Upon reading Stevie’s background, I at least understood his background. Perhaps that could give me a clue as to why he triggered me. I had no idea that I’d ever suffered from neglect. Neglect to me was a kid living in squalor conditions, something sever like that. That never happened to me. I remembered I’d… Continue reading More on My Cat and Neglect

More on How My Cat Triggered Me.
My new cat Stevie came from a horrible neglectful situation. And it was that neglect that triggered me. I wasn’t sure what about his situation triggered me, so I went online to investigate (the internet can be good for some things)! Anyway, I decided to research the difference between abuse and neglect. At that point… Continue reading More on How My Cat Triggered Me.
How my new cat triggered me.
About a month ago I went over to the local humane society to see about adopting a cat. My beloved cat had died during the pandemic, and I was getting “cat fever” to get another one. My initial intention was to get 2 kittens so they could be together. That is not what ended up… Continue reading How my new cat triggered me.
Side Note
I was going to discontinue this blog, hence the inactivity. I originally started this blog after setting up the original one only to discover I had fat-fingered the website! It was intended to be “thedandelionchronicles” only it turned out to be “thedandelionchromicles.” I must admit I laughed when I realized my mistake (Good help is… Continue reading Side Note

What ended up happening was a passenger vehicle cut him off and he avoided the accident but ended up dying in the ensuing accident. It was a horrible accident. His… Continue reading Wanting to Feel Safe
The Body and MY Dissociation: how it worked for me and what I’ve learned.
I was working in a place where I was lifting 65 lbs cases of water bottles. The weight itself wasn’t an issue, but the awkward size of the case was. I ended up with a back injury which showed up on the x-ray machine during the worker’s comp case. At any rate, I went to… Continue reading The Body and MY Dissociation: how it worked for me and what I’ve learned.
It took more than 20 years to discover why I was losing time and the results shocked me.
I continued to lose time during my time in college and beyond. Most of time I had no idea it had happened until I would look back and discover these blank spots of varying times and not knowing what happened during these “blank spots.” I had this inclination something wasn’t right but had no idea… Continue reading It took more than 20 years to discover why I was losing time and the results shocked me.
Dandelions Chronicles
I love dandelions. They are very special to me. I consider them a flower although most people consider them weeds. As a weed, people try to poison them, pull them out by their little heads and pull them by their roots. People try to do all sorts of things to kill the lowly dandelion, yet… Continue reading Dandelions Chronicles
