Where Am I . . .

11 Jan
Written By

Are you where you thought you would be in life?

 

I am not where I thought I would be in life. The plans I had made when I was younger all went out the window when I got pregnant and placed my daughter for adoption or when I got diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis when I was 15. I always thought that by the time I was in my late 20’s I would have my RN and either be a traveling nurse or work in the ER. I never would have guessed that I would be living at home again, going through a divorce, and working as a receptionist. I also never would have guessed that I would have had a child and placed her for adoption.

It is crazy to me how my life has turned out and what I have been through. I don’t think there is anyway that anyone could ever guess where their lives was going to go. I am hoping that I will be able to live my dream one day and work in the ER or even Life Flight.

I don’t regret anything that has happened in my life because if I didn’t go through everything I have gone through I wouldn’t be the person I am today. I wouldn’t change anything about how my life is because I have grown and I am truly happy with who I am today.

MS Tuesday-75%

10 Jan
Written By
***This is was originally posted on October 12, 2010. I am going to be re-posting some of my MS posts because I have gotten so many new followers and I want to share them with my new readers.

I found a stat during invisible illness week that really shocked me but in the same sense it made total sense to me. It said that 75% of marriages where one person has a chronic illness end in divorce. I am shocked by this but I also know it is true because I am one of the 75%. When I worked at the nursing home I saw it all to often. Peoples spouses would leave them once they got sick. On the other had I also saw the husbands that stuck around. I was always in awe of the ones that stayed with there spouses.

It makes me sad that people are so shallow that they leave when things are going as they hoped. It hurts me because I was 100% honest with my husband before we got married and once he finally saw that I was sick he left a few months later. I would never leave someone because they are sick. I know there are a few good men out there who leave but more than not they walk away.

The reason I am not dating is because I don’t want to deal with another person getting scared and walking away. Since the MS is basically invisible well at least right now it is people can’t understand that I am sick. Once they do finally see that I am sick they leave because they “can’t” deal with it. I just irritates me that so many people are scared by something that affects me but I can’t change that about people. I know this post is all over the place but it was hard for me to organize my thoughts on this post.

Pet Peeves

4 Jan
Written By

Today I am going to make a list of some of my pet peeves. I am sure I will forget some of them so this will be updated at some point. I got this topic from Kludgy Mom’s Idea Bank.

  • Hearing people chew their food. I have to get up and leave the room if someone is chewing loudly because it is like nails on a chalk board to me.
  • People coming up to my desk and just staring at me and not saying anything at all.
  • People that keep stealing stuff even though they know I know!
  • When my brother and grandma start to argue in the middle of the night and wake me up when I have to get up and go to work in the morning.
  • Getting woken up by someone
  • Drivers that don’t speed up on the on ramp to the freeway so that it is harder to merge into traffic.
  • When people call at work and don’t know who they want and they expect me to be able to read their mind and know who they need
  • People eating my food. If someone has a bite of my food I won’t eat the rest of it.
  • Bullying of any kind.
  • People who sneeze so loud that it sounds like they are yelling.
  • People who have office close to each other but instead of going to one of the offices they just yell back and forth to each other.
  • Drama

Those are all that I can think of right now but I am sure I will come up with more. What are your pet peeves?

Cattiness In Women

3 Jan
Written By

Women GossipingI have been looking for places to get topics to blog about and I recently found this site that has tons of different topics to write about. I chose: Talk about cattiness in women. I chose this one because I work in a building full of men and I wouldn’t have it any other way. Now don’t get me wrong the men I work with drive me crazy to say the least but the don’t have all the drama that women have. The guys still have their days but for the most part they are 100 times better than women are to work with.

When I saw this topic the first thing that popped into my head was beauty salons. Some of you may know that I get my nails done so that means I spend a lot of time in a salon. Let me just saw that the lady I go to now doesn’t have hardly any drama but all the other people I have seen always have drama. There is always someone talking about someone else. I can’t figure out why women talk about each other. I can’t stand listening to all the gossip that goes on at salons or with women in general.

Growing up I didn’t have hardly any girlfriends because I would get so tired of the drama and women will turn on people in a heart beat. I also didn’t attend church once I got into high school because of all the drama that got carried over from school. I have never been the person to talk about others and I also have never understood why women are always talking about each other. If I had to guess at a reason I would guess it was women are always so jealous of each other. We are always seem to be judging each other. I think women need to build each other up and not knock each other down. I know if women stopped talking about each other that more women would be okay with themselves and not depressed.

I am sure this post rambled on but it is how the thoughts came to me!

What A Year

2 Jan
Written By

What a year it has been to say the least. I never could have guessed what this past year had in store and if someone would have to me what was going to happen I wouldn’t have believed them. I am still trying to get my head around some of the thins that have happened the last 6 months. Who could have guessed that they were going to let Misti go and that I would be the last female in the building. Who knew that Misti was going to get pregnant. I never could have guessed that Melissa would take her life and not be around this year. It has been such and up and down year for me to say the least.

I have grown a lot over the past year and I feel like I have finally figured out what I want and where I am going. I can say that I am finally happy to be alone. I always thought that I was happy being alone but now I truly am happy. I don’t mine being alone and not being around people all the time. I know part of it is because I am so busy all the time and don’t have time for much else anymore. I also now know that I don’t need or want a man in my life. I just realized that I don’t want to deal with the drama that men bring to the table. Now that being said if I were to find someone that isn’t into the drama then I may give it a shot but I am in no way looking for it.

I also can’t believe how far I came with my designs and how much I learned over the past year. I am also so happy that I finally got my design site up and going and I hope that this year I can start making money so that I pay my doctor bills off instead of just making payments. As it is now I am going to be paying doctor bills forever because I never have the money to pay them off.

I hope that 2012 will be a great year as well! I hope everyone has a great year as well!
