Just two people who fell in love… ONLINE!
Yep, I know it sounds silly doesn’t it. Online dating. But I can honestly tell you that I believe in fate. I believe in happily ever after (which is basically) knowing when to agree to disagree and never go to bed mad. The dog house is meant for the “dogs” and there is nothing you can’t make it through if you realize that friendship, trust, understanding, mutual respect, tenderness and kindness all play a role that you are not on this journey down that broken road alone.
MEET COREY (AKA) FORGETFUL DAD. That’s what we call him because he is a TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury Survivor) after sustaining a motorcycle accident that basically wiped his memory clean at the age of 18 years old.
Corey is the love of my life, as are our boys (JJ, Trace (AKA) Pickle Boy we sometimes call him. You’ll learn why, and Colty (my step son whom I adore to pieces.
Here at Rants n’ Rascals we share the ups and downs of dealing with disabilities.
Forgetful Dad with his brain injury, who goes to bed every night and wakes up forgetting everything (mostly) that happened the day before. Watch 50 First Dates and you’ll get it.
Me with Bipoloar Depression, BPD, Anxiety Disorder, IBS and a whole slew of other disorders I think I’m now making up as I go along that makes me feel like a Walmart Rollback sticker.
JJ our oldest who is twelve turning OMG 13 AND entering that awful world of teenage passage, and who is slightly ADHD, though secretly I think he’s faking it to get out of chores and listening to us. He’s kinda smart that way.
And finally Trace our youngest who is 5, deceptively smart, a bit moody minded, diagnosed with Mild Cerebral Palsy, Asperger’s and some kind of Video Game disease that refuses to allow him time to breath let alone eat when he’s supposed to. (We are looking into) specialists as we speak.
Life for us is very ordinary with extra-ordinary slips and falls, fights, joys, triumphs, and sometimes tears day to day. And we share it all here.
From what’s on TV, to what we liked at the movies, bad mommy moments, to days I can’t handle being marriage, to what’s happening with the Vancouver Canucks. This is our home – away from – home, where we get to come and invite you in, share with you, hopefully you get you to share back, and make friends along way.
We’re glad you are here. Thanks for stopping by
