I Believe that we can make friendships everywhere we are, if only we are open to it. Good people are just so hard to find nowadays. And I wish it wouldn’t be. How hard is it to be nice to others? We are all one race: The human race.
So here is a bit about me without being too detailed. I’ve lived in Arizona my entire life and hsve barely been out of the state.🌵 I would love to travel someday, alas, I don’t think I ever well. Are so many places in the USA and other countries that I would love to see.
I am a SAHM of two. E ( boy) is 6 and D(my girl) is almost 3. I worked in childcare for 10 years and quit when my son was born. Right now he and I are doing the remote learning for school, being that I feel it’s too dangerous to send him to school because of the #COVID-19 😷
I’m also physically disabled with what is called Cerebral Palsy. The gist of it is that i suffered a stroke during my birth, which caused the brain damage. Half of my body is affected. I do everything one handed because I cannot even lift my right wrist up to hold something, let alone wiggle my fingers. I also have a crooked foot(right), so I have to wear a leg brace to(somewhat) help me walk. I am also on anti-seizure meds. I also drive an adapted car-- which I am VERY PROUD of driving, because it took me forever to LEARN how to drive and CONVINCE people that I could do so.
I’m married and have 2 kids. I carried them to full term and was able to take my meds while pregnant. The only trouble I had was feeling like a semi, having swollen feet, and the high blood pressure during the end of my pregnancies. Husband and I’ve been together for 15 years, but married for 6 years.
I’ve been on and off LJ for years. I used to write fanfic, but that ship sailed a long time ago. I do write poetry and short stories occasionally though. On my journal, I usually write my day to day things. I’ll post memes, and ask random questions, too.
I HATE racism and bullies. [ We VOTED! ✔️] Love is love and you have every right to be who you are on the inside.
The only good thing about Arizona 🌵 are the sunsets, and would love to live elsewhere, but I know we’d never leave because all our family is here.
I am a loner, and it is hard to trust people. Therefore, I read a lot. --like stupidly. Right now I’m reading Book#5 of the Outlander series [The Fiery Cross], and “The Witcher” series. I also read a few in between-ers that go quickly. Sometimes, books are just better company. Before all this hot mess started, I used to go to Starbucks, Panera, or Wildflower Bread Company and sit and read alone.
I also write snail mail letters and have actual penpals. I find it SO FUN AND AMAZING, with the personal touch of a letter. I think people are so wrapped up in technology, that they don’t realize the small things. I don’t tell people that I do, because they always look at me weirdly and wonder, WHY I do. “It’s just easier to write an e-mail” they often say to me. I’ll sometimes share pictures of the stationary I made or letters I received.
If you think we’d mesh well together, drop me a line. Let’s see what happens.
