More Reflections

*My body is shutting down.

*I'm happy that my professional blog on the Common Core is doing so well. Every Child. Every Day. The Common Core.

*My ex is an evil man. I wish I never met him. I was stupid to have married him.

*Most of  my stress comes from my lack of restful sleep at night.

*I wish I lived in Alaska right this minute.

*I am currently obsessed with the idea of relocating to Alaska.

*My daughter makes me smile.

*Mi sobrinito es un jefecito.

*Right now I have a huge bruise under my left eye and bruises all over my right arm. Rough night last night.

*Craigslist is a goldmine. Especially the personals. It's replaced World Star Hip Hop as my guilty pleasure. «No more CL after the recent murder in Pennsylvania. Scary!»

*I'm over Facebook. I will use it for Bliss by Monica posts from now on.

*Never let anyone blackmail you. Ever.

*I am not emotionally ready for the holidays yet.

*90% of my work clothes are from the INC brand at Macy's.

*Supporting a child at a private college in a big city is extremely expensive.

*I have tried my best to be the best Mom I can. I hope mi hija knows how much I love her.

*When I die, I want to be remembered as someone who was kind, intelligent, funny, a wonderful Mom, and a good Catholic.

*My dog Coda is part of the family. She's my hairy little companion. I'm taking her to Alaska and she will wear her coat and sweaters happily.

That is all,
Monica

Coward!

You can run, but you can't hide...

Thank you for finally admitting what I have always known.

Never love a man who has no respect for you, his family, or himself.

Enlightened,

Monica

My New Home?

Barrow, Alaksa... 2014. We'll see.

Enchanted,

Monica

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.

Never going back again,

RAWR!!!!

This video gives me chills. I love the school spirit at Lakewood High School in Colorado. Congratulations for winning the GMA/Katy Perry contest and showing everyone how to "Roar".

¿Estoy Mal?

 

Protect your heart. You only get one.

Always,
Monica

Su Novia

Bella y perfecta, su novia...

Now you see why he loves her.

Monica

*Update-- She broke up with him. Turns out he was stalking her and being an idiot. Good for you bella.

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
