This evening was a total surprise. Margaret called and said she was hungry and wanted dinner. I was like...well eat you dork. She said...well lets go get a burger or a sandwich. I had no idea she was already in town. :) She came over and gave me some birthday presents...of which I was not expecting any. You can say I was beyond surprised with what she gave me. She made me a really cool pink scarf, gave me some pretty candles and some other things she made. The most surprising gift? A pink leather coat. Hello!!! It's gorgeous and so me. LOL It fits just like a glove and is perfect.
Margaret and I have been friends for close to 25 years. We were roommates for a brief period of time. I can honestly say that she is someone I would trust my kids lives with. There are not many people I can say that about. The select few would be Tina, Margaret, Sabrina, Debbie and Robert. They say you can count on one hand how many people in your life you can completely and totally rely upon. Looks like I just named them. I love my friends...:)
Tomorrow we are going out to dinner and dancing. You can safely say I will be looking Pretty in Pink. :)

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.
