About Me

Burlington, NC, United States
All I can say about me is that I am a survivor of domestic violence. The only good thing that came out of my first marriage is that I have three wonderful sons and that I am now a much stronger person, I have grown into a better person. I am now married to a great man who has adopted my sons, and loves them as his own, as they are his now..he even says that the two younger ones look like him...my life is good. I have a son with autism so that has become a goal in my life, to help raise awareness and find a cure. I also have a son that is Bi-polar, and well all I can say is that autism is easy to deal with compared to Bi-polar disorder, well that is a little blurb about me.

Listen to music as you read!!!!

I will just call this the December post, since it is December and I have been slacking on most everything lately. Life is crazy, my lovely hubby got another dog..he said this one is his....like my life is crazy enough....

I am still working 2 jobs, one of them I HATE...and one I LOVE....of course the full time job is the one that I HATE.......I keep praying for a different job....as you can tell I am depressed...this Christmas just isn't what I want it to be....I miss cold weather and snow...and of course money....

Hope everyone has a great Holiday Season...be safe and have fun....

Sorry to be a downer, but I just can't seem to see things any other way. I know people have it worse than me, and I am grateful for my kids and surviving the car wreak. But I can not feel happiness anymore...my youngest wants to go to church but I can not make myself go...I have lose my way in life in every aspect of it. Not sure what to do...I just want to thank my blogging friends for there reply's and kind words. Hopefully someday things will change and change for the better...I am tired of crying.

Sorry ya'll I need to vent........

Okay, first of all moving to NC was one of the WORST mistakes of my life....I hate it here and it is effecting my marriage....I have NO friends here and my oldest is in so MUCH trouble with the law, school and pretty much everyone around. I have prayed but nothing is working...I am working at a job that I hate, my husband is in a dead end job..out good credit in now really, really bad. I am ready to have my phone turned off to avoid the bill collectors, I want to pay them, we just don't have to money. Things really suck..I was diagnosed with high blood pressure 2 weeks ago and I am now taking medication for it....I never had high blood pressure until we moved here. I am to the point of not knowing what to do....I really don't know what to do anymore. things have just went down hill and I do not see the light at the end of the tunnel. I want my old life back!!!!
On a good note, my middle son made straight A's on his report card and my youngest made all A's and B's...my oldest the one with an IQ of 127 is failing 4 subjects...
Me and my husband have talked about going back to OH, but there is nothing there for us..at least that is how he puts it...I feel like there is..but he will not agree to go back...not sure why..his family lives there. I was happy there..but not here. I have really tried...I have to set and wonder if I am meant to be unhappy....I don't want to leave my husband just to move back to OH. Life really just sucks right now..I have had nothing but bad luck since moving to this freakin' state....I really hate it. Sorry to vent but I needed to before I screamed.

MVA

Okay, Monday REALLY REALLY sucked....I was on my way to work, (at my new job that I have only been at for 2 weeks)..My car was hit by a tractor trailer and spun across 4 lanes of traffic on I-77 in Charlotte NC.........How I survived with only minor injuries I am not sure...I walked myself to the ambulance....my car is totaled....and the trucking company is not wanting to pay for any damages....I am happy and lucky to be alive, but I still have to feel that why me...things have been so bad lately for our family...and then this happens...I do truly feel that I had angels watching over me that day....I am having nightmares about the wreck and I can not sleep....any advice????

And I will post pictures of my car in the next few days...

My last day @ my current job...a reflextion...

Okay, today is a bitter sweet day, I am starting a new job on Tuesday. I have been at this current job for awhile starting out as a CNA then was gone for my surgery and came back as there receptionist..and for the past 4 weeks I have BEGGED for more hours...(FYI: I only work 2 days a week)...There is a full time opening and I have begged for that as well...so I am now tired of begging...My employer is not giving me any hours, or offereing me any. So today is mu last day..I am quitting, but the funny thing is that I gave them my resignation 2 over the past 2 weeks and they will not accept it...oh well that is not there problem.

I really have enjoyed the people and the residents of this place, but it is time to move on...

As for my kids there are enjoying being back in school, my oldest will start on Tuesday, he will be going to a college prep school. ( Charter School). He is excited and nervous all at the same time.

Now for a reflextion on the move to NC, it has been a year since we moved here..I see it as one of the worst moves we have made. My husband had to quit school..(the reason we moved here) because we could no longer afford to live with him only working part time, and me part time. I have gave up on school, so I guess I will never live my dream and always be a big dumb loser. And now my husband is a quitter as well, the resentment for this move is even bigger now....Not sure how to handle it.

The ecomomy sucks here and so does the pay, not sure how to find my inner happiness any more.....it has been crushed..my dream has died....so now I will work as a phlebotomist in a huge hospital for base pay..which isn't much...but at least it is a dollar and twenty cents more than where I am now. But I have to drive and extra 25+ miles. ...So I will not be making any more money, because of the gas prices and milage...but I will get many more hours than the place I am at now.

Things just are the way I planned them....what went wrong??? I wish I knew....

Peace to all

Wednesday, August 27, 2008

TJ was cleared....

I took my middle son to the cardiologist today for his evaluation, and yes he has a murmur which we have been aware of for years..but he does not have the heart defect that his big brother has...now that was a relief. I will post pictures soon..I have been slacking lately....I have 2 kids in school already and the oldest goes next week..he decided that he did not want to go back to his public school, so we are sending him to a charter school. He wants to go and doesn't really mind the thought of having to wear a uniform...I guess he really is growing up...and he past drivers ed...oh here goes our car insurance rates even higher....look out drivers of the world...lol.

Peace for now...

okay..so now I am confused?????

Okay, I am confused...and don't now what to do...Here is the deal...in one day I have had 3 job offers, count'em.."3".....

The first one is working across the street from my house, it is at the grocery store working in the front office...the other one is a HUGE hospital in Charlotte..making only one dollar and 27 cents more that the grocery store..and then I was offered a job at a car dealership doing internet sells and follow ups...in which this is the only job that I have no experience at but they will train me,,it pays better than the other jobs combined....So what do I do?? Do I stay in my comfort zone of health care/grocery.....or do I go for something totally different.

Please help...I am confused..I don't want to make the wrong decision.

Peace and blessings
And a please send any prayers our way for my sons.
Thanks

My hand is healing.........

Sorry, but I have no pictures to post...but I can say that my hand is healing, but looks really gross....We are waiting patiently for school to start, the kids are bored out of there minds...come on Aug 25....A lot has happened lately, my middle child is having a EGD done in the morning, (they are going down in throat into his stomach to see if they can tell why he is getting choked so much). And my oldest went to a cardiologist today for high blood pressure at 15 years of age...and we ended up with some major disturbing news..they said that he has a congenital heart defect, called "bicuspid aortic valve"...well I know from nursing school that he should have a "tricuspid valve"...so this means trips to the cardiologist every 6 months, until he has complications and then they will do surgery to replace the defective valve in his heart. Okay, here is the kicker since it is congential I have to get the other 2 kids screened for this defect. All really remember is being told is that he has mild to moderate aortic insufficiency and heart valve defect...I am speechless and don't know what to think or say at this point.

Sorry to ramble, but I need to make sense of this, but I am not sure that I can...it seems like it is always something.....I just want something good to happen or be told something good once in awhile.....again sorry to vent....peace to everyone.

Recovery...

I am slowly recovering from surgery....I had no idea that it would be this painful and slow to recover from carpel tunnel surgery..the surgery was on my right hand...FYI..I am RIGHT handed...so I am so freakin' helpless with most everything. And now the stitches are itching...I have 7 of them in the palm of my hand....I can not write or grip anything.....I was told it can take up to 7 weeks for me to be able to grip anything...it REALLY REALLY sucks...I am typing with my left hand...so since I am very slow at this time..I will leave for now...love , peace and many blessings to all.

10 days without internet.......

I am so excited to have my internet back, just as an FYI we moved over a week ago and were just now able to get the phone company out to hook up our phone and internet...it has been a long 10 days.

As for everything else, my oldest started drivers ed classes today....that is a scary thought....his birthday is Thursday and he will be 15. So we had to celebrate his birthday yesterday on Sunday. All he wanted was to go out and eat and give him money to go shopping. As we are eating diner at his favorite restaurant, TJ my middle son (the one with autism) started to make funny noises, we were not sure what he was doing until he collapsed on the floor and was turning blue. Needless to say he was not playing he was choking and I had to preform the Heimlich on him....thank God he is okay ...I an still a nervous wreck and am scared to let him eat without him in my sight.

And for other news..I am having surgery on Friday, so I am not sure if I will be on here much for awhile...I have nerve damage in my wrist from carpel tunnel syndrome, so now I have to have surgery on it so it does not get any worse. I have really had to set back and look at life over that past few weeks and all I can say is...man what a ride it has been..it has to get better..so I am gonna try to look on the more positive side for awhile and see what happens. Peace, love and happiness to all till next time.

HAPPY 4TH OF JULY !!!!!!

I wanted to wish everyone a HAPPY 4TH OF JULY...after Thursday I might not be on here for a few days..we are moving on the 4th...(o what fun that will be)...and just as a FYI..I am not longer in nursing school...I quit. In a lot of ways I am relieved and in a lot of ways I am pissed. I can not really describe the way I feel at this moment. So much crap has happened since we moved here. Things have worked out for everyone in this family except....ME....I still don't understand it. So instead of wallowing in my own self pity...I wanted to wish everyone a great holiday weekend. Wishing everyone many blessings, love and peace.

Why You Are Hearing More about Autism

Why You Are Hearing More about Autism

It has been a high profile year for autism.
A severely autistic
Minnesota boy was banned from church.
An autistic kindergartner in
Florida was voted out of class.
A mother and her autistic son were
thrown off an American Airlines flight at Raleigh-Durham International
Airport.
And another mother and autistic toddler were kicked off an
airplane in Huston reportedly because the boy was repeating ..bye, bye
plane' during the safety speech.


"There is so much Americans need to learn about living in this world
with Autistic children," says Barbara Coppo, mother of an autistic boy
and author of "The Boy In The Window.
"

Perhaps we are hearing more about autism in the news because there are
more autistic children in America than ever before.
The CDC's most
recent study estimates one out of every 150 children over the age of 8
is autistic or suffers from a related disorder.
Today, 560 thousand
Americans under the age of 21 have autism.
That number is hundreds of
thousands higher than just 30 years ago.


Autism may frighten people because so little is known about the
disorder.
The cause has not been scientifically proven and the victims
often act in ways society doesn't understand.


"We were told by doctors and professionals to institutionalize him
because of his extreme behaviors and inability to adapt socially,"
reveals Coppo, who is 66 and credits daily exercise for helping her
sustain the energy to care for Kenny.
Coppo and her husband Ken,
married 46 years, says an institution was never an option for Kenny,
because his home is with them, "We love him so much in spite of his
required 24/7 care.
"

Four times more boys, like Kenny, are affected than girls.
Autism
strikes between the ages of 1 and 3 and affects the victim for the
rest of his or her life.
Though most autistic children have trouble
functioning normally in society many have special gifts.
Coppo says
Kenny is a math wiz.


"The ability and knowledge that someone like him can have is a
miracle," she continues, "but it's a shame that it can easily be
overlooked.
" She credits the different aides who worked with Kenny
over several years for helping to unlock his "uncanny abilities,"
which can go way beyond the normal.


Despite his extraordinary gifts, Coppo still worries about her now
nearly 30-year-old son, "He can and solves incredibly hard math
problems, but if our house is burning down, he wouldn't have the
common sense to get the heck out and would probably resist our efforts
to rescue him." Most times, she admits, he's his own worst enemy.


While little is known about autism, the discrimination now permeating
the news may be just the beginning.
As the number of autistic children
skyrockets Americans will have to learn to live in society alongside
these unique individuals.
It may be up to parents of autistic children
to help break down the barriers of misunderstanding.


"I was once told by a psychologist that I would eventually grow to
resent my son from the burden of raising him," Coppo candidly
reflects.
"While I cry over my worries for Kenny, the truth is I love
him more each day.
" Adding, "My mysterious son has taught me the true
value of what is really precious in life and what is worth fighting
for. I guess that makes him the best gift I could have ever gotten.
"

Barbara Coppo, 66, has spent nearly three decades caring for her
autistic son, Kenny, who is 29-years-old.
As chronicled in her book,
"The Boy in the Window: A Journey Through an Unexpected Tragedy," she
and her husband, Ken, of 46 years had a perfectly healthy baby boy
until 19 months old, when he suffered irreversible brain damage from
the D.P.T. vaccination.
Kenny became autistic, started having seizures
and uncontrollable behaviors.
Barbara's story is filled with love,
frustration, humor and tells of the endless journey she is on to
improve the quality of life of her autistic – and gifted – son, Kenny,
"The Boy in the Window." (www.theboyinthewindowbook.com)


This story sounds like what I was told when I found out about my sons autism, basically told the doctor to go jump off a bridge, my son stays with me, he is a gift from God.

Nursing school

OK, this really sucks. Even I have gotten dumber when I moved to the south OR this is the most ridiculous college out there...you decide....
All I can say is that if I don't get a 87 on this test today I will have to drop out, because that means that I failed the class..If you do the math, yes I really did that bad on the first test. I am more stress here than in OHIO..I really miss OU.....I just want to scream...I am not sure how I can go from an 3.7 GPA getting all A's and B's in nursing school in Ohio and then flunking out down here....It is crazy....Is this the universes way of telling me not to be a nurse or to just go back to Ohio????? Any ideas or suggestions.....
I just wanna cry......

I know it has been awhile since I have blogged anything, so just to update everyone about my crazy life.....well I am in my 3rd week of nursing school..and the workload in crazy and intense....plus trying to work and take care of the kids....here is a brief glimpse of the madness....Monday, Thursday, and Fridays I wake up at 5am to get ready for class and I am in class until about 3pm...one Tuesday and Wednesday I get up at 4am because I have clinicals starting at 6:45am till 3:30pm...plus I work EVERY Saturday and Sunday from 10am to 6pm...now keep in mind I have 3 kids that I have to run to there school and doctors and sporting stuff....and somewhere in there I have to do homework and OH I almost forgot I have a husband in this madness to try to spend time with...and he is still in school and working 2 jobs.....the madness is taking over...
My school is in Charlotte NC and the traffic there SUCKS!!!! Gas prices SUCK.. Food prices SUCK....so we can no longer afford to live in the apartment we have, so we are "downgrading" ourself to a more affordable apartment...in a less "nice" neighborhood...So on top of everything we are in the process of packing to move. I hopefully will post less crazy stuff next time....until then Peace, Love and much happiness.

New Job...

I know it has been awhile since I have been on here, but my new job has me totally tired and confused all the time...I am working night shift (12 hour shifts) in an emergency room as a ED Technician...basically I do everything the nurses DON'T want to do...foleys, EKG's...etc.... I have come to the conclusion that I DO NOT want to be a nurse..at least now...maybe when my kids are older. Life is too short for this crap....I miss my husband and kids..and sleep most of all...I am searching on finding a job in my old profession...(medical assisting or even go back into teaching)...Don't get me wrong nursing is great..but I want to enjoy my kids while they are still young and plus enjoy my life as well....I don't want the stress of nursing right now....Just wanted to update everyone....I am going to try and get some sleep right now ..because I have to work tonight...YUCK!!!!

I have a complaint!!!!

Ok, today I have no pictures or really anything cute to say...Life this past week really sucks...My son with autism is really having a hard time, his meds are not working any more and so he is like a bottle rocket ready to explode..we are starting him on new meds and treatments..so keep your fingers crossed. And now onto another part that sucks...I made a trip to Ohio over the weekend and was supposed to meet up with some friends..but after the plans were made..no one showed up..I drove 7 seven hours for nothing...I am hurt, pissed, and very disappointed....Life in NC sucks as well...I can not find child care anywhere for my kids so I can start back to nursing school....so even after all the crap I went through I still might not get to go....I hate it here......I visited my birth-mother while I was in Ohio and well..the visit started out pretty good then ended up in a shouting match....we will never have a relationship that a mother and daughter should have...I quit trying at this point in my 38 yrs of life...it is not worth it. I have so much bad feelings locked inside me right now that I feel like I want to scream...and of course my husband doesn't understand....he is a man why would he....

National Autism Awareness Day!!!

Todays post will be about my wonderful, beautiful and amazing son. He is unique and loved so much. I would NOT change him, I think he is perfect in every way, my only dream is to have the world see him as I do. I see him as a child that see and lives in the world differently. He is a true gift from GOD and I treasure every second I have with him.

Remember autism effects 1 in 150 children and 1 in 94 of boys are effected. Awareness is the key along with education of society about this disorder. Today April 2 is National Autism Day and April is Autism Awareness Month.

All me love, peace and blessings.

Time out for a political message!!!

March 20, 2008 - Thursday

Barack Obama ?
Current mood: nervous
Category: Religion and Philosophy

Ken Blackwell - Columnist for the New York Sun

It’s an amazing time to be alive in America. We’re in a year of firsts in this presidential election: the first viable woman candidate; the first viable African-American candidate; and, a candidate who is the first front-running freedom fighter over 70. The next president of America will be a first.

We won’t truly be in an election of firsts, however, until we judge every candidate by where they stand. We won’t arrive where we should be until we no longer talk about skin color or gender. Now that Barack Obama steps to the front of the Democratic field, we need to stop talking about his race, and start talking about his policies and his politics.

The reality is this: Though the Democrats will not have a nominee until August, unless Hillary Clinton drops out, Mr. Obama is now the frontrunner, and its time America takes a closer and deeper look at him. Some pundits are calling him the next John F. Kennedy. He’s not. He’s the next George McGovern. And it’s time people learned the facts.

Because the truth is that Mr. Obama is the single most liberal senator in the entire U.S. Senate. He is more liberal than Ted Kennedy, Bernie Sanders, or Mrs. Clinton. Never in my life have I seen a presidential frontrunner whose rhetoric is so far removed from his record. Walter Mondale promised to raise our taxes, and he lost. George McGovern promised military weakness, and he lost. Michael Dukakis promised a liberal domestic agenda, and he lost.

Yet Mr. Obama is promising all those things, and he’s not behind in the polls. Why? Because the press has dealt with him as if he were in a beauty pageant. Mr. Obama talks about getting past party, getting past red and blue, to lead the United States of America. But let’s look at the more defined strokes of who he is underneath this superficial "beauty."

Start with national security, since the president’s most important duties are as commander-in-chief. Over the summer, Mr. Obama talked about invading Pakistan, a nation armed with nuclear weapons; meeting without preconditions with Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who vows to destroy Israel and create another Holocaust; and Kim Jong II, who is murdering and starving his people, but emphasized that the nuclear option was off the table against terrorists - something no president has ever taken off the table since we created nuclear weapons in the 1940s. Even Democrats who have worked in national security condemned all of those remarks. Mr. Obama is a foreign-policy novice who would put our national security at risk.

Next, consider economic policy. For all its faults, our health care system is the strongest in the world. And free trade agreements, created by Bill Clinton as well as President Bush, have made more goods more affordable so that even people of modest means can live a life that no one imagined a generation ago. Yet Mr. Obama promises to raise taxes on "the rich." How to fix Social Security? Raise taxes. How to fix Medicare? Raise taxes. Prescription drugs? Raise taxes. Free college? Raise taxes. Socialize medicine? Raise taxes. His solution to everything is to have government take it over. Big Brother on ste roids, funded by your paycheck.

Finally, look at the social issues. Mr. Obama had the audacity to open a stadium rally by saying, "All praise and glory to God!" but says that Christian leaders speaking for life and marriage have "hijacked" - hijacked - Christianity. He is pro-partial birth abortion, and promises to appoint Supreme Court justices who will rule any restriction on it unconstitutional. He espouses the abortion views of Margaret Sanger, one of the early advocates of racial cleansing. His spiritual leaders endorse homosexual marriage, and he is moving in that direction. In Illinois, he refused to vote a gainst a statewide ban - ban - on all handguns in the state. These are radical left, Hollywood, and San Francisco values, not Middle America values

The real Mr. Obama is an easy target for the general election. Mrs. Clinton is a far tougher opponent. But Mr. Obama could win if people don’t start looking behind his veneer and flowery speeches. His vision of "bringing America together" means saying that those who disagree with his agenda for America are hijackers or warmongers. Uniting the country means adopting his liberal agenda and abandoning any conflicting beliefs.

But right now everyone is talking about how eloquent of a speaker he is and - yes - they’re talking about his race. Those should never be the factors on which we base our choice for president. Mr. Obama’s radical agenda sets him far outside the American mainstream, to the left of Mrs. Clinton.

It’s time to talk about the real Barack Obama. In an election of firsts, let’s first make sure we elect the person who is qualified to be our president in a nuclear age during a global civilizational war.

Subject: Kind of scary, wouldn’t you think? Remember--God is good, and is in time, on time, every time. According to The Book of Revelations the anti-Christ is: The anti-Christ will be a man, in his 40s, of MUSLIM descent, who will deceive the nations with persuasive language, and have a MASSIVE Christ-like appeal....the prophecy says that people will flock to him and he will promise false hope and world peace, and when he is in power, will destroy everything. Is it OBAMA?? I STRONGLY URGE each one of you to repost this as many times as you can! Each opportunity that you have to send it to a friend or media outlet...do it! If you think I am crazy..I’m sorry but I refuse to take a chance on the "unknown" candidate.

I have been TAGGED...

I have been TAGGED by the princess ...so here it goes..
my understanding is that I have to post pictures of my favorite t-shirts and then talk about them a little.

Here is the shirt I wear the most...it says that it is better on the beach.....and it is. Any beach and where and any time. It is faded and worn..but I don't care..I love it.


This one is from my first NASCAR race in Daytona Florida. It is Jamie McMurry car, he drives the autism awareness car. I wear this alot, because I have a son with autism.

Jamie no longer drive the #42 car, but he still is a autsim spokes person, because he has a fmaily member with autism....Go Jamie Go.....
This is my "bobby jack" shirt....and it is all about me.....the inside secret to this shirt is that my hubby's legal name is "Bobby Jack"...and the monkey is really cute as well.
This shirt is of Kasey Kahne..one of many that I have of him....He is my all time favorite driver and also what a little hottie.....

I have multiple t-shirts, but most of them are plain.
