Raised By A Narcissist And An Empath
The definition of a narcissist is, "a person who has excessive interest in or admiration of themselves" so, this means they care about nothing and no one except themselves. On the other spectrum, the definition of an empath is, "a person with the paranormal ability to apprehend the mental or emotional state of another individual" so this means sometimes caring to much for others and not enough about themselves. Put the two together and add parenting and you get a complete disaster.

The Struggle Between Sickness and Strength
The Struggle Between Sickness and Strength My mom’s voice echoes in my head, “ Do you have any questions?” The question itself hangs in the air like a fog following a storm that has yet to settle. Do I have any questions, she asks? I appreciate her concern, but what about her? Is she okay? Is she going to be okay? Is she scared? Is she asking the vary question no one has the answer to? -- Is she going to live? My mom has been through so many things, her battles linger in my head like a war cry as she announces the next battle to come -- the ultimate battle: The one against cancer. The sword of this battle is set in my shaking hands, her presence weighs on my shoulders. There is no greater obstacle in life than learning how to overcome something you cannot control. This is the obstacle that will make every other struggle seem unimportant.

From Bottles to Bottles
"Mommy, will you take our order?" my four- year old yells from her chair. She smiles broadly as I run off to the kitchen to prepare her peach slices, my two- year old son's Frosted Flakes, and check on the biscuits I have in the oven. As I explain to an insistent and angry toddler that the biscuits have to cook and I can only bring them so fast, my 15 years in the Bar and Restaurant industry serve me well. I might as well be back at Waffle House denying a tipsy clubber his biscuits and sausage gravy at 3 am. Somehow my sober son manages to be more belligerent, but he is no match for me, who has distracted and calmed him by the time he realizes he has a biscuit in front of him. With the pandemic, illness, and baby number three forcing my hand into full restaurant and bar retirement, I thought embracing my stay-at-home mom persona would change me and found it was not much different than managing the bar on a busy night. I break up fights, people fall over a lot, and I'm cleaning up more vomit than anybody is paying me for. I'm still up at three am, I have to cut people off because they will drink chocolate milk until they throw up, and the newborn gets really handsy.
