I really don't know what to think of today. On one hand...I'm feeling a bit better and not so apprehensive about the test. On the other hand...I spoke with my mom today and found out one of my uncles is in the hospital and it doesn't look like he will be with us much longer. I haven't seen him in quite awhile but it still takes my breath away. He is my mom's brother and she said that the last time he was in the hospital he said "I just want to die". From the sounds of it he is tired and just wants to go home. Home = heaven. Mom said that she and two of her sisters will be going to see him this week and she will let me know how he is doing and if he passes away. At this point I'm not sure if I will go down for the funeral if he does. Does that sound horrible? We weren't close but he is still family. As you all know...family is everything to me. I'll discuss it with my mom and see what she thinks I should do.
I hate death. I know it's part of life but the finality of it all...just difficult for me to deal with. My grandpa died when I was 16 years old. I did not go to his funeral. To this day I completely regret it. I did not get to say goodbye and even though I know he is gone...I still expect to see him when I'm in CA. Strange...I know but I still miss him. After 20 years....I still want to make my grandpa proud of me.
***I love you grandpa and I miss you***

Too much...

 There are days I enjoy living my life.  There are days I thoroughly hate it.  Yesterday, while grocery shopping, I almost had a breakdown.  Standing there in the aisle, I had to fight, with everything in me, to not start crying.   Too much has been hitting me this month and I think I'm at the end of my rope.   Beginning of the month, D's new wife sent me a text telling me to lose his number, email and address because I already had my chance with him. I laughed at the absurdity of everything she said in that text as it sounded like something a teenaged girl would write. I haven't wanted that man in almost 20 years, so, she is either highly jealous of his past and any woman he used to be interested in or is extremely insecure with herself and her relationship.  Regardless of her mental state, I told her I was just catching up on life with him, but I will respect her request and not talk to him again.  I've been told she has been married 4...

2004 - 2023

  Twenty years ago, I was a mess. I was belittled and demeaned to the point where I hated myself and would have done anything to hurt those who hurt me. From family to friends to men. I lashed out, created more drama than was necessary and didn't care who I hurt. As long as they were hurt before they hurt me, I justified my words and actions. If someone DID hurt me? God help them. I held nothing back. I'm not proud of who I was. I am ashamed of who I was. I did things I should have never done, and I cannot take any of it back no matter how desperately I wish I could. Today, in 2023, I am someone completely different than who that woman was in 2004. I'm not the unmedicated mentally ill person anymore. I'm getting healthy not only mentally but physically. I'm more successful than I was told I would ever be. I'm not the loser bitch that I was told I was. I'm a good person with an "I have gone through hell" history. I am a woman who struggles with ea...

People who say they love you...

Shouldn't be the very people who hurt you the most.  For me, the worst damage comes from those who said they loved me and they were the people who destroyed me.  And people wonder why I don't believe in love.
