On to the next one?

I made the decision that I wanted to come back to blogging. However, I honestly think that I'm going to have to leave this blog and start a new one. Which is very sad, but at this point I'm so sick of all the drama and games. 

After my last post I received a very immature and disturbing Facebook message from a family member of my ex. Asking why I didn't disclose other information about things I did. The allegations that were listed in this Facebook message makes me completely understand why I'm getting prank calls almost daily and why friends and family members of my ex keep contacting me. 

Sometimes when people are wrong, they place blame on anyone they can. And I guess when that same person lies a lot, they'll never admit to false statements. Yes, I have a lot of proof, including voice recordings, that would make these people think twice about what they were told. However, I'm not looking to play dirty. I'm actually not looking to play at all.

The games that these people are playing are absolutely pathetic. I'm very grateful that I'm out of that situation. It has made me realize that it wasn't just the past two months that I was lied to and used... it was the entire relationship. Realizing that has made it so much easier for me to be happy.

There was not a single thing I could of done to prevent the cheating, the bullying and everything else. Not having the house completely spotless when he came home early, not finishing folding the clothes before he noticed, not properly hanging my towel, and not knowing that I should of had his oil changed in his car had absolutely nothing to do with it. It was just another excuse to yell at me and make me the bad person.

I'm so sick of dealing with all of this. I don't want to start over with a new blog, but I'm not okay with certain people reading it. 

I appreciate all of you that have e-mailed me about this situation. Your support has been exactly what I needed in order to deal with all of the pathetic drama. I'm at a really great point in my life. I'm feeling more positive than ever and currently in the process of making a wonderful life change. I'm so excited for what the future holds.

  1. Mandy!! I'm so sorry about everything going on. I understand your need to go private and although I don't know you personally I have enjoyed reading over the years. I would love to continue to have that opportunity but if not, I get it. Good luck with everything in life. You absolutely deserve to be happy.

  2. Mandy-- I'm sorry you're going thru all this. I will definitely keep you in my prayers. I have thought about starting another blog too since I've gotten sober. I feel like all the entries on this blog are complete lies and they remind me not only of the darkness of my addiction but also how I was in such denial about what was really going on. I hope you will send me the link to your new blog if that's what you decide to do. I love reading your blog because you are honest and it's nice to read a blog that doesn't just talk about the good things in life but also the struggles. Hang in there girl. Love ya.

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...

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 ...

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...
