Never Settle!

He is abusive.
He cheats on me.
He smokes weed all day.
He is an alcoholic.
He steals my money.
He stays out all night.
He can't keep a steady job.
He lies to me constantly.

But I got a man...

It's a shame what some women will live with and accept just to say they have a man.

~excerpt from "You Better Preach"

Never going back again,
Monica

Esteem

I have none. I honestly want to disappear. I have no desire to do anything anymore. Nothing gives me joy. I hate myself, my job, and my life.

Being chronically ill is exhausting. I don't have the strength to be happy. To top it all off my ex who just told me a month ago how much he wanted me back and was miserable, now has the perfect girlfriend. She is the exact opposite of me. She's gorgeous, thin, healthy, young, and everything anyone would want in a woman. I think my ex even loves her more than Natalie. All those sweet words about wanting me again were complete bullshit. I should have known, why would anyone want someone as worthless as me?

I'm going away for awhile. I'm turning off my phone and cutting off all social media. I will miss you all.

Take care,
Monica

Bad Things Come to an End

I've been a huge fan of amc's "Breaking Bad" from the first episode. I could identify with high school Chemistry teacher Walter White's diagnosis.

I enjoyed the drama, comedic moments, brutality, and most of all the Science involved throughout the entire series. If you haven't watched "Breaking Bad" you've been missing out on a fabulous show.

The series came to an end on September 29, 2013 with record breaking 10.3 million viewers! I highly recommend you check this show out.



Entertained,
Monica

Strong

Sometimes I consider myself weak because I'm sick 80% of my life. Recently I spent a few days in the hospital. I have pneumonia. Again. During my stay I had a CT chest scan with contrast dye (no more dye with be given to me ever). I had such a bad reaction I am now allergic to it.

I also had to have blood gases taken. Blood gases is a procedure used to determine how much oxygen is in your body. A needle has to be jammed in your wrist at your pulse point. Still with me?? You have to remain completely still or the procedure has to be redone. So much pain :(. My blood oxygen level was 64%. Normal is 100%. I was definitely sick.

I've been through a lot in the last two weeks. Chemo treatment, paramedics twice, and too much money spent on copays. Many couldn't deal with half of the things I do and survive. I guess I am strong. Much stronger than I give myself credit.

Flexing,
Monica

Miserable

Perfect word to describe me. I'm taking meds that are supposed to help my RA but the side effects are horrific. This school year is off to an awful start. My schedule is a nightmare. I teach five classes in a row with no break. I thought I had it bad last year. Oh no, five hours without any access to a restroom is torture. I don't even drink water because I am scared of having to go to the bathroom. By the time 3:05 pm comes around I have severe stomach pains and my throat is dry. I know I am dehydrated.

Our teacher's union is useless and weak so I'm just going to have to suck it up and deal with this for the next 184 days. I never smile anymore. I don't speak to anyone at work unless I have to when I have hall duty in the morning. I've sent away for my disability retirement packet on Monday. I feel awful leaving my students, but for once I have to do what is right for me.

My plan is to relocate to Alaska. I want a nice small house that is big enough for my dog Coda and me. I also want a guest cabin if anyone wants to come out to visit. I have to have indoor plumbing, a fridge, running water, a fenced in backyard area, and city utilities. I'd love to live in Trapper Creek. Next fall I want to take a trip to Alaska to see how things really are up there. If I see it's not possible to relocate there, I'll move to someplace else cold and snowy.

I'm totally okay being alone. I don't have to disappoint anyone and no one can hurt me.

Counting the days until I am free,
Monica
