I say intense, I mean in ways that would raise your blood pressure rapidly too. If you have read my pervious blog then you would be caught up with what’s been going on in my life. You can read that blog post by simply clicking here.

Ode to the joys, pain, and the excitement it is to become a mother. People seem to ask me all the time, "Linda, when you and your husband are going to have a baby?" All I can honestly say is, "Well, whenever God knows we are ready." At this point in my life, God knows that I am not ready to become a mother nor is my husband ready to be a father.
