    About Me

    I have been married to a wonderful man for 10 years. of course we have had our ups and downs through this 10 years. I have went through a lot during our marriage. My childhood memories that I blocked out has come back to haunt me after giving birth to a beautiful baby boy back in 2000. I had trouble with taking care of him. A family member took him in for us. I was real depressed and confused about my childhood. I was having terrible nightmares and flashbacks. I didn't know how to control or if I could stop them. Sadly I turned to suicide attempts. I started to get better in 2001. Then in 2002 I gave birth to our 2st son. We wanted to raise him but was scared do to the things that I was told and made to believe. So my family member got him to. They was adopted by my family member back in Feb of 2003. I have been grateful that we have been able to see them raised up. Sad that we have been unable to raise them our self. In August of 2007 we got bad news about what my family members husband did. I was doing good up until this point. At this point I was off of my meds for over 5 years and doing well. Then after the news we got I try to kill myself again. Thankful it did not work and I was truly able to get the help that I did. I am now doing much better but I am still dealing with some issues. If you would like to know more about me than please feel free to read my journals or ask me.

    Interests

    I like to read all kinds of books. I like to cook and I am pretty good at it. I am now learning healthier ways to cook food. I love dolphins and I wish to swim with them someday. I like horses but I haven't been able to be around them to much in my life. I love to swim and I do that as much as I can. I also like to go out on four wheelers and go mudslinging.

      Hey honey, yeah it was me the other day. I can't believe she would do that to me! I have sorted it all out and she won't be able to get into any of my things now. I went to the docs and they did a blood test, she says I have miscalculated the days?! I'll find out in a couple of days. How is everything with you? x x x
