And I can do this. 3 years ago with a one year old baby at age 18, I was homeless. I was a highschool drop out. I had no job, and no car. I lived in a motel provided to my by the assistance office. And my babydaddy was of course in jail to complete the jerry springer episode. My mom who was my supporter for the last 18 years kicked me and my daughter out.
I pulled myself up from rock bottom.
Right now, I'm sitting in my living room, on my laptop watching tv, eating popcorn shrimp (lol), it's my only day off work & school. Monday I go to work, I'm a kickass home health aide and all my pts love me, and I have 10 months of nursing school under my belt, and will graduate Feb 2014 as an LPN. There's a car outside belonging to me, and Chloe is in her room full of clothes and toys, playing.
The only thing that never has improved is BD. Sadly, but the moral of this post is you can want to change someone else all you want, but all you can really do is change yourself. I'm hoping my prince charming will come along but for now I'm focusing on school and Chloe (: & the serenity prayer is awesome and gave me strength when I thought I didn't have any. I'm going to get it tatted on my back to cover up BD's name :/
lol okay thanks for reading!
