Is it or is it not?

Originally posted 2021-06-07 16:39:09. I have an appointment in the morning for the results of my sinus ct scan! Wish me luck! Now if they would hurry up with the ct scan of my pelvic/abdominal area… They found some spots when they did my ultrasound so the doc sent out for ct scan. Just waiting for them to call and set up the appointment for that. I feel like I’m gonna glow by the time…

Double break

Originally posted 2023-03-16 15:30:55. Well my kid said go big or go home I guess. Somehow he managed to break his tooth and break his retainer 🤦🏼‍♀️. Not really sure how that happened. But leave it to him to do it. So off to the dentist we went. Then left there and went to the orthodontist to get a new retainer since it probably wouldn’t fit anymore. As you can see it wasn’t a horrible…

Why one and not the other?

Originally posted 2014-04-28 12:22:59. Since my children have been doing so much in their lives it has seemed to attract the attention of the bio father’s family. But one thing that angers us off is it seems to be so one-sided. Always about my daughter not my son. Asking about so many things where she is concerned. Even a few years ago calling her on her birthday and for the first time sending her a…

Beauty Undefined

Originally posted 2019-01-08 10:00:20. “Sometimes what we are so insecure with, others find beauty in. 💖 “ I love this tank! This brand is more than just #fashion – It’s a statement for #women that have gone through hell and back. Who have looked the devil in the eyes til he backed down! Have been damaged but overcame it all and survived! http://ow.ly/wsNb50xZtBp

What’s my size? ME

Originally posted 2014-04-25 20:01:32. I have dealt with weight issues since I was a wee little girl. Growing up in the south in the 70’s…I mean food is food. You were told to eat your food and you ate it. But the times were different. My grandparents especially my father’s mom, having lived through the great depression had 5 deep freezers…FIVE..slam packed full of stuff. I remember after high school I went to visit her.…

How to start healing?

Originally posted 2020-01-03 12:45:35. How do you start healing after this? I had to walk over to the pond they went in. I thought that would have brought me some closure but it unfortunately didn’t help. I told my my bff (who is their momma) that I thought it would help me. Last time I saw them I saw all 4 kids, their momma and their daddy. Now we see them and then don’t see…

Well SHIT!

Originally posted 2021-06-01 15:00:56. This past weekend turned out to be one I’ll remember for a very long time. It started out where Saturday morning we picked up my husband’s dually pickup truck after the tires had been installed and the inspection had been done. We left and went to the gas station, got 10 gallons, just enough for now since he had a few things he needed to work on before he drives it…

I am still walking, breathing, talking, and I’m ok with that.

Originally posted 2014-04-23 13:35:05. Ok, from the first time I got sick, to the first surgery to the last. They all were needed for something. After 19 surgeries…let’s see. One of the bigger ones was the spinal fusion. November 2004. Went to the doctor for a CT/MRI follow-up. He tells me…you broke your spine. I literally thought he was playing. I mean come on. You are still walking and can feel yet you are telling…

What Title?

Originally posted 2019-12-30 07:38:22. Yeah, I wasn’t in a mood to try to figure out a fitting title this morning. As I sit here waiting for my pain medications to kick in I was just thinking. Though that’s hard for some of us natural blonde’s 😉 It started in 2017. My husband lost his grandmother so we went to Tampa to be with family. To celebrate her life, the matriarchal legacy. Even though I knew…

It’s a tragedy just waiting to happen

Originally posted 2014-04-20 15:00:40.   OK, so I recently saw a commercial for the at home test kit for HIV. I am sure there are some of you reading this that think its accessibility is awesome. Personally, I feel it is the next tragedy waiting to happen. My reasons? Let see…. If you read the post about my rapes you will recall the person that helped me out that had HIV. Well that same person ended up…
