  • Inheritance

    by MissT You gave me your eyesbut not your vision.Your voice,but only to silence mine. I was raised on tension,tiptoes,and the art of staying small.You taught me how to shrinkbefore I ever learned to shine. You called it discipline.I know now it was projection. Still, I took what you couldn’t giveand gave it to myself.Kindness.Boundaries.A…

  • Level Up

    When You Level Upby MissT When you level up,your old life will come calling.It’ll knock in familiar tones —voices you once cried for,hands that hurt,memories dressed up as love. It’ll whisper:“Come back. We miss you. It wasn’t that bad, was it?” But don’t go back. You’ve already answered those calls before.You’ve played the peacekeeper.You’ve broken…

  • Surviving More Than This Heat

    by MissT https://divorceddamagedanddangerous.wordpress.com It’s 33 degrees outside.The kind of heat that clings to your skin like shame.The kind of heat that makes you question your life choices—like leaving the fan in the attic or saying yes to the wrong person. Again. The weather app screams “extreme”,but darling, so am I. Because I’ve survived more than…

  • 🧠 When the Chaos Had a Name

    By MissT I thought I was just messy.Disorganised. Emotional. A magnet for disaster.I thought I was just shit with money, hopeless with routines, and too forgiving with men who didn’t deserve me. Turns out, it was ADHD.Undiagnosed. Unacknowledged. Unspoken. Not a character flaw.Not bad decisions.Not “just how I am.” ADHD — the quiet thief of…

  • from ashes to author

    From the Ashes to the Author: How I Rebuilt a Life Worth Livingby MissT There was a time I couldn’t see the light. Not because I didn’t want to—but because the darkness around me was too thick, too loud, too bloody persistent. I was surviving, barely. Holding families together, patching broken men, bending myself into…

  • Hot Wheels and Home Truths

    By MissT Just back from a flying visit to Northampton — and by flying, I mean crawling down the M5 in 33 degrees with the air con gasping like it had given up on life. Went to see Julie. Only stayed the night. It was one of those whirlwind visits where you talk fast, laugh…

  • life plan

    So. I never had a life plan.Never knew which way was up or down.Left from right. Right from wrong.Just kept going. Surviving. And now — five decades in — is this it?Is this what peace feels like?Single.Safe.Still. I was terrified to face it. Thought I needed someone to hold me up, catch me when I…

  • Reset

    by MissT I don’t keep soft for the wrong hands,don’t fold my edges to fit.I’ve earned this quiet — this clearing where peace, not pity, sits. I don’t chase echoes anymore,don’t knock on doors that stayed shut.I’ve learned to light candles in silenceand pour wine for one — uncut. I’m not waiting on the message,not…
