I decided it was time to start writing a blog instead of reading so many. Journal writing is therapy and this mama needs some therapy!

I will tell you right now... if grammar and punctuation drive you nuts... run now! In high school and college I was a stickler on it. Now not so much. I admit when I write I leave out ' and , -sorry. I will be honest & just be myself when I write.

Im a mama to 2 beautiful kids. Maddox who will be 4 in November and Jolie who will be 8 in December. Maddox will be called Maddi or Madd. Jolie will be called Jojo. Im a cosmetologist. One day I will be a makeup artist. There just isnt much of a career for it in the area I live. I work at a Holiday Hair. I love my coworkers on most days. At the moment, the kids and I are living with my parents. Until I can afford to get our own place. I just got engaged to my son's father, Brent. Which is a conflict with my family. He is currently incarcerated in a WV prison. But dont let that build a negative opinion of us. Everyone makes mistakes. I sure have! Im always the first one to admit it! Im a recovering drug addict with 3 years in a clean life. Im a very spiritual person. Buddhism & Christianity are a huge influence on my life. Im a book worm and words are my oxygen. Music and art are important to me.

I will try to update this as much as I can. But I am known to disappear into my own solitude for days.
