Frankly Ronda is a collection of thoughts from a woman in midlife whose brain churns endlessly. This blog is in motion meaning it will reveal its intent as I do the work of transferring thoughts out of my head. It might be messy at first.

I have found that I frequently do not think about things the same as others.

Here are the categories I expect to see:
  • Being - "The nature or essence of a person" which is jumbled for me right now.
  • Cancer - I had breast cancer and chose a bilateral mastectomy with no reconstruction thus I live Flat.
  • Experiences - New experiences fill my cup.
  • Frankly - See definition above and read with caution.
  • Keep It Simple - Living day to day and creating a conscious and simple life.
  • Marriage - I have been married over 20 years to Husband who commutes from Houston so lots going on there.
  • Mental Health - I manage life with moderate depression and mild OCD always hovering. I have loved ones struggling will mental illness and some who have left this world too soon because of it.
  • Relationships - Family, friends and anyone crossing paths.
  • Teens - Because I have two teenage sons, Oldest Son (age 18) and Youngest Son (age 16), who provide material every single day!
  • Foster Care - The journey we are choosing. We will foster elementary age kiddos not to adopt but to get them through whatever difficulty is happening in their life.
  • Tolerance - I am socially open thus my writings will reflect a certain slant.

I have two other blogs that are retired:
Commuter Family from 2013 to 2016
Moving Kids to Mexico from 2008 to 2012
