22. Are you a spontaneous person or do you prefer set schedules and routines? Why?

Ahhhh....before I let my mental health take over so badly I was more spontaneous then now. I have always been someone who wants to know what they are scheduled for as far in advance as possible lol...but I was more of a get up and go type of person...before I became a prisoner of my own demons.....My ocd has gotten worse as the years go by....wanting to me to always be checking my planner and trying to know my schedule as far as possible...maybe I do it in a weird way so that it does NOT give me the chance to be as spontaneous as perhaps I may want to be. It keeps me grounded...makes me feel like "Nope can't be cool and have fun because I have s*** on the planner!!" Grr..AM I doing that....if so then damn good thing that I am already in therapy LOL

I guess I feel if I check my planner and that day or whatever if free....I am able to be more spontaneous....but then again....who the hell schedules their spontaneous times..ugh I am hopeless AND hopeless....LoL

When summer is here, I AM more spontaneous for sure....the cold, snowy and rainy weather makes me wanna crawl in a hole...the sun and brightness makes me wanna enjoy life more....is that even healthy?? Hmmmm....interesting....Perhaps this is something that maybe I should bring up to my therapist...it for sure will make for an interesting conversation LoL She will either think I am even MORE insane or she will see it as a good break through that I even noticed....interesting for sure!

21. For those of you who are parents, how has your life been different since you had children? Is it everything you thought it would be or very different than you imagined? How has being a parent changed you as a person? If you don't want to have children, share why you don't.

I became a parent one month after I turned 19...Then 3 years later came along my son...then another 3 years later came my last daughter....who was my miracle child.

Parenting changed me in sooooo many ways....I have tried my best to be a good mom....my kids have learned that I have physical and mental health issues and they have adapted to them....as I have adapted to having 2 children with medical problems.....

Having children has changed me in ways I never knew possible...I learned that you CAN love 3 kids all the same and have enough room in your heart for them all. I have learned that nobody is a perfect mother and we all make mistakes...I have learned that I still have a lot to learn...

My children..I have raised to be independent and to stand for what they believe in NO matter what! I have raised them to make their own decisions and to not live life for someone else...to live life for THEMSELVES!!

Being a parent is hard...no manual...no instructions...but somehow...as a parent you just KNOW what to do....being a parent has changed my life for the better so very much! And I could not imagine it any other way....ever.

20. Do you blog everyday or randomly? Do you address several things in an entry or keep each entry for a specific topic?

Well I do my Give It 100 everyday so then I guess I DO blog everyday....and you know what I love to...there are days when I can barely write that I am alive...but it still counts as trying right!!

I truly have never blogged before I came to WDC and I have found that I truly enjoy it. Especially this Welcome To My Reality blog...I can truly get lost in the prompts and find myself writing about things I never thought I would write about..it allows me the chance to look deep within myself to find, seek and search for the answers....sometimes I have no answers....and sometimes I am amazed at what comes out...

Some of these prompts really make me think....reflect...remember....not always...but a lot of the time....I simply love doing these prompts. This is my fav blog to do!

I feel that when I answer these prompts, they are not only getting out onto "paper" but they are stirring up things inside myself that I thought was lost years ago...Maybe somewhere deep down inside I can find my inner child that I feel is lost forever....to scared and sheltered to ever come out....the child that was made to grow up at 10yrs old.....

I could go on and on but my point is....blogging is a release for me and that is something I so badly need! Soooooo badly

19. Do you dance or tap your feet to songs or do you just quietly listen?

Ahhhh....music can calm me or make me want to dance....depends on my mood...if I like the beat I am for sure a foot tapper...I have been known to break into random dance at ANY time...lol when the mood strikes it just strikes lol....music can make me feel differently depending on my mood and the music...there are certain songs that come on that make me wanna dance...when my body allows it lol

I find myself doing the most dancing and foot beating when I am driving...it helps my road rage lol I can jam the music...sing along sooooo out of tune that I am sure birds hearing me are covering their ears lol....I love it when the weather is warm...windows down and music up...getting lost in my own world...the words to the music soothing and lulling me into another world where all is well and problems are solved in minutes...with just the right words...


If I did not have chronic pain I would dance more often...much to the dismay of my children....haha

Music soothes the soul...it makes us tap our feet...some make us listen quietly and reflect on life...some make us happy and some make us sad....music is a way to get lost within your feelings...sometimes the words in a song are just exactly what you need to hear at that time!!

I saw let your freak flag fly...dance when you want to...laugh always.live life and love forever....go with the flow...it may be just what you never knew you needed~

18. What is the favorite part of your body?

Ugh...I hate having to pick out a favorite body part....BUT...I would have to say my lips and my eyes....

My eyes change from baby blue to deep dark blu depending on what I am wearing and what my mood is...they are kind of like my own version of a mood ring Bahaha

My lips...well in school I was made fun of for my lips being so full and plump....now those same bitches from high school are botoxing their lips to get what I got naturally....ha ha....shouldn't have made fun of me then I guess huh....

I feel like when I do my hair and my make up that my lips and my eyes POP really well...sadly though I never feel the need or opportunity to be able to do that very often....Steve working 2nds makes it a little hard to spend a lot of time with each other and the hours we DO get to se each other are just not the best...I wish I feel better about myself and WANTED to do my hair and make up more....maybe someday I will get there!

The fact that I was actually able to point out and talk about 2 different body parts that I found positive things about was a HUGE step for me...

I am growing...I am learning...I am spreading my wings slowly....That is what counts right!

17. Have you ever had a surgery? How many have you had and what were they for?

Oh my....YES I have had a surgery...probably about 25 or more surgical procedures in all....I have not the best of health I guess you could say Lol

I would say the most major ones were things like: 2 left knee surgeries...carpel tunnel on both hands...c-section....tubal...total hysterectomy....several scar adhesion removal surgeries in my abdomen...gallbladder removal that caused a internal bile leakage that about killed me...appendix...tumor removed from thigh....and so many other surgeries and procedures that it is just to crazy to list....My health took a bad turn in 2002 and I had 8 emergency surgeries done in a 24 week time frame, while I was pregnant with my last....they didn't even find out I was pregnant till the 4th one...and they just of course all swear that none of the surgeries or problems that I was having during that time caused my youngest to have the problems that she has....yea right...

I still have s***ty health....for an almost 38 year old..I have the health of someone who is 50 plus years older then me...Hell my fiance is 56 and in way better health then me! It is horrible and I hate it....I am just like my dad...he had s***ty health his whole life to and I am just following right behind him.....which is scary as hell to me!! I watched him go through hell and back over the years and it worries me that I am headed for same destiny....

That is why I am trying to slowly better myself in several ways....physically and mentally...I am taking it step by step...but at least it is steps forward!

16. What profession did you aspire to enter as a child? Did you succeed?

Honestly, I have been writing off and on since I was at least 9 years old....I have always wanted to be a writer...and now at almost 38 years old I am finally starting to follow my dreams of doing that...The thought that maybe if I can get my books written, it can help someone else out there...is a huge goal of mine. I want people to be able to relate and know they are not alone...I want people to be excited for my NEXT book to come out because they just can't stop reading my work....I want to be able to share my experiences that I have gone through and be able to connect with my readers, and help them.

I do not know if I will ever be a famous author...but I do know that trying and working at it, is the only way I will ever find out. I am making this the year that I at least get started on my books....I have a LOT of information to gather and then piece back together...research and so much work to do...but I truly believe that no matter what happens, I have to try. Because I do not want to be sitting here in 30 years saying that I wish I would have at least tried....never know what you can do till you try. So even if I write my books and they never become a big hit, that is ok...because at least I tried! That is what is important. And no matter what...I don't think that I will ever lose the love of writing...it is in my soul!~

15. What makes you a great friend?

Ahhh....that would be a combo of things in my opinion. I have been burned badly in the past by being so naive and trusting and letting people I "thought" were my friends, hurt me by NOT being a true friend. So I have a VERY small amount of friends....besides my fiance I literally only talk to 4 people and out of those 4...2 of them are truly the closest and best of friends ever and I am so lucky.

I am loyal, honest, trustworthy....a good listener and I will give honest advice. I will do anything and everything that I can to help them out in ANY way possible in life. I will always try to cheer them up...I have a rather awesome sense of humor Ha Ha

I have been through a lot of things in my life that have shown me everything that I NEVER want to be...and a bad friend is one of them. I value and cherish my true friends...and the bond I have with them is beyond anything I have ever imagined possible.

I know that with my 2 best friends, that I can call them any time for anything and they will be there for me...and they know that they can expect the exact same from me. I am grateful and lucky for these 2 women who I am lucky enough to call my best friends....I do everything that I can to always be a good friend...and I hope that they know how much they mean to me!!

So thank you gardengirl and Patrece ~ for coming into my life and changing it for the better. Each and every day that you both are a part of my life, makes me a better person....I hope that you both know how much I value our friendships and each of you!! Love you both!!
