5 Random Things About ME
1)I have 2 birthdays. January 1 is that actual day I was born. While June 14th of 2005 was the day my life was given back. For many many many years my life was dictated by my weight. Slowly my health and mental well being deteriorated. If I had not done something drastic it would only be amatter of time before my life was shortened by some comorbidity due to obesity. June 14th I had Gastric Bypass which has assisted me in losing 98.5 pounds allowing me to take back control of my life.
2)When I graduate in August from the Social Service Worker Intensive Program I will officially have two diplomas which will include the SSW and my DSW which is Developmental Services Worker. I am also only 1 semester short of having my bachelors of Sociology & Anthropology which Ihope to change over to a bachelprs of Social Work finish that in one year then continue on to my Masters. Yep by the time I am done I could have been a doctor TWICE LOL.
3)I got married when I was 22. I also left my husband. I guess depending on which story you here there could be different reasons. I don't exactly know what he tells people and for all I know he tells people he left me. Which if he does he knows that is wrong. I left him because he couldnt provide for me emotionally. He didn't want to grow up. He didn't want to take on the role of husband or father. He felt that so long as he did the odd chore that was all he ever needed to do. His priorities were never me, it was either to his job, his family, the cats, the house, his friends. Speaking of family for some reason his family never excepted me and he also didn't make that any easier, when he would remind me of the fact how his family (parents) asked him on our wedding day if he was sure he wanted to do this. Or when he told me of his families concerns. Instead of being supportive they just never really accepted me for me. I finally realized I deserved more and deserved better so I left him.
4)I am now with an amazing man. THE MAN and his family love me for me regardless of my size or anything else. In fact his mother (THE MOM) went with me on one of my consults and spent the night with me in the hotel. It was fun we got up in the morning early and sat on the edge of the bed like young school girls chatting about THE MAN and his dad and the odd little things they do that irritate us. It was a good bonding time. We also spent alot of time shopping together which was alot fo fun as well. I love his family and I know they love me.
5)I am somewhat tempermental. Ok truthfully I am really tempermental. I guess it depends on how you look at it. I take alot of crap from people before I say something. Infact most people have a line drawn once you cross that line you are told. Well I draw a line and then I erase it and move it back and I continue this untill I am up against the wall. When I have had enough I become the bicth from hell. I never forget and I forgive even less. Best analogy I can give was when I was in highschool I had this really good friend and she always took advantage of me. I had a car she didn't she would ask for rides, I would offer to pick her up when we were going somewhere. We would make plans and it was always my car my gas and never did she offer money for gas nor did I ever ask. Often we would go out for lunch and then we would get our bills and she would conveniently not have enough so I would pay the difference for her. We also booked a trip to Nashville for fan fare festival. We did this almost a year before we were to go. The entire time I kept asking her if she was putting her payments on it. She would say yes. I came to find out 3 months before we were to go that she hadn't put any money..Not one cent down on the trip. The part that upset me was that she always found money to go to the casino or to the bingo hall or would go out for drinks or dinner. It shoudl be mentioned that the trip was booked with three of us going and of course it is cheaper when you have three people going as opposed to 2 or 1. SO I got screwed. I lost my deposit on the trip because I couldnt afford the difference. This was the last straw and I never spoke to her again nor do I miss talking to her. This just goes to show that I take alot before I cut a friend off but rest assured I will cut a friend off if I feel I need to and when I have been betrayed bad enough. Anyways I just wanted to say I amfun and friendly and will do anythign to help someone but don't stab me in the back because there is no turning back and I will NOT forgive.
6)Oh and one more thing my biggest pet peeve. I have a few. 1) People who LIE dont ever lie to me no matter how small I won't forgive liars. 2) People who are late. I hate being late, Ihate when people are late. I hate when I sit in class and other people disrupt the class by arriving 30 minutes late and then I get distracted by them walking in, by them sitting down finding a seat, and by them rummaging through their desk. If you can't have enough courtesy to arrive on time then atleast respect the people who were on time and wait till there is a time like break time when you can enter without disrupting the class.
As for tagging someone I won't be so cruel. :)
