How I did it
It made me
What was I thinking? 
How I did it: There really is no running away. I just ran to something else. I had a little money and a suitcase. I landed in rural Virginia and got a job. It was what it was. I'm so settled into my life these days. I thought I wanted to run from it...however, I only wanted it change. To bring some passion back into my life. Still working that...and no amount of running will fix it. Read how I did it…
It made me
Scared and thrilled 
How I did it: I was not supposed to be there. As the family was leaving (sis just wanted her, her husband and the doctor in the room), the nurse called out, asking why everyone was leaving...that she needed some assistance. I was thinking, "oh...ice chips for mommy to be?". LOL...little did I know. I had a leg and was cheering sis thru delivery. I didn't realize how wet, bloody, squishy, painful, crazy, traumatic thing birth was. Geez… Read how I did it…

He’s a crazy drug/alcoholic/manic addict crazy man. And I see the good person under all the BS. With no where to stay or go I brought him to family dinner on T-Giving Day. My family loved on him, fed him. BF was awesome, had to pick him up from the hospital that morning and scrape him off to look presentable. Crazy stuff. He fell asleep on the couch as mom played the piano. Brought him home with me and he slept for 15 hours. I woke up to find him in the kitchen trying to cook me breakfast. I think that was the sweetest gesture I’ve ever seen…

I was in SD visiting family and we all went to a ceramic place and picked out pottery to paint and fire. I painted a spoon rest. Its so pretty…I should do this more often.
