Well if that doesn't tick me off!!! I went to go play with my new iP0d yesterday and I can't download anything until I upgrade my stupid computer. I need to have Wind0ws 2000 or XP. I have the dinosaur 98. Grrrr....I so totally could have used it while working in the yard yesterday. When K found out I have an iP0d now...she wasn't happy. I'm sure she will get over it. ;)
I've been doing some pondering lately. I wonder why we as a society let our bodies go to hell in a handbasket when we are in a relationship...whether it's being married, engaged or dating? Everyone does it. Even I have done it. While I was with Darren I went from a size 8 to a 10...of course the stupid estrogen helped with that. Just because we have found the person we want to spend time with or the rest of our lives with doesn't mean we can just forget how we look to them. I know we are supposed to be loved for who we are inside but we also need to take care of the outside. If not...the person we thought we were going to be with forever will end up searching outside of the relationship for the satisfaction they got when they first met us. Men are visual creatures and if they aren't turned on by the outside they certainly aren't going to say "Oh but she has a great personality..." I just see it all the time and it's sad. To see how a person goes from taking really good care of themselves to looking like they don't care anymore. We may be comfortable where we are and who we are with but don't take them for granted. I know I did that with Darren. Thank goodness I'm out of that phase. :) It's always hair done and makeup on for me...no matter what. Ok...when I am working in the yard it's not. Cut me some slack ok? Sheesh...LOL

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.
