About Me

Hi, my name is Michelle. I'm a single mother to Andrew (10) and Ashelyn (6). I completed college in December of 2007 obtaining a degree in Chemical Dependency Counseling. I'm currently in a very new relationship with a wonderful man. My goal is to go back to college and earn my Bachelor's in Social Work; possibly my Master's. I would also love to get my CASAC (credentialed Alcoholism and Substance Abuse Counselor) someday. I'm discovering a new happiness in my life and the only thing I'm waiting for is to find a job so I can continue my career. I love my field of work and enjoy every minute of it. The rest you can find on my "complete profile". Any questions, feel free to ask :-)

I'm feeling...

THANKFUL THURSDAY!








I am thankful that the kids are back in school-however, I am not thankful that summer is coming to an end!

I am thankful for my wonderful boyfriend who has built a bedroom for my son in less than a week-LITERALLY built the room, sheetrock and all...and also thankful for the bunk beds he built for my daughter and his daughter.

I am thankful to be moving soon! I can't wait to get out of this dreadful city!

I am thankful for the roof over my head, the food in mine and my kids bellies...

I am thankful for the past that has led me right to where I am today-not that all of the past has been beautiful, but it has all made me who I am today and I am a happy person for once!

Exhausted

I guess it's been a while since I've posted. I haven't had computer access except to go to the library. I'm busy packing, getting ready to move in with the boyfriend and his 6 year old daughter. I stay there everynight now and I'm completely exhausted. My boyfriend works long hours...he leaves at 7am and sometimes doesn't get back until almost 10pm so I have to take care of all three kids myself and get them fed, bathed, ready for bed, and ready for school. I kinda still feel like a single parent. I still have my kids in our school district because I haven't legally moved in yet. That wiill happen sometime between October and December. I can't wait becayuse this getting up at 5:45am to get his daughter ready for school and back home by 7am to get Andrew on his bus is already taking it's toll on me. Once I move in, all three kids will ride the same bus because K-12 is all on one campus since it's such a small town.

HELP!!

Anyone know how to get the smell of dog out of your car...and the house too????? My boyfriend agreed to dog sit for 5 days and now everything smells like dog. Sorry to all you dog lovers out there, but I'm just not a big fan. I have tried febreze. I have vacuumed after laying baking soda down. I have used antibacterial spray...NOTHING HAS WORKED and everything still stinks. It's disgusting!

THANKFUL THURSDAY!








I am thankful that my children are finally able to get to the dentist!

I am thankful that *I* am finally able to get to the dentist!

I am thankful for the break I got last Saturday at Countryfest. Just me and the boyfriend, NO KIDS!!!!

I am thankful for my boyfriend!

I am thankful to finally have a man that wants me in his life and sees me in his future!

I am thankful that I have my step mother to rely on since my mother just pubically anounced on facebook that I can "find another mother"

I am thankful that I am not with a controlling man, as my mother is. He shouted out the window at me calling me a "nutcase". I am thankful that I do not have to deal with such a controlling person on a daily basis!

I'm not lazy...well, sometimes...

I'm not lazy, I swear. I've just been at my boyfriend's house everynight and he's 40 minutes away so I have no internet access when I'm there. Anyway, I'm excited about Countryfest tomorrow. Time ALONE with the boyfriend and the best part-NO KIDS. I finally get a break! They fight like cats and dogs and it's beginning to drive me crazy. I know there will be other kids there and I'm going to do my best to not let them annoy me, but I'm not a fan of misbehaved OPK's...or their parents! Yes, yes, I ALWAYS have something to bitch about. That's me.
