The truth shall set you free

A friend of mine who still apparently reads my blog commented that he'd figured out, a quiet Barbie girl = a happy Barbie girl. And it's the truth.

I've found a happiness, contentment and peace with my life that I had forgotten was possible. Or didn't know was possible.  Quite frankly, I don't think I have ever been so at peace with life ever.  And it's not about having someone, though I know he plays a part in this, it's about for the first time maybe ever, me truly loving who I am.  Accepting life and ready to face anything thrown my way.  Not allowing myself to dwell on what could happen but to embrace and love the now.  To live life for what is happening today.  And let me tell you, it works.

The last three years have been one hell of a roller coaster ride.  A ride at times, I didn't handle very well.  But I wouldn't go back and change a thing.  It's all led me to today.  To where I am.  To my peace.  To my happiness.  It's made me realize, things aren't, always going to be rosy.  There are going to be twists and turns, but I'm better prepared to handle them. Because at the end of the day all that matters is that I have a roof over my head, food to eat and people who love me unconditionally.  What more could I ask for?

BG: New and Improved

 Barbie girl here. It's been a while huh? Since I last posted in October, 2021 a lot has changed. My father passed away. I've gotten my heart broken, again. I had major surgery and lost over 100 pounds. I've had some really hard, honest, raw conversations with myself. Grew closer with my family. Grew closer with my children. Learned to love myself once and for all. The Grief Papa Barbie passed away in February, 2022.  It was the single, most difficult thing I have ever faced. He was my hero. The one who taught me to love baseball. The one who taught me how to do things. The one who taught me to drive on back roads of Wayne County.  It was somewhat unexpected, but he had been battling health issues for some time. He was home, in his favorite chair, just exactly where he would have wanted to be.  We suspected it was closing in on us because he started talking to family members who had passed in the months leading up to his death. My family and my sister's family had be...

Time flies when you're having fun.

Heck, I don't even know if anyone still reads my madness or not.  But here I am, posting again.   Let's see, since my last post Barbie Jr has officially become a teenager and Barbie Girl is a mother yet again.   A teenager and a newborn, should be interesting.   I've been off work several months due to pregnancy related health issues and just hope to have a job to return to.  As scary as becoming a mother again was, it has all come back to me.  My whole world is officially complete.  My life is better than I ever could have imagined.  I've come a long way. A really long way.
