An open letter to myself in 10 years

  Dear Megan,
  I'm writing you to reflect on our life.  Together.  I mean we are the same person, but I'm sure 30 year old me differs from the 20 year old me that is writing this at this very moment.  It's crazy huh? How time flies.... how life changes in just the blink of an eye.

  I want to start this out by saying, whoever you are now... I AM PROUD OF YOU!  I'm sure the past 10 years have been full of ups and downs, but you made it through! We made it through.  I'm sure whatever you have made of your self, of your life... is wonderful.   But either way, I want to let you know my hopes and dreams for you at 30 years old.  Here it goes:

    I hope you are living life to the fullest, and living in the moment making memories with those you love the most.  I hope you are still happily married, and keeping things spicey and fun.  I hope you finally got to become a mom.  I know thats one of our  biggest dreams,  and I'm praying god blessed us with a healthy happy baby.  Or 4?  I hope you are rocking mother hood!  I hope you are a nurse, helping people like you have always dreamt of doing.  I know you'll make a great nurse someday.   I hope you are debt free,  have a cozy home, and the life you've always dreamed of.  I hope you have followed your dreams of traveling once a year.  I hope you are HAPPY. Happiness is what i hope for you the most.

  I pray you stand strong when times get tough, and never let sadness or bitterness take over your kind and happy heart.  I pray you always forgive,  but don't forget.  I pray you are using your kindness to your advantage and making people smile with your actions and your words.  I pray you always do the right thing, because that's just who you are.  I pray you always stay young at heart, but grow wiser with time,  and never stop learning things about yourself.

 

I don't what the future holds but i know who holds the future.  We've got this 💜

Bitterness with infertility

It can be hard.  Really really hard.  Most days are fine.  You can cope with your childless void, and exist in every day life with a smile and truly be happy for your friends and family with children.  With pregnancy announcements and baby showers.  Most days I'm happy for them.  Excited with them even.    BUT then there are the days I miss my period.  I'll go months being completely regular and then out of no where I miss.  For no reason.  I wait a week after i miss my period to take a pregnancy test, just to be safe to make sure af doesn't show her ugly stupid face.  I imagine myself telling jared we are pregnant, us telling our parents, doing a gender reveal,  having a baby shower,  ultrasounds, heck I even picture myself with a big ole pregnant belly.   But the catch? Test is always negative.  I'm never pregnant,  even when i miss.  Never.  It's just a sick game my body plays with my head that ends with me being dissappinted, upset, and angry every time it happ

A letter to the girl I was 5 years ago

  Sometimes it doesn't feel like it's been 5 years.  15 doesn't seem that far off.   But that's how life is.... time passes us by,  things change, and life goes on.  15 was a crazy year, huh? There Was bad,  and there was good.   I can still remember that year like it was yesterday.  I'm sure I'll never forget it, as that year was a very impactful year for me.  I turned 15 on January 28th 2013.  The beginning of that year was pretty normal for me.  I was a freshman at Eastern High School, Skinny,  Pretty,  Carefree, Lots of friends,  but tender hearted and naive.   I went to parties frequently (that my parents had no idea about) and I was pretty much your typical average teenage  girl.  Until my best friend since middle school betrayed me and all of my secrets.  I was embarrassed, I was alone, and suicidal.   I ended up enrolling in Ecot for homeschooling because I was just so depressed.  I did good with Ecot for a while, but i missed having friends... So I s

Advice to new home health aides

  Home Health Aide/ HHA, Personal Care Aide/ PCA.  That's what i am.  That's what i do.  It's a job that I continue to find my way back to.    Being a home health care provider is not an easy job, but it's a rewarding one.   Don't get me wrong, you'll have easy clients.  The ones that just want to sit and chat,  or watch movies,  or bake, or make crafts, or play cards, etc.   And the memories you make are amazing.  Your client becomes apart of your family,  and you apart of there's.   They make your time at work incredibly enjoyable and you are so so very thankful for your job.  And for them.  These clients are so appreciative of you, and everything you do.  They treat you with respect and love.  And you just enjoy working for them,  and they enjoy your company. You'll also have some difficult clients.   The ones who feel their way is the only way and they will ride a stick up your behind until you do it exactly how they want it done ( no, not literall
