Miles Behind Me: You See Everything
http://milesbehindme.blogspot.com/2014/11/you-see-everything.html
Monday, November 24, 2014. Click Play first :). When I first heard the Alanis Morissette song Everything it hit close to home. When I watched the music video it hit closer to home. I actually did what Morissette did in the video. I took a pair of scissors and cut my hair. I then went to the salon and got a pixie cut. I took a photo of the hair in the trash. I wasn't shy of what I did. I admitted it. I changed my looks for ME. I then decided to take this one step further. So while it may seem odd I get th...

Miles Behind Me: October 2014
http://milesbehindme.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Wednesday, October 22, 2014. Katie Hurley recently wrote this article on Huffington Post http:/ m.huffpost.com/us/entry/5672519? Entitled There is Nothing Selfish About Suicide. I first applaud you Katie for writing that article. The amount of strength you must of had to come forward and share your story. It's a strength I don't have. Have I shared my PTSD story? With a handful of people I trust. But I've not shared it with you. Something I agree with Katie is. Unless you've been there, don't judge!

Miles Behind Me: August 2014
http://milesbehindme.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
Friday, August 15, 2014. Vacation, its where I want to be. It's been a while since my feet has been in sand. And that is what I did today. I walked along the Atlantic Ocean. Taking in the rays of the sun, the people around me. I had forgotten how hot the sun gets. And scurried on my flip flops after the fun in the sun. I did not go swimming in the ocean. For selfish reasons. I've gotten my hair the way I want it and didn't want the salt water ruining it. Rested up the day I landed due to the jet lag.

Miles Behind Me: Friendly Fire
http://milesbehindme.blogspot.com/2014/12/friendly-fire.html
Monday, December 1, 2014. Should you be judged for having a friend? Say you're friends with someone. But one of your other friends doesn't get along. Should you be judged because of that friendship? I am calling this Friendly Fire. Because honestly that is what it is. Say I haven't confronted Beth and Sam. But they realize that I know Abigail and talk to her. Would you be so hostel when around each other? Or would you be friendly. Sometimes I don't know what to do. I honestly don't want to look at Be...

Miles Behind Me: Easter?
http://milesbehindme.blogspot.com/2014/11/easter.html
Saturday, November 22, 2014. I was knee deep into writing a book. The doorbell rang so I ran down the stairs to answer the door. And then I saw the neighbors carrying Easter baskets. And for that brief moment I had to ask myself. What time of year is it? It wasn't just the Easter basket. There was the grass, the eggs. EASTER STUFF! And my brain checked out. I barely even invited the person inside. My mind was EASTER. But that Easter stuff made me question everything. Made me question reality.

Miles Behind Me: Did you vote? I didn't
http://milesbehindme.blogspot.com/2014/11/did-you-vote-i-didn.html
Tuesday, November 4, 2014. I can honestly tell you the last time I voted it was for Gore. What can I say. I'm a Republican. Err I was. I was a straight ticket Republican. Watching the elections that year something deep settled inside of me. My vote doesn't count. When it comes down to a Presidential election my vote doesn't count. Your vote doesn't count. I don't believe in the electoral college voting system. So I don't vote. I haven't registered to vote since Gore lost. I have a dream one day my vote w...

Miles Behind Me: Fog, Monsters, and Bears... oh my
http://milesbehindme.blogspot.com/2015/01/fog-monsters-and-bears-oh-my.html
Wednesday, January 14, 2015. Fog, Monsters, and Bears. oh my. I didn't realize what it meant to fortify oneself until I awoke that morning. I've read enough books set in the early 1700/1800 England. Where one fortifies oneself with a cup of tea. But the concept never really hit me until I awoke with a deep ache in my ribs. It was a cold morning, the type of cold that reaches your bones. I woke up to this. Washington, the state that makes you wonder if you're in a horror movie. No, wait that's Maine.

Miles Behind Me: Sun, Dear Sun, Where Did You Go?
http://milesbehindme.blogspot.com/2014/11/sun-dear-sun-where-did-you-go.html
Monday, November 3, 2014. Sun, Dear Sun, Where Did You Go? Oh my dearest Sun. The bright object that raises in the sky that defines morning from night. I miss thee. It truly feels nice when the sun finally peaks from the clouds and there is a sunny day. But lately the weather has been gloomy. But what did I expect. I mean we live in the PNW (Pacific Northwest). I guess that is what I mean to say. The warmth of my skin. My first winter in the PNW is starting out grand lol. 04 November, 2014 17:01.

Miles Behind Me: September 2014
http://milesbehindme.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Monday, September 22, 2014. Dear Airlines, Be On Time. Dear Airline Companies,. When I arrived at the airport 2 hours before my flight left I expected the airline company of Frontier to be on time, as stated on their website. I check my luggage and make my way to the gate where my flight is to take off. I arrive to my gate and read the dreaded words of "flight delayed" *insert horror scream*. I am wondering what perhaps several hundred (maybe more I don't know) wonder a day. "Am I going to make m...I've ...
