one wife’s journey through her husband’s sexual addiction to wholeness and healing
I have been insanely busy lately - my apologies for not writing for the past 6+ weeks. We are preparing to move across country and needless to say, my time is more than well-spoken for right now. This is the last day before the moving truck arrives and as I look around the house, I [...]
Sting wrote the song “If You Love Someone (Set Them Free)” in 1985 in response to the popularity of the previous Police hit “Every Breath You Take,” which was not a love story as the public took it, but the story of a stalker watching and obsessing over his prey. He was chagrined at how [...]

Don’t want to be a richer man

David Bowie’s song “Changes” from the “changesONEbowie” album of 1984 seems to explain much of our lives right now. I’m pretty sure it’s not how Bowie intended [...]
So apparently, the Haggards have been in the media lately - they did a documentary with a pay-per-view cable company, were on “Oprah,” and have been written up in various magazines, newspapers, and the rest.

Of all the things on this journey that I didn’t expect, it has been the depth of sheer anger and rage I have at a man who has been dead nearly 20 years. I am a natural redhead and have borne jokes through the years about my supposed anger. The truth is that I’m really [...]
I’ve had a post in my “work in progress folder” that deals with passivity. There’s been something that has niggled at my brain for a while now in regards to passivity and men - and I think I finally put the pieces together. I’m not confident enough to say it’s something that will stand all [...]
My husband and I had our first Theophostic meeting last week and I’ve pondered how to describe it and write about it for a full week now. I’m really glad we went and we’ll be going back next week. God completely showed up and met us there - and let’s face it: He didn’t have [...]
My husband & I had a phone conference last night with a Theophostic Prayer minister in our area. The short of the story is that we’re going to meet with her in about 10 days or so. The long of the story continues…
I made the phone appointment a few days earlier and was [...]
I mentioned in my last post that my husband was starting to get to the bottom of his addictive issues and the known abuse in his past.
That happened in a huge way in the last week. It’s weird enough-sounding that although it’s a major breakthrough, I’ve not quite known how to write about it.
