From Housewife to Film Maker

After being a housewife/stay at home mom for 23 years and 8 children, I'm learning to be a film maker.

Okay, due to getting 3 times the hits over here then at my new addy I must post the following… January 23, 2010

I am baffled by the number of hits I’m not getting at my new site.  I’ve dropped like a rock.  This site is getting triple the hits.  This doesn’t make any sense.  It’s nuts.  So there’s this internal conversation going on between those two parts of me that co-exist in uneasy stability…

One side says, “You need to double post… here and back at our old home.
The other side says, “One of the reasons we came over here was to stop double posting on Blogger and WordPress.”
The nervous, jittery, twisting a tissue around her finger side says, “Then we need to go back to our old site.”

All the King’s Horses and All the King’s Men Couldn’t Help Me . . . January 17, 2010

As I said in the last post, “All the king’s horses and all the kings men” couldn’t fix the problem that had developed between me and my child/ren.  Only I could belly up and take RESPOND-siblity for what I had created.  Own the whole mess.

Tonight there was another step forward healing my relationship with my adult child that said they wanted nothing to do with me.  We spent an evening together, that they initiated, and it was wonderful.  So wonderful that we were supposed to watch a movie but we never got to it because we talked so long.  The talking was light and (more…)

So why did mention in my last post that it felt like the Ice Age movie?

Well, in the last post I told about a conversation with John.  During it I had mentioned that there was a “crack” in me and that was what triggered it…
See, when it came to my mother, I knew, that when I was young, I had frozen (more…)

A Duck, on a Frozen Pond, Demonstrating Einstein’s Definition of Insanity? . . . January 13, 2010

10 this morning: I was in my truck to go to my life coach/therapist appointment and I noticed these ducks “on top” of the lake–really it’s a very large pond but they insist on calling it a “lake”.  I say they were “on top” of it because the water is frozen.

I just got in, it’s 12 ish and I have to say it’s with a smile that I’ve come to share with you…

I’ve been so focused on where my life and healing has been going for the last month or so and there has been the need to fill my blogs with so many words just to cover that topic (more…)

 

From Pandora’s boxes to where? . . . January 11, 2010

So where do I go from “here”?  All I wrote about in my last post.  From my “demons” of Mother Hate and Unforgiveness?…

In the Steven King movie I talked about last, there was a female character who was dying a terrible death.  It was made obvious that it was due to her holding on to hate.  Her line: “Sometimes being a bitch is all a woman has to hold on to.”
