    About Me

    I'm a 42 year old woman- mom to 4 fantastic kids. Married for 18 years to an emotionally and abusive man. That kind of crept up on me. Looking back, of course, I can see- but couldn't see it at first. Started having light-bulb moments when I was taking our youngest (7) to a psychologist for adhd and after talking to him, she would start asking me about my husband. Then a friend pointed me here, thankfully. I'm working up to leaving him- for me, after all of these years, it is definitely a process.

    Interests

    books- mystery and cook books. Music, especially My Chemical Romance and the Beatles. I'm trying to teach my self to crochet, may have to take lessons, though!
