Holding back the tears



Recommended Posts

* I hate when the past is mention with untruth to it.

* I hate being put down

I'm being strong & maybe stronger then ever. Hubby today said I was bad luck since he left a sign he needed made in a hardware store. I was home decided to take the kids to McDonald for a snack before the park. Hubby was outside approach kids & I said maybe you shouldn't touch them they might give you bad luck. He walked away. Time passes...

I was minding my business in the kitchen. All the sudden I honestly don't know what happen that he went off on me. Saying his mother picked me off the streets. I was never on the streets. I was a working teenager & I was in school. I was looking for a room to rent & I went to live in a room I rented. I wasn't living there for free. If this woman decided to feed me I'm going to eat. If she decided to reach me how to cook or the basic or have a conversation yeah I was going to talk to her. I lived in her house. She was wonderful to me. That's how I met my now hubby threw her. She figure I was a good woman for him even though I was a teenager. So him saying she got me off the streets it's false. He starts bashing my nationality. I'm pure Dominicana he is Puerto Rican. I told him if he had issues with me why did he get together with me. We started arguing.

I know the up set part of me is talking right now but I think after I'm fix it won't take to long & maybe leaving with my teenager by the time she is 18. We won't need to suffer so much.

Maybe my bills will be paid by then.

Maybe I won't have money.

Maybe I won't have a place to live.

I will have peace love happiness and that's what I need. I will work out my bills & such as it comes.

Yes I'm at the end of my rope,but rent isn't cheap so I will have my surgery,and save money until the day I move out. I was searching,and looking around,and did find some places. I'm going to check out one of the places,and it's not housing,but they charge you rent according to your income. I'm not moving yet,but looking,and searching makes me feel like I'm in control,and I'm able to move on with my life. Until I don't go out there to look with my eyes how would I know where I might be moving to. It's in an area I have no idea but there is a huge park in front. I want to go in the day time,and at night time when the action begins so if there is drug dealing or funny business going on I'm not going there again that's why I don't want to leave this place. Morning day or night and we have camera on the property. Nothing ever happens here that's why I feel safe but whatever. I will search till I find the perfect place.

Money can't buy happiness. Keep your head high and reconsider the timing of moving out for you and your kids.

Surgery date 7/25/12

So true.... With my daughter being 18 she is able to hold down any job,and she can be added to a lease so it's better for me to wait just a little bit. Plus in the time I find a place,and god knows wait for section 8 to open I'm going to come up with rent money,and mind you I don't work. Waiting on SSD so I need every penny I can find,and get. Waiting 2 years it's better then waiting 4 years.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
