Rise Above This

[K4D]

Today is my birthday! Ripe old age of 33! I have had so many texts and fb messages today it makes me feel good to have such good friends.

Happy Belated Birthday. I hope it was a great one for you.

Tried some Christmas shopping today! Had the kids in tow, and it was crowded. I'm going to have to shop for them this next weekend when they're gone. SURPRISINGLY, ex gave me 350.00 to use toward their santa gifts yesterday after the basketball game. I'll have to say I was shocked. Don't know where he's getting his money from since he still doesn't have a regular job.

His gf got mad about it, of course. It was probably supposed to be for HER santa gifts! LOL She told him i would use it on my nails and hair. Haha. Ummm newsflash..I'm a grownup with a job and can pay for my own nails and hair.

Tinkerbell can get over it. He has kids. Granted she is a kid. hmm. She is a kid isn't she. Behavior would be normal then.

Wow, I was just thinking how I started reading this site a year ago, and joined a couple of months later. I remember those first horrible weeks where I would sit in my apartment crying and reading these boards.

I thought my kids and I would never be happy again. Some of you guys truly helped me muddle through those terrifying dark times. There were days and nights my kids were gone and I would just post and be SO thankful for someone to talk to, even if we were just goofing around and talking about nonsense. Finding you guys and this place was truly a gift for me!! I just wanna say I love you guys! Not gonna call you out, cuz you know who you are.

I think many feel this way. I know I did and still do. This site was a God sent. I don't know what I would have done without it. Some of the greatest and best people in the world are on this site. Thank God. And I am even more thankful for the ones that succeed and continue to help us out anyways. Those people have huge hearts to keep helping others when their M is now fixed.
