My mom called tonight. Heather had an ultrasound today and it's a boy!!! Woo hoo!!! I'm gonna have a nephew!!! I'm so excited I can't stand it. My parents are just ecstatic. Everyone was wanting a little boy. Especially my parents because they already have my girls so they want a grandson. Now they are going to get one.


I've tried to figure out what to get him and I figgered it out tonight. Every payday I'm going to go get him something from Leap Pad. There are some really cool things in that line. I found a totally cool Baby Einstein musical thingy to put on the baby carrier which is a must buy. I'll start buying things for Heather also through out the months. Everyone always forgets the mama. So I'm going to make her a basket of spa type things. I have 5 months so it should come along really nicely.




Now if I can only find a sewing machine. I have all the pieces for a quilt for my little man but no machine to put them together. Need to start perusing the classifieds and yard sales will be starting up soon. :) Nothing will be too good for my little man...:)



He is gonna love his Aunt Tracey and I'm gonna be the coolest Aunt...well in his eyes I will be. LOL He is going to think his Aunt Tracey is all that and a bag of chips. Of course he will be my main reason for going to California now. Shhhh...don't tell my parents. ;)

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.
