Well ladies and gentlemen I have started a new venture with my newly minted husband and we are super excited to share this news and get going in this business.

As of March 6, 2019

JH Logistics Solutions is love and we are helping truck drivers find the right jobs to match their needs.  This is super important to us because we are from trucking families and it can be hard to get that work-life balance that everyone needs.

We can help anyone who wants to get a CDL all the way to the most experienced driver who wants to be home daily. At our fingertips we have comapnies that want to hire drivers or train new drivers.

Ladies and gentlemen this is HUGE!! Without truckers the things we enjoy purchasing in stores and online do not get tot our homes or on the shelves!!

We keep America trucking. If you guys know anyone looking for a new career as a driver or someone who may need to find a company that is a better fit for their home-work balance, send them our way.

We are passionate about this business and this new adventure because we know what it is like on the other side to need that family time and want the good paychecks.  I promise we will do the very best to get anyone where they need to be to achieve their goals.  If we do our job then we can both reach our goals!!

I hope everyone who reads this can think of at least one person and let them know we are here to help.  DO not be afraid to reach out.

Today I am enough. Today I am strong. Today I can smile and know I am loved.

Many happenings have gone down since posting last.

No more horse ownership.

No more tolerating other people’s BS – I have plenty of my own.

I am not as good as I am going to get, but I am better than I used to be.

I have battled various situations, some self inflicted, others not so much, but I have survived all of it.

I am helping others heal as they are helping me to heal.

My brokenness was hidden from so many and now I am putting my pieces back together.

I am focusing on what I CAN do and working towards whatever it is I want.

I am giving my kids more of my undivided attention, instead of trying to be all and do all.

I still fall short.

I still have crummy days where my bed is more appealing than anything outside these walls, BUT I get up. I do what I need to do. I do what I choose and I am loving most of it.

I am growing and changing and enjoying being me. I am comfortable in my own skin. I am confident in who I am and who I am becoming.

I want to thank Thumper and the kids for all of their love and support. Thank you to Thumper’s family for being so loving and accepting, especially his baby sister and oldest brother. You will likely never know how much you have helped.

Love and light people.

To all of the exes for my sweet amazing man…

Thank you. Thank you for the time you spent with my precious Thumper. He took something away from each one of you. He learned what he did want. He learned what he could and could not tolerate from women, children and people in general. He grew with each of you. He has never been perfect but I am sure looking back there were moments that were perfect. He was able to experience young love, fatherhood, romantic love, and so much more with you ladies. The man I live with today would not be who he is without your influence. Thank you for those experiences, good or bad, they have helped shape the man he has become.

I love this man. I cannot find words to express the things I feel with him. Happiness is one. Contentment. There is an ease in which we do things together. He is really my best friend, the person I want to tell everything. I am safe with him. I am calm, mostly colllected and he helps me to stay that way. Together we are grounded- we are each other’s rock.

Thank you exes because of you and the things that caused your one time heartbreak – my heart has healed and I have my incredible Thumper to thank for that. He and I together are a team and today I am grateful!! Much love and light to all!!

I have been on a journey all along. My primary reason for blogging at all was to share my life experiences so that others may know they are not alone in the good and bad they experience. I have glossed over some major details of my struggles because I did not feel it necessary at the time. 

Mothersense is me, it is my writing to the world to inform and perhaps entertain those who dare to read it at all. It is also an outlet for frustration and contemplation on situations. It is a therapeutic tool for me. 

At the end of September 2016, my wonderful exuberant daughter who continues to struggle with her bipolar and other disorders tried to kill herself in a very public way. The attempt was witnessed by many and praise the Lord she was not injured, others were able to intervene. She spent some time in a mental health facility after that. It was hard. She cried. I cried. Thumper stood by us all through this and was remarkably calm and supportive. (Have I mentioned how incredibly blessed I am to have this man? ) She came home to same rules, new meds, same school, and things are better. We all know that there will be other times because mental illness is life-long, but we also are reminded to take nothing for granted. 

Still blessed folks! Love and light!! 

Life is never always sunshine and roses. I am reminded of this as it is 38 flipping degrees outside and I am reporting to a job that is new and well a little scary because I haven’t had to work like this in many years. Being a stay at home mom was a nice gig but its time to cowboy up and do things that must be done. I may have found a new calling as a nurse. That is sort of my new job. Attending CNA training classes and considering furthering that later but for now let’s just see how this goes. 

What you may have been waiting for is an intro to the new things in life. What is it to be a working mom with my kids half grown and two of them pretty much flown from my nest. Well there is a whole mess of new in all of that. The new man is amazing and kind. He is learning patience and loving and generous to all around him. His heart is huge and for me there is so much I would love to share but I would rather not embarrass him with my gushing over all of his greatness. Although I will say he is very easy on the eyes! The new job is great. I have been learning quite a bit and it’s different than where I thought I would be at this stage but it is good. I have great co-workers and support in this new adventure. The house we live in even looks new!! New paint, new furniture, new fridge, its all quite cosmetic but it also reflects much deeper changes. The clutter is gone! It was cleaned out in July, a chore that sorely needed to be done and it was so liberating!! Dishes no longer stack up in the sink. There is no huge pile of laundry to attempt to tame. Order has been restored and I have to give thanks, to God for one because he blessed me with my children who have proven to be resilient and my dear sweet amazing man who keeps chugging along with me. This week we are 7 months into this huge transition and I have mever been happier. 

Change is hard!! BUT it can be beautiful!! Love and Light y’all!!
