I can't think of a title.

I've explained on here that I'm just dealing with things that are really hard for me right now. I didn't want to make two posts in a row about being upset. But, I watched this video by Jenna Marbles and I cried because it was sad but at the same time so positive.



If you follow me on twitter you probably think I'm a hot mess. I've received so many tweets, direct messages, e-mails and comments from people who have been concerned if I'm okay. I've said to almost everyone, "I'm always okay".. because, honestly I know what I've gone through in life so far and I've always made it through. I'm very strong and I just have to keep reminding myself of that.

I'm very good at putting a smile on and not letting people see me cry or get upset. Yes, I've used twitter to express myself.. but, most people I'm around in person don't even realize anything is wrong. I was talking to one of the regulars at work and mentioned that I need to start working out again as a stress relief and he told me that I hide negative emotions so well because I never seem like I'm stressed or upset, I always seem happy.

Some people when they're upset they eat way more than usual and some people can't eat at all. I'm one of those people who can't eat if I'm really upset. I've lost weight within the past few days and I just feel weak physically. Sunday-Wednesday I probably consumed not even the normal amount of calories I'd consume in a typical day.

I went out for happy hour on Wednesday thinking that I'd have a few drinks, relax and not stress about things. But, not eating and drinking craft beers was not a good mix. I ended up getting so wasted off of 2 beers and a shot. I turned into a crazy, crazy girl. Not the good kind of crazy. I got into a huge fight with my parents over nothing. Then I finally broke down and admitted that I wasn't okay.

I woke up on Thursday morning and felt awful for allowing myself to be so weak. When I'm really upset, I shut myself off to anyone that's trying to be there for me. It's like I don't want to be alone, but I almost feel the need to be alone. I have to make plans just so I can force myself to get out and have fun.

As I said I didn't want to post about this again. It just happened.

Last night LBZ showed me this video and it instantly put a smile on my face.



I hope you all have a wonderful weekend. I'm going to work on some posts so you don't have to read more lame posts from me. Thanks for sticking around!

Now or never... (QUICK UPDATE)

I wasn't lying when I said that I wanted to get back into blogging. However, life took multiple turns and I've been too busy to sit down at my computer and produce a decent blog post. It can't hurt to fill in anyone that still reads my blogs, but might not closely follow me on social media. After TWO years of being single and not being into the idea of dating anyone, I'm actually in a relationship. I know at the beginning of a relationship it's expected to be in the state that you feel like you've never been happier. The difference is, I've known my boyfriend for 11 years. When we were young, we'd always act like a couple. We never had a "title" back then no matter how many times we reconnected. Seven months ago, he finally moved back home. I was so excited to have him back in my life. Then I realized that I wasn't okay with just being his friend. After about 5 months of blowing him off and him giving up trying to hang out, I finally ex...

Sleepy Momma

I did plan on posting this previous week and the week before.. however, I've been so incredibly exhausted and busy. I guess that's a great way of putting, welcome to mom life! To be completely honest, I'm so happy with where I'm at in life right now. Yes, there are things that are difficult to deal with and I know some of those things will always be hard. For a while I wished that I could go back well over a year ago and made a different decision. I don't wish that now because I've grown so much and gained things I could never give up. My strength, my motivation and my happiness is at an all time high. It feels amazing. In other news...  I finally got a kitten! She's such a sassy girl, but she can be the most loving thing at times! When she wakes up and I'm next to her or when I pick her up, she grabs my cheeks and kisses me.  The bottom left photo is a result of a playful kitty that needs her nails trimmed. If you foll...

Thoughts from an ex-blogger..

My desire to get back to writing has been so strong lately. I can't seem to figure out if I want to blog again. At the same time, I REALLY want to blog again. I've found comfort in my privacy. This comfort has made me uncomfortable with openly sharing details of my life. However, blogging always was there to provide me with an outlet to express my thoughts, feelings and emotions. The people I was able to connect with through blogging was always an incredible bonus. I didn't want to blog when I realized that people that I don't want to be part of my life were reading my blog posts. During this time I also stopped being active on Twitter and Instagram. I felt that it was unfair to me that specific people were able to catch up on my life via social media. There are many issue I face with returning to my blog. I need to allow myself to step outside of my comfort zone of keeping my life private. I need to be okay with the fact that some people, that shouldn't be ...
