Writing my book, A House Interrupted, has been the most un-expected, life-changing journey of my adult life. When I wrote my book, I had only one purpose in mind. To let the world know about the damage sexual addiction has on women and families. To be able to hand my book to another women coming behind me on this journey …
GOING ALONE
Thanks to all the snow recently in Boston and Vermont, my husband has decided to take a quick trip to go skiing. The only person he could count on at a moment’s notice to go with him, was Jeff. I wrote a bit about Jeff in my previous post. My husband, or Jeff, on a whim, would note great conditions …
A New Dialog
As you can tell from my serious lack of blogging in 2014, writing has not been a high priority in my life. Family and travel have taken center stage. B and I travelled to Paris for the first time in June and met our son Max and his friend Rob on the coast of Barritz. We LOVED Barritz and want …
Another Life-Changing Loss
Finishing up a wonderful LA/La Jolla trip brought me back home in time to settle in for the long, hot summer of life in Myrtle Beach. Late July brought one of the greatest losses into my life: my mother Marjorie passed away suddenly. My four siblings and I were able to make it to her bedside in North Carolina …
Begin Again – A Personal Note
Finally, Feeling the need to reach out and write again. Still walking through an incredible life experience since I last blogged. Will start from the last time I would have/should have posted. Spent a wonderful, (as usual) time in LA/La Jolla Cove at the end of June. Was in LA to speak at an addiction conference at the USC – …
SOCIAL MEDIA: PORN @ OUR CHILDREN’S FINGERTIPS
Thinking of what to write for my next post was a bit of a struggle for me. There is so much going on in sexual addiction and the bombardment of sexual content in our culture, that I have felt a need to change the subject matter of this post twice. I think what is going on now in Social Media …
WEEKEND UPDATE – NEW SEXUAL ADDICTION RESOURCES
The recent IACSAS conference in Nashville is what I want to talk about. I want you, the wife/girlfriend to know what your options are. You can decide what works for you and your situation. Period. Thanks to the publication of my book, “A House Interrupted”, has allowed me to get a glimpse of some of the newest books and …
NASHVILLE ROCKS!
The only time I have ever been to Nashville was flying into this airport about 16 years ago, only to be picked up at baggage claim by the On-Site Van/taxi to be driven off to a 5-day intensive, theraputic workshop somewhere outside of this great city. Don’t get me wrong here. OnSite, a world famous weekly retreat facility, was, …
New Family Members
What a week! The bombings in Boston and the chaos and fear that followed until the capture of the other suspect. My hometown. Even as far west as Newton was on lock down status. Wellesley, where I grew up, is the next town after Newton. So incredible to read all of the tweets, facebook comments and photos of friends and …
Boston Marathon – A Personal Perspective
I was planning on writing this post to introduce you to my new family member’s, (rescue dog/kittens.) What happened in Boston, my hometown, Monday afternoon, changed all that. You can take the Girl out of Boston, but, you can’t take the Boston, out of the Girl. I was born and raised in Wellesley, MA. My mother was born in …
Coming Up For Air
Welcome back to my first blog post of 2013. Since my last post of 2012 dealt with the end of my official book tour, I have found myself asking some serious, new – life questions. “Ok, your book was published and is now out in the world. (5 year process). “How do you continue your goal of getting the word …
