I broke down the crowdfund into small goals to help me move and find some sort of independence. So week by week, I will update the GoFundMe and this blog. During this shift from married lady to Gay Divorcee, I’ll be updating quite a bit as needs become apparent. People seem to prefer smaller goals, […]
The divorce has been settled. It will be finalized in December. My feeling are complicated. My housing plan is uncertain, only some possibilities. I have to move out of this home by December 31, 2026 or pay $1600 (I think, maybe $1200) a month in penalties. I didn’t know that was a thing. Do not […]
Today is my 56th birthday. This ask is if you can chip in $5 or $6 today here or via other tools, that would be helpful and keep me in fighting form for what’s next. Big week, right? Signing the divorce papers was a milestone, but it didn’t change my overall circumstances – I’ll still […]
As I flipped through selfies from the past three years for a project, something sad caught my attention – I have stopped smiling. No big excited grins. No quite moment smiles.

I may not see some of my cats ever again, a […]

I’ve been exploring some of the precode movies related to divorce to distract my mind. Perhaps that seems odd. Some of my friends have asked if they can reach out to shore up some help for me, mainly lodging. Having been unexpectedly homeless for 196 days in 2023, I know that’s a big lift. Nobody […]
Big transitions can be frightening and overwhelming. I’m not trying to reinvent myself, just find my true self. Like many folx, I had plans to do interesting things, like tattoos. I waited and waited – 30, 40, 45, 50 – okay 50 was during the pandemic – so at age 55 I got my first […]
