2024


 Here we are... Happy New Year!! So, what are your resolutions and goals for 2024? Ill tell you mine... none. Ive been wondering what is wrong with me so I googled "What does it mean if you have no goals or dreams" Diagnosis...lacking motivation and unambitious. Interesting. I get up every day and work 12-16 hours a day usually 7 days a week to keep things going yet I have lack of motivation and unambitious. Hmmm. Another diagnosis was lack of purpose, ok I might get on board with that one. I have been asking God my whole life what my purpose is and why am I here. I have felt the answer a few times and things seem to explode while I was doing it. So, that cant be right. I get doors close and and another one opens but how many have to shut before you figure out what your supposed to do with your life? Whats the purpose in finding it right before your life ends...why cant we spend our whole lives doing our purpose our mission before final resting and the words "good job my good and faithful servant". Its messy to go through life not knowing who you are or why your here and maybe things would be better off without you its not like your contributing anything anyway. At one point I wanted to be a dr so I could cure cancer, but I became a drug addict then mother so life took a different turn. Another time when I had my restaurant, I thought I could feed the hungry and solve world hunger...maybe be the best Martha Stewert and homeschool my kids while feeding the world and becoming the best chef. At one point do mission work all over the world I thought I could be in ministry fulfilling my purpose of feeding the world, caring for the world with my dr role I never achieved then maybe build everyone a house so they never slept outside again. I could put on concerts and give people hope through Gods music but then again Im stage fright and cant sing so theres that. I could be a HGTV star and inspire people on a budget on how to make things better and brighter in the homes they have, but then my husband told me everything I did was copied and my dad says everything I do is stupid and nobody likes what I like so theres that. Maybe I could be a writer and help people with motivation and life, oh wait my life is a trainwreck so probably need to find a new idea. Definitely not love, marriage or raising kids, we all know how that turned out. LOL.  Another google answer suggest a lack of exposure to different opportunities....Im pretty sure Im one of the luckiest people on this planet when it comes to this. I have traveled all over the world learning culture and life, I really dont feel like Im lacking in any experiences but maybe I am and just dont know it. Another suggestion is lack of support from family or society....ok now we are getting somewhere. Thanks google for diagnosing my issues and believe me I am not typing this with a straight face for writing that. I am laughing so hard Im losing where I was going with all of this. It is possible Ive been shut down so many times on ideas and dreams and goals of things I thought would be amazing that I shut down my internal factory. I have lost me somewhere along the way and became a robot to whatever my family thought I needed to be. I cant say the results have been good. Im exhausted in every way and just beat down to a point that Im not sure getting back up is worth fighting for. I have everything right so why waste time being unfulfilled and have purpose when I can just check tasks off my list for someone elses agenda to keep the peace. Where is my voice? What is my purpose? What happened to me and how do I get myself back? I guess only google knows, but Ill have to save that therapy for another day because a tile job is waiting on me and people need to move in. Always waiting on me...must be my lack of motivation. What are your goals and dreams? I would love to hear them...

Tis the season

 Here we are again...another year has passed and Im in my normal buhumbug Christmas attitude with declining spirit as the years go by. Its really my same gripe and complaint every year of the expectation and greed that has taken over the idea of a gift. I dont mean to bring others down with me, but it seems my husband is losing his spirit as well. Our house has been known for its lights and light show but this year no lights, no decorations and its the 18th of December. My kids are grown.. well I say that, but really the baby has been jipped. Hes 16 so never here, but we always did the Christmas stuff because we had kids to make it special for. Everyone around us thinks we have it all together...does facebook do that to people? I feel like Ive always been raw and real which is not always to my advantage when your bi polar like me things just come out. The truth is, I just dont have any Christmas in me anymore. I see everyone else getting together and making cookies and candies, visitin

A Screw Loose

 Monday I had a post planned on how great it felt to have sunshine in February and after watching JLOs new documentary how normal I felt to feel like everything is going to fall apart and everyone is watching. It was a raw look at my life through her eyes and it just felt so real that someone with her talent and creative skills has the thoughts I do everyday about my work, life and family. In the end we just want to be a good parent and have amazing children that weve given everything weve got and sometimes more to. I felt so normal and begin wondering if there is really such a thing as bi polar or depression or if were just adjusting to different life steps in our journey. Maybe everyone goes through the same thoughts and feelings but perhaps handles them differently. Maybe I don't have mental issues and I just needed reassurance or a different outlook. A few tears were shed and I called it a night. By Tuesday I was ok, felt heavy and my head was foggy but nothing was wrong, I was
