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...

Another reason to hate snow

So, about 8pm I decide to change the cat litter because I realize that I've neglected it in the past week and it really needed to be changed. I've been so tired after tx all day that I just feed the kids and we go to bed. I know that some people may think that sitting in groups all day is easy. Well, it's not. Recovery is hard work and believe it or not, emotional exhaustion can feel just like physical exhaustion, plus, I didn't get much sleep last night. So anyway, I discover that we have no litter so I decide to go out quickly to the store to get a box of cat litter, despite the snow. So, I get to the store and I know I'll be quick so we get out leaving the car running and go into the store, get what we need and come back out only to discover that I am locked out of my car. I don't even know how that is possible. That car is equipped with a special feature that does not ALLOW it to lock when it's running. Believe me, I've tried. It just won't lock when it's running if you get out of the car, even if you try to lock it yourself and shut the door, it just doesn't go and then when you put it in gear, it automatically locks itself. So, we had to walk home in this stupid snowstorm...mind you my feet are on the mend from frostbite that it's a bit over a month old. I was not happy. Then, we had to walk back. Luckily, I was able to find the remote starter. The one that I ran over the first week of January when trying to jump start my car battery. But, by some miracle, it still worked. So, we walked and we walked and we walked. I hate snow! I HATE SNOW! I HATE SNOW I HATE SNOW I HATE SNOW I HATE SNOW I F****ING HATE SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Do I hate snow? Yes. I hate it.

You should move here. We get snow, but you get more. The storm yesterday barely resulted in a dusting here!

I was okay with it until I had to walk in only a month after getting severe frostbite. Then we lost power and the smoke alarm started beeping. I'm actually considering moving, but the place I'm considering moving to has considerably more snow than we get here.
