Assesment

I used to post on here about once a month a few years ago. And due to certain circumstances in my life I chose to stop... and deleted all my posts, another example of how I let others influence my decisions.
I really have no intention of beginning again as those who know me and love me will be informed & know all the important stuff.
But it does amaze me sometimes that in all my 38 years there is one constant I can count on, and that is people can't be counted on...
So I am thankful for those that are not fairweather friends. The people in my life who truly care. I have ejected those that only think "what has so and so done for me?" And claimed to be someone they are not. 
I've learned some lessons and discovered some things about myself and a few people I thought I knew and loved. My eyes are clear and I see things for what they are. 
And I'm glad I finally have closure and have resolved certain ghosts of the past.
And Iam thankful for the unexpected gifts that have popped up in my life in the last year. I hope you know who you are. <3 
  
Another chapter in my book of life. I bought my first house. Quite the fixer upper, and many things to consider for the future. My eldest daughter will be 18 in June. A senior and learning to manage her own money. And my baby girl will be sweet sixteen in August. Well I don't know about the sweet part! My miracle boy will be 2 in Sept and his brother to be born the same month! So my brood is complete.
My door is always open to my family and true friends. You know where I live, and there is no pretentiousness (sp?) here. My house is a mess, my kids are wild, and I'm happy with that. So those that are vain and materialistic and want to judge, don't bother... There is dust and clutter, toys and crumbs on the floor, and tons of laundry to be done. There will be time enough later to clean. I know whats important! Do you?
