WELL, FINALLY, I AM BACK TO UPDATE, IT'S BEEN 7 MONTHS, AND FULL OF SO MANY HUGE EVENTS, BIGGEST AND BEST, IS THAT IN AUGUST 2012, I WAS ABLE TO GET OUR VERY OWN PLACE FOR JUST THE GIRLS AND I, IT'S IN AN AMAZING CHILD FILLED NEIGHBORHOOD I HAVE NEVER LIVED IN SUCH AN AWESOME SAFE PLACE , WE HAVE 3 BEDROOMS 2 BATHS EVEN A GARAGE WHICH I HAVE NEVER HAD IN MY LIFE, AND IT'S ALL OURS, BEDROOM #3 IS "GRANDMA TERESA'S ROOM", AND PART TIME MASSAGE ROOM, I HAVE JUST RECENTLY   STARTED DOING MASSAGE 1 HANDED, AND IT FELT SO WONDERFUL TO DO WHAT I LOVE TO DO
                          4 YEARS!, IT WAS MY 4 YEAR ANNIVERSARY IN AUGUST MY LIFE IS NO WHERE WHAT I EXPECTED IT TO BE AT 31 BUT 4 YEARS AFTER MY BRAIN EXPLOSION, IT'S FULL OF AMAZING THINGS, UNEXPECTED THINGS BUT I AM VERY HAPPY, NOT AS HAPPY AS I WILL BE WHEN MY ARM WORKS, BUT PRETTY DARN HAPPY
                             4 YEARS 4 BIGGEST CHANGES
                              #1 I AM LIVING 100% INDEPENDENTLY, WITH MY 2 ANGEL DAUGHTERS
                              #2, I HAVE MY OWN CAR, AND CAN GO JUST ABOUT ANYWHERE
                              #3 I AM A HAPPY SINGLE MOM, RAISING 2 AMAZING LITTLE LADIES
                               #4 BOTH MY BABIES ARE IN SCHOOL, LILLI FULL-TIME 1ST GRADE, ELLA HALF DAY KINDERGARTEN, THEY ARE BOTH LEARNING TO READ WHICH IS SO DARN NEAT, EXCEPT THAT I CAN'T SPELL SECRET THINGS ANY MORE
                                       # EXTRA, I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO STOP USING MY CANE, WHICH MAKES ME FEEL A BIT YOUNGER, NOTHING SHOUTS OLD WOMAN LIKE USING A CANE, THE FIRST TIME LILLI NOTICE I WASN'T USING IT, SHE FREAKED OUT PANICKED, POOR GIRL THOUGHT STARTED CRYING THOUGHT I WOULD FALL, I HAVE TO CONVINCE HER ALL THE TIME THAT IT'S MY JOB TO LOOK AFTER HER NOT HER WORRYING ABOUT HER MAMA, AFTER MANY SUCCESSFUL TRIPS OUT, NEITHER GIRL WORRIES ABOUT ME, I CONTINUE TO GET STRONGER EVERY DAY,
                                           MY TO DO LIST IS STILL PRETTY BIG, BUT I AM VERY AMAZED AT MY LIFE NOW, AFTER SUCH A HORRIFIC LIFE CHALLENGE, BUT I AM TOUGHER THAN EVER
                                             I CAN'T PUT INTO WORDS, HOW FANTASTIC IT FEELS TO BE SO INDEPENDENT ONCE AGAIN IN MY LIFE, MY WORLD IS DEVOTED TO MY GIRLS, AND I LOVE EVERY DAY, NATURALLY I GET EXHAUSTED, AND BURNT-OUT LIKE SO MANY OTHER FULL-TIME MOMS, MY MOM TERESA GETS TO VISIT ONCE A MONTH, AND I TAKE FULL ADVANTAGE OF HER USEFULNESS, AND CONSIDER IT MY 2 DAY VACATION WHENS SHE'S HERE, SHE HAS HAD SO MUCH FUN DECORATING AND PLAYING DOMESTIC HOUSE WITH MY HOME WHICH HAS BEEN VERY BENEFICIAL TO ME, I KEEP A HELP-ME-TO-DO-LIST FOR WHEN SHE IS COMING, SEEMS WE NEVER HAVE ENOUGH TIME FOR ALL THAT WE WANT TO DO
                                                                     MY LIFE SEEMS VERY BUSY AT TIMES, YET QUITE DULL AS WELL, BUT ALL IN ALL, MY GIRLS AND I ARE EXTREMELY HAPPY
                                                                                                                    GOD BLESS
                                                                                                                                    TRULY TAMI

OH THE EXCITEMENT! I BOUGHT A CAR

FINALLY, NEARLY 4 YEARS AGO, MY WHOLE WORLD CHANGED, ITS BEEN INSANELY DIFFICULT, BUT I'M DOING 97% BETTER NOW, I HAVE BEEN WAITING TO ANNOUNCE 2 OF MY BIGGEST ACHIEVEMENTS SINCE AUGUST 2008, 1 I AM STILL WAITING ON AND THAT'S MY LEFT ARM, BUT 2 IS TO BE DRIVING, AND THOUGH MY ARM WOULD BE A MILLION TIMES BETTER, I HAVE ACCOMPLISHED THE LATER GOAL, DRIVING
THIS WEEKEND, I BOUGHT MYSELF A CAR USED BUT NEW TO ME A 2000 FORD TAURUS, IT'S JUST PERFECT FOR THE GIRLS AND I,AND SINCE THEY WERE JUST BABIES WHEN MY BRAIN BUSTED, THE IDEA OF MOMMY DRIVING IS MIND-BLOWING TO THEM, HA HA GET IT MIND-BLOWING
THIS GOAL AS BEEN IN THE MAKING FOR SO LONG, THAT IT DOESN'T SEEM REAL TO ME YET THE GIRLS FIRST REQUESTS, TO GO OUT TO BREAKFAST AND THEN THE MALL
I AM BEYOND EXCITED FOR THE FREEDOM AND INDEPENDENCE THAT WILL COME FROM HAVING A CAR AGAIN, AND AFTER BEING WITH OUT FOR SO LONG I'M EVEN LOOKING FORWARD TO BUYING GAS EVEN IF ITS NEARLY 4$ A GALLON, MY MOTHER TERESA KEEPS MENTIONING THIS TO ME ABOUT HOW AWFUL IT IS, BUT AFTER OVER 3 YEARS OF ASKING FOR RIDES, I COULD'NT CARE LESS ABOUT GAS PRICES ITS SEEMS SUCH A VALUABLE THING TO ME, AFTER BEING FORCE TO HAVE NO FREEDOM.

2012 BIG CHANGES

on January 5th, due to some unpleasant situations, the girls and i had to move in with Alberts aunt Monica casados, and she happily welcomed us, its been such an enormous blessing, it took awhile but the girls and i have adjusted very well, they are happy and surrounded my TONS OF LOVE, i have been doing VERY WELL, healthy happy and strong, with out to much detail, we were living in a very unhealthy negative environment, david and monica don't have any grand kids yet, and it definitely shows that they just love having my girls as rental grand kids
BIGGEST NEWS OF ALL--, i will be buying a car very soon, i have taken and passed driving classes and did surprisingly well, i am very proud, to accomplish, one of my huge goals, and feel independent like i was before due to our new life of 2012, i have also become a single mom which naturally adds a new dimension to my recovery, i have to set new goals
- first is to get our own place for the girls and i
- i also plan on getting them in the same school for this fall
- i have no doubt that i can and will be an amazing mom
and accomplish all that is required of myself
