I have been getting such positive feedback about the goal I have set for myself. I honestly didn't think I would. What I plan on doing by August 2007 will put me in such an amazing frame of mind and I'm getting more and more psyched about doing it. I know there are people who read this who will laugh and say I can't do it. Those are people who are not friends or people who truly love and care about me. There are also people who read this who know I can do it and will support me and back me up completely. Want to know what I'm planning on doing? Click on this and you will find out. It's going to take a lot of hardwork and determination...I won't even try to kid myself that it won't be difficult. I want to do this to prove not to others but to myself that I am a strong person...mentally and physically. I read the stats on it and out of 10,ooo people who attempt the summit only about 1/2 of them make it. With strength, courage and God's grace...I will be in the latter part. A very dear friend of mine has said he is open to considering doing it with me. If I even begin to say I can't do this...he will push me and keep me going. I will do this. For me...I will do it. Besides...I'll have a killer looking hot bod afterwards. ;)

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...

day by day

 Each day that passes is a day I see my life, past and present, a bit clearer.  I see who I am and who I've always been.  I grew up in a house where love wasn't something we said or showed.  I realize now, I wasn't taught how to love.  I had a brother who was very verbally abusive towards me and a mom who just didn't seem to care.  Her focus was on my brother.  My dad was quiet and didn't say a whole lot of anything.  My parents were raised in homes that didn't show or say love so they carried that into the raising of their kids.  My brother is the same way.    I looked at a photo of my mom today and I felt like I was looking at a stranger.  I always wanted a mom and I would do everything I could to make my mom into that person.  She just isn't and I can see that no matter how much I sugar-coat who she is and what she did to me, the reality of it is that she didn't want me.  She made that very clear 3 years ago. ...
