So it's cold and we've got about 4in of snow and counting. Since I hate the snow, here's some @bloghomework from a while back.
4/18: Something/someone you’re thankful for
There are plenty of things and people I'm thankful for, so I'll talk about a few, in no particular order.
First, my amazing boyfriend, Anthony, and two beautiful daughters! Anthony and me met at a tattoo shop, I was getting a tattoo and he was the piercer/tattoo apprentice at the shop. It was instant love I swear. I eventually brought my oldest daughter to meet him and they also hit it off right away. I couldn't have asked for a greater man to step in and take care of her. We spent a lot of time hanging out and then began dating. We were goofy, fun and always laughing. We couldn't ever find anything to fight about. We then discovered I was pregnant with my second daughter. He was so scared it was adorable! I knew the risks of me getting pregnant, it was a small chance of becoming a mom of two, but we did it! And I know our strength together is what made it work. We spent two years together and things got really stressful. We split up. It was probably one of the lowest points for me. I spiraled down fast. But we stayed in love, and after two years apart we worked out our shit and are now back and stronger than ever.
My girls are what make my world beautiful. They keep me alive and keep me pushing forward. Before I had my oldest daughter I was a drug addict and even had my share of dealing. To some it's whatever but I was on my death bed. I've seen some really fucked up shit. I woke up one day and decided I was done. I knew it was me or the grave. Two months after being sober I got pregnant. Once I had my daughter I left my first love. He wasn't ready to clean up and I wasn't ready to bury a child. It was what was best. Me and him have a love hate relationship. But he'll always be important.
My goofy second daughter is a spitting image of me. She loves scary movies. Loves animals(including my taxidermy ones) and is just so cute. She's my miracle. My pregnancy with her was so scary and unpredictable. Never did I expect that we both would survive it. But here we are!
Back in 2008 I met this super amazing guy while working at good Ol Walmart. He was everything to me, before I even really spent time with him, I fell for him. Eventually we dated, it was a perfect disaster. It only lasted for a short time sadly, after we split we became strangers. We both got in serious relationships, and had kids. Now, we talk all of the time, he's always being a goof ball with me and we attempt to cheer eachother up whenever necessary. He's someone that I can't imagine not having as part of my life. (He's just a friend now.) no photo because I'm not sure if he'd care.
Things I'm thankful for.... Can I be one of those dummies and say Internet?! Really though, it keeps me connected with people and I use it to escape my reality when I need too. If it weren't for Internet I wouldn't have all of you!!!
