  • Day One of Facing Reality

    Tuesday, October 21, 2008 | A Painful story

       I guess it is about time to face reality. He is not coming back, and if he did, would I want him? What would I do? How could I take him back again? How could I trust? How could I simply look him in the face? How could I sit with him knowing what he is capable of? I simply cannot let him back in. He has deceived me and broke my heart. No one that loves me can treat me so poorly. I wis...

    How can I learn to be happy when I just want to drink? I drown my sorrows and I know HE is out there having fun with someone...he is not sad. I am. No one wil ever want me the way I am. I have to change but I just can't right now. God, please help me. It just hurts so much right now. Am I ever going to feel normal again?

  • Got to get a grip

    Thursday, October 30, 2008 | A Painful story

    I woke up this morning feeling horrible. I have got to get a grip on my physical well being. I feel emotionally and physically drained. I have put on the "Hey, I'm just fine, how are you?" face on all week and I am just tired. Heck, I'm tired of being tired. I have to be cheerful at school during the day because the children do not deserve any less. It is draining to have to fake your well being ...

    Sunday, November 9, 2008 | A Painful story

    A short entry, because I need to go to bed. Tomorrow is Monday ( a school day). I am just so mad and angry with myself. I am wondering when I am going to stop this self destructive behavior. I am tired of wreaking on motorcycles, drinking too much, and smoking. That is the reason he left me! Can you believe he said he left because I drink and smoke too much? First of all, that is not a reason to ...

    its crazy how a feeling can just overwhelm you within a matter of seconds, out of no where. how emotional pain can make you feel like you're unable to breathe, to have you on the floor crying not able to get back up.
    the pain i have right now is indescribable.
    because i know anytime from now to my actual due date, december 12, i would have josh in my arms. i was going to have a c-section done...

  • On going smoking saga

    Saturday, February 2, 2013 | A Painful story

    Day 14
    When oh when will I learn... I can not do that much in one day anymore. My back is killing me today. that means today has to be pretty much a down day which in turn makes me think of smoking cause I can't do what I want to do. frustrations are the pits... oh well the heating pad is helping and Tylenol .Tomorrow is another day...so far so good on not smoking.
