    • About Me

      I am a 32 yr old mom of three.I am currently pregnant with my fourth child due in Febuary of 2009. I am recently re-married. I was married before for over a decade to Dale who killed himself in the middle of our divorce. He left a very confused set of sons. He left a very confused wife. But that's something we deal with regularly. We shouldn't. I deal with low self esteem, eating disorders, and ADD. Both on my end and on my older child's end. I love my new man very much, and will do anything to make it last. I have an inablilty to trust others, and don't even trust my own decisions.

    • Interests

      My family, and my friends. Everything else comes as fast as it goes.I enjoy selling my items on ebay. I enjoy finding good deals. I miss working believe it or not. Gave me that needed time away. I remember looking forward to coming home. I don't look forward to home anymore. I don't look forward to being everyone's maid. No one thanks me, no one says oh this looks really nice. No one cares. I really thought I would look forward to being an at home mom, and at the moment I hate it.
