Happy New Year!!

I am truly amazed at how fast 2015 eased on out of here! It seems like six months ago we were saying, New Year, New Me. I'm just amazed at how I survived 2015!
With the normal aches and pains I was doing pretty good, Then in April I had a "Man down " situation!
I remember Staying up on a Wednesday night til 4a.m. I was cleaning, going through sweats and chills. Something kept saying don't stop moving. Later that day I went to a funeral with a friend and I kept it moving. By Saturday I was hurting like a son of a gun! Went to hospital got a test done and went home. The next day went back to the doctor and had emergency surgery that night!
Doctor came in to tell me I was lucky to be alive. My appendix had exploded. He told me it had to be at least a week because of how they had to fish it out. Im amazed at how all my doctors tell me they have never seen a case like mine.
Two days later I was undergoing another surgery. This one was to remove my spinal shunt. Seems like infection was headed straight to it. I say my appendix rupturing saved my life and brought awareness to what's really going on with me.
Once the shunt was taken out, the doctor discovered the previous surgeon had stuffed it in and it was putting pressure on my sciatic nerve. I went home that Thursday and was back in surgery that Saturday! Spinal fluid leakage, go figure!
Once on the road to recovery,my back split open and I had a whole in my back for eight weeks! I under went a colonoscopy on a Tuesday then bone fusion surgery that Thursday.
When I say GOD has me, I mean it!!!
           
When 2016 came, I was sleep. I got my first kiss of the New Year and rolled over ,lol. I decided
this year instead of publicly announcing my New Years Resolutions, I've decided to do silent resolutions.No one needs to know all the things you want to change. Who needs that pressure!

I look forward to just being at peace and watch my children grow into their own. Yesterday I got some bad news from the doctor, but I had prepared myself and I know God got me! My other half feels I shouldn't tell the kids yet, Im not good at keeping things from them so ,it's difficult. I just know God can do anything but fail!.

Pieces of Me

Once of my favorite songs is Ledisi's "Pieces of Me". That song describes me to the T! It says so much about how I feel on a daily basis. I have learned how to cover my true feelings for the sake of others, and  I am a master at laughing to keep from crying.  I have a bad habit of compromising my own happiness for the sake of others. It's funny how I can be strong for everyone else but me. I'm too busy worried about hurting someone's feelings. I realize now I can't really help that because these things were instilled in me at a very young age. When someone said "aww she's so pretty", my aunt would say "no she aint"! Although I love her to the depths of my soul, she was mean as hell to me growing up. I will share that another day. Today I'm just preparing you for what's to come. My life was like the Color Purple, "You bet not tell nobody but God". To endure all the things that were inflicted upon me was like

Ms. Men O. Pause, have several seats please!

I want a refund on all the free classes that gave out sub par information! If I tell you something, I am going to give you all the facts, good and bad!Remember in elementary school, 5th grade, they separated the girls and boys and had, "the talk". I was told that I would bleed once a month for a few days. That was lie number one! I bled for seven days!!! I was told that once I received this "gift", I should expect it every month until I'm in my fifties!!! WAIT WHAT?!?!?!?! Well first of all, Aunt Flo showed up one month before my thirteenth birthday. I was the last one in my group,lol. I got it and then I didn't get it.I had what was called a irregular period until I had my first child. The nicest thing I can say about my Auntie Flo is she was not painful. I couldn't wear white or go horseback riding like the commercial state, but I never had cramps. Well after years of rebellion  I finally Auntie Flo under control. Well she decided to buck the system

Farewell and Hello..........

                                      I just looked at the date and realized I should have launched this blog yesterday. November 19 has held some memorable events for me. At age 9 I was baptized, age 13 I got saved, age 19 I tried again. Although those are all very memorable moments, the biggest was at 12 when I "official" became a woman. Who knew that "special" friend would change the way you looked and felt at least 5 days out of the month! Today as I type my first page I am adding two new memories to my life. The first is being able to break the chains that have consumed me over the years. I have sat back in silence struggling with pain,disappointment and agony. I've been asked over and over again, when are you going to write that book. Well here is the prequel to what's to come. I hope that my pain can heal and strengthen someone who needs it. This is my truth,my journey,my struggle. I just want a release...... I found strength and courage to
