I bought this yesterday for my little buddy who will make his entrance sometime the end of August.

It counts, sings colors, plays classical music. They will be able to hang it on the crib, stroller, baby carrier or he can hold it and just play with it. I'm digging this. Get to spoil him and then send him back to his mommy and daddy. Perfect. :) I'm going to buy one thing every payday. That will give him 5 LeapFrog toys and the quilt I'm going to be making. The toy I bought yesterday is for 3+ months. The next one will be 9+ months and so on. Yes...he is going to be spoiled.

My mom and dad are going to be up here visiting with us in June. Mom said she would bring her sewing machine so I can work on the baby quilt. She said she never uses it so I may as well use it. :) I love my mom. She said that Heather has a baby bump now and looks so cute. They have been discussing names but haven't decided yet. I'm so excited about being an Aunt. :)

Once I get the quilt done I'll post it just like I have posted K's bedroom pics. LOL Kidding...I'll get some pics done of the room when it's totally done. I still have the valance to hang up. Once I do that...I promise you will see how gorgeous it is.

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.
