      My kids. Love them to bits. Really love going to the park with them, hanging out watching movies, just watching them play and everything in between. Love hanging out with my sister and her kids and her boyfriend. Hanging out with my friends when I have the time , wish there was more time to spend with them. School, looking forward to starting and finishing it so I can get a good job and be financially independent. Reading , writing journals and letters mostly to myself. Watching movies. Being out doors , camping , going for walks , relaxing in the sun. Making my home mine, it's a slow process as the is a lot of work and little time and money to do so. But every little bit I accomplish makes me feel a bit better.

      Been seperated from my x for a year and 3 months. He has completely abandoned our 4 children and moved across the country. We have not seen him in 6 months. Phone calls are getting more and more rare. And I worry about him everyday. He is involved with very bad people and does some very bad drugs. But I am doing what I need to do to take care of my children and move on with life.
