I married the kids dad six days after my nineteenth birthday. September 11, 1993. He was three years older then me. We were engaged for a year and a half and he was a boy I had known when I was in middle school. He hit me for the first time two weeks after the wedding. We were bringing in groceries from the truck. We had this old camper shell on the back and the door thingy was broken so that it...
Introduction of new character
K.G- 40 years old, childrens father, works about twenty hours a week to pay $96 a month in back child support owing a total of $40,000. Been to jail three times and prison once. Married but does not live with his wife, weird. See’s his young daughter occasionally but always chaperoned. Seems to be doing good in life right now but that always seems to really worry me.

Having a good day. Up, showered, dressed. I got Bill’s lunch fixed and his tea and coffee ready for work. It is his long day so we won’t see him until after 8pm. Same with tomorrow and then he is off on Thursday. Kaleb has decided he would like to discuss moving to his dad’s house at Thursday’s family meeting. Of course at first I yelled and screamed and said there was...

Today was pretty good. Felt better then I have all week. Watched a movie with Bill and then took a long nap this afternoon. Kaleb finally came home from his dads at almost 9pm. Hardly thinking about that other person who was so consuming for the last week. What the hell is that all about? Not that I mind. I like where I am today a lot better then I like where I have been the last week. This has...

What a horrible week. Up and down. Crying all the time. Is this how it’s going to be every month before my period? Seriously I can’t deal with that. It has been bad. Fighting with Bill, fighting with the kids, crying ALL the time. I couldn’t get off the couch and had to make myself take a shower every other day. I called the doctor and he did give me something new for the anxiety...

Trivia (from my phone)
Talk about adding insult to injury! When witches were burned in Medieval Europe, their families were often charged for the cost of the wood.
That doesn’t seem fair.

Well, I did something stupid last night. I let someone get in my head and convince me that I needed to do something that I had already told myself I wouldn’t do. It felt good at first but now I am kicking myself. Actually, about twenty minutes after I sent the damn email I wished I knew of a way to get it back. Now I have to promise myself once again not to make contact for any reason. I...

Well, I scrubbed the kitchen down today. Inside and outsides of cupboards, drawers and oven. Cleaned all the small appliances and threw out anything we have not used in the last year. It looks good and I am exhausted. I feel like I need to keep going. Was going to mop the floor but the kids are still coming in and out. I guess I could start on the bathroom but Bill wants me to stop and relax. I...

So about nine years ago after hearing about a lady who was getting rid of her chihauhau, I decided we needed a dog. I thought it would be neat for the kids and my husband loves animals. Menji came to us already named and about two or three years old. The lady that had him raised him with cats and potty trained him to pee on plastic bags in her trailer. He wouldn’t eat any kind of dog food...

I think this is what it is to be manic. I feel high all the time. The life is awesome, I am so in love kind of high that makes me want to change my life. I feel better then I have in a couple of years, probably more like three, maybe more then that. I feel awake and alive. Like I can do anything. My head is full of a million ideas and it spins constantly with everything that needs to be done. I...
