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!!!!

Update....

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.

My NJROTC Brat....

I just wanted to show everyone how proud I am of my son, he wants to go into the military and become a PA after high school.....WOW...I am amazed.

Now for an update about what has been going on lately, when I am now longer working as an ER tech and I am no longer working midnights...YEAH!!!

I am however working in an assisted living place working better hours, and it is closer to my home..which it saves me gas..ans what is the deal with the gas prices...it is crazy...the last time I went to the pump it was $4.87 a gallon...WTF?????

My husband has convinced me to go back to nursing school and give it a try..he is switching to evening classes so someone will be here for the kids....I am scared but I am willing to try it...I will keep everyone informed.

Peace, love and many blessings

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!!!!
