Happy New year!

Once again it's been a while...

I hope everyone is having a great start to the new year.

Mine has been a little bumpy but not too bad. The last few months of 2016 weren't so good which is why I didn't have time to blog.

I do have some plans for this year and where I would like my blog to go. So bear with me as try and figure things out.

Until next time, God bless you!

When it rains it pours..

July was a long and hurtful month.  Our family was betrayed and hurt by family and people we thought we knew.
This kind of hurt left me no choice but to remove these people from my life.  They have been forgiven (not an easy thing to do) but it's for my sanity. I just don't need them in my life anymore.

If that wasn't bad enough my brother tells me he no longer wants to live.  That  shattered my heart,  my baby brother feels he has no purpose in life.  Growing up was difficult for us,  so much ugliness was instilled in us.  Some of us have been able to recover while others are so broken.  I've always done what I could to help and encourage my family.  I've come to learn that they have to make the choice, the choice to let go and move on.  My prayer and hope is that my brothers can find away to brake the chains that keep them slaved to so much anger,  bitterness, resentment, and addiction.

There is hope for those who are hurting,  that hope is JESUS!

My it's been a while!

Hey everyone!

Boy have I been through some stuff, Thankfully I'm on the road to recovery.

For the past 8 years I've had various health issue, first my thyroid went down and the weight came up. Then sleep apnea, from there worse migraines, them came depression and I felt like I was going to lose it. Just recently became diabetic, I've lost about 60%of my hair and I feel like it's never going to end. For good news, my thyroid went back to normal and I've lost 30lbs! I'm so excited, I have been able to bring my sugar down and follow my new diet. I have bad days but I'm able to handle them better. I'm so thankful for crochet, crocheting really helps me cope with my depression.
I haven't been crocheting because on top of everything, I had no strength, constantly tired.

It's not OK to cry?!

These last  couple  of days have been really hard for me. I am a stay at home wife and mother, on top of taking care of our home, I homeschool our son.
I'm home all the time! I don't drive so most the time we stay indoors, and after 7 years these last couple days I felt like I've lost it. I'm tired, exhausted, and burnt out.
Before I had my son I worked outside of the house, (I've always worked). I'm used to moving and going like the energizer bunny. Being home makes feel lazy. I'm not consistent with cleaning something I loved doing, the same goes for cooking, I just don't feel like doing anything but cry! I feel like I'm drowning, and crying is for babies.. my husband tells me It's OK to cry, it helps filter what I have stored up inside.
My husband is very understanding and helps a lot, I'm very blessed to have him. Our son is a wonderful kid, not prefect but a good little man.
I struggle with some health issues which I think plays a big part in how I feel. Through it all even my little boy who is 7 helps me a lot. He enjoys washing dishes, vacuuming, dusting, laundry, cooking, and taking care of the family dog.
I've picked up crocheting it's comforting and a stress reliever. I never thought I'd be crocheting, I worked so much I never thought I'd be crafty. I also enjoy scrapbooking and photography. I thank God for being by my side.
I believe in God Almighty and I believe he'll see me though this.

Yuck, leeches!

Don't you hate being around people you dislike? They try so hard to be a part of your life and you want nothing to do with them. Why can't people just leave you alone they know you don't like them, you want nothing to do with them, you don't care to have a relationship with them and yet there they are. I guess the hardest part is they'll be around because they are related to people your related to.
If she would just stay away when there's gatherings, I would be so happy. Another thing I can't stand is this person being brought to my house, why would anyone think she's welcomed in my home! Next time I won't be nice about it, I didn't personally invite her, DON'T BRING HER OVER!
I love people, I just can't stand fake annoying leeches.
OK, I feel better...

Is this your child?!

Do you have people in your life that like to impose their believe on how one should raise there child / children?

I have a few of those and it drives me crazy! 
I have people telling me what my son should eat, how to feed him or my favorite, "Oh you let your kid have that?" My son is 7, if he's survive this long I'm doing something right. I don't ever mind someone suggesting something or giving me their opinions that's all fine and dandy but at the end of the day, I am the mother and I make the final decision. 
I specially love it when it comes to discipline. 
I have no problem with disciplining my child. I am stern, I can be militant but all done with compassion. If I need to spank I will. You don't like the way I discipline, don't worry it's none of your business. 
My thought on this is, if you're parent of the year I'd like to know why your child is the one with weight issues, health problems, and doesn't listen or obey anything you tell him/her?! 
When you have it all perfect, then come to me until then keep your nonsense to yourself. 

1. If I wanted your opinion I would asked for it. 
2. There's nothing wrong with giving your opinion but let it be just your opinion.
3. He's my child not yours!
