I think I mentioned I lost my job in August after getting into an accident with a semi. I am being sued for $25,000.00 because the man said he was hurt. He did not get hurt, I have pictures to prove that the man was okay. I tried to contact my past employer and they just won't respond to me, I am just trying to save them some money. I haven't been working since then, well I have been doing some transcribing on the internet, but not making to much because I am not a very fast typist.
So I thought I would try to keep track a bit on how my son has been treating me lately. Ha, ha I guess not lately, but all his life.
I remember when he was just a newborn and I had to stay in the hospital with him for a week, because he had Re-flux, which is... His liquids were backing up in his esophagus and going back into his lungs trying to suffocate him. They had me thicken his formula with cereal and that seemed to have worked just great.
None the less, he had to be attached to a breathing monitor for 3 months of his little life.
I kept him in bed with my husband and myself until he was like 5 or so, I felt the need to watch him constantly to make sure he was breathing okay while he slept. I learned to sleep with one eye open at all times.
We used to play all the time. I'd take him for walks in his stroller across town miles, and miles and when we got back we always played in the grass until he turned green. When he was 4 he was diagnosed with ADD/ADHD/ODD and yes at that early an age he was put on medication to help him so he didn't hurt himself. He always was a very special miracle to me. We would put on our roller-skates and go over to one of the factory's in our neighborhood and skate in their parking lot for hours, rolling back and forth this ball that was bigger then him.
Needless to say, I was always over protective of my son... Always!!! Now when I entered into my second marriage my son started to drift away from me a bit, which was fine. But we had decided to make a move to New York so that my son could go to school with his cousins. After I had to go to work to support us, I had to be gone for 2 full time jobs daily. My son started to slack off on his homework, which my husband didn't enforce before playing outside.
His grades were slipping a bit and we moved back to Michigan. When we moved back, I let him stay home from school and said that we would home school him. Every-time we gave a suggestion on what he can do for schoolwork he would just blow it off and do his own thing. He did quit school and took his GED at 17 then proceeded to go into the Army.
He hurt himself in the Army so he was able to come back home. In the mean time we were losing our home as for my husband decided to leave us (Again- this was a habit of his) so we were really in a lot of serious problems. My vehicle got taken away so I couldn't find work to keep a roof over our head. I got arrested and that pretty much made my medical training useless. So I have a lot of pretty bad issues that I can't even begin to list here.
I really loved my driving job, I didn't mind driving for them for 3 years 14 hours a day or longer sometimes, but when I lost my job, my son had to pick up and pay all our bills because I am not working. Now if I was to take my car away from him I would be able to get a job no problem. But... He would lose his.
Now he resents me even more now then he has ever resented me in the past.
What hurts the most is all the names he calls me, I try to speak to him about something or just anything and he tells me to shut up that he can't stand listening to me. Now if he needs to say something to me I listen to him without saying hurtful things. I know he hates me, and maybe he will hate me forever, but I feel like I have no reason to be here in this life when I have nothing left to do.
I would never do anything stupid to jeopardize my chance of going to Heaven, but I hold a lot of hurt inside and I just can't figure out what to do with it all. So I thought at least if I write about some of the things, that they won't seem so big to me. I'm sorry to vent and ramble on, but believe it or not, this helped me feel a tiny bit better. Love all you fellow Bloggers and May the Great Lord Bless You and Your's.

Sunday, January 24, 2016
Well here we are in 2016 already, my how time flies. I am no longer working and besides my broken back... I have been falling a lot lately. Just today I stood up from the couch, with a cup of coffee in my hand, and my left foot had no feeling in it, so down I went. This time my son had to come help me walk to the kitchen. The coffee that was in the cup covered the entire living room.
I haven't been anywhere lately so I don't have much to write about. I did go up north in December because my best friends sister passed away. I was very happy to see her, just wish it was on a better occasion.
the funeral was beautiful there were hundreds of people there; it was really cool to see that 90% of the people there belonged to my best friends mother. I've seen big families but her's is gigantic and they have always welcomed me.
So this year I hope to write more often, I keep forgetting that I have this site. I did go out and get more fashions for under $5 a couple months ago. I think the most that an entire outfit costs was $2.66. I will have to post some pictures later of the things I got.
I wish I had a full size manikin then I could make the clothes look so much better then what they currently look like on the stuff I used to pose them on. That would be super because then I could also sew my own clothes that way. I'm not a great sewer but I do have a ton of fabric and two sewing machines, and could surely come up with a lot of something.
Well stay cool, or I guess stay warm and have a very Blessed Day.
Remember God loves you.

Raw Truth about adults driving with cell phones
I know I wrote about adults texting while driving but now I am going to write about: Adults driving while talking on their cell phones.
About 3 days ago I was heading over to Warren to drop off a couple of very heavy skids and just when I was at the part of the highway where there are 5 lanes and very packed with traffic....A man was driving to the right of me and he was weaving in and out of his lane hitting the rumble strips....and YES he was talking on a cell phone. Then the next thing I knew I saw a tire heading towards my windshield, I could not avoid it by changing lanes as for there was another car on the left of me.....so trying to think fast without panicking and getting into a very bad wreck (at 70 mph) I had to hit my brakes so that the tire was then heading under my front wheels instead of coming towards my window and possibly shattering it into a million pieces and maybe cutting me very badly. I ran the tire over, it lifted my whole vehicle up into the air as if I had hit a large animal such as a deer or something. After I hit the tire I don't know what path it took after that, I am hoping it didn't hurt some other driver. The man that started the whole problem never missed a beat with his phone....he didn't hang it up, he didn't look around to see what he hit, and he didn't give a darn if anyone had gotten hurt from the whole scenario.
Please if you plan on talking on the phone while you are driving can you please keep an eye on the road and on the sides of the road....how do you not know you are on the side of the road past the rumble strips hitting a tire and sending it sailing into the air to do some horrible damage.
Again I can say that I am very proud that the children that I see driving while I am traveling everywhere for work are very cautious and keep an eye out for their fellow drivers. Bless them for helping keep other drivers safe by staying off their phones.
We never had cell phones before, we kept our calls to when we returned home or needed a pay phone and we had a lot safer places to drive. Why must the adults set the stage by disobeying the laws, don't they realize that driving with a cell phone can really cause a lot of harm to people maybe even DEATH!!!
I hope their children don't follow in their footsteps.
God bless you all and have a very safe weekend.

The Raw Truth About Deer.........
I feel so sorry for all the deer here in Michigan; if they are not killed by people with guns they are killed by people with cars.
I think that I may have mentioned in one of my previous blogs that I drive for a delivery company.....so....needless to say I see a lot of things happening on the road everyday. And, the most that I see is dead deer. There is whole deer and then there is the poor deer that is completely ground into hamburger.
I see dented cars that are at the side of the road after hitting a deer and then I see no cars anywhere in sight but the deer is very evident that it died a horrific death.
I understand that we do have an over population of deer and our state joked about making the deer our state animal instead of our state bird the Robin.
This past Friday on the 16th of November....which is one day after hunting season opened up, I was driving East on I-96 and then West on I-96 coming back to the company....which is over 300 miles round trip, and I came across a few police cars that were stopped with a few different cars and each one of them cars had been involved in a deer crash. A couple of the cars were quite damaged and with them damaged cars were deer insides and outsides so strewn across the highway that they were barely recognized.
Secondly....I was fueling up and started talking to a tow truck driver and he told me he was just returning from a fatal accident that happened on a highway that travels south through Michigan. He said and I quote...."I just came from a fatal accident where a woman had a deer run out in front of her car and she slammed on her brakes to avoid hitting the deer....the deer was a 5-point Buck. She managed to not hit the deer and saved his life just long enough to loose it on the other side of the highway....and in doing so, someone hit the back end of her car going 70+ MPH and killed her on the spot." Then the tow truck driver told me he had asked the police man if he could keep the antlers from the deer and the police man told him he could not have them as for he promised to give them to the other tow truck driver, who picked up the car from the other side of the highway, the one that actually hit the deer and took its life.
Now in saying all this....I am the type that would do her best not to hit a deer or any other animal that I see on the highway....but sometimes you just don't have a chance to get out of the way.
Later in the night I was driving home from work....which is about a 40 minute drive and the fog was so heavy that I had to drive 35-40mph on the highway just to get home safely.....but.....the whole time I was driving all I could picture was a deer is going to jump out in front of me and then I am going to get very hurt in the small car I'm driving, because how do you see anything especially the deer in the thick fog.
I know we have to do something about the deer population because they are claiming lots of lives, but when my town tried to shoot off some deer and donate the meat to local food pantries, they just kept multiplying. There are also small wire fences that go the entire length of all the major highways but they are to short to keep the deer from jumping over them.
Don't get me wrong I love all GOD'S animals and it saddens me so much to see these deer strewn over 50 feet and nothing left of them, every piece of deer is pounded into the pavement of the highways over and over and what is scary enough is the splatter of blood almost the entire stretch of every highway.
Please be very careful while driving and try not to let someone tailgate you because if you do find yourself braking for any animal it might be the last time you live to do that. ( Tailgating with be another story for later)
If you are a believer of Christ please pray for everyone on the highway and for the animals to stay off the highway......so all can live.
I wish they would clean up the carcases that way I wouldn't have such high anxiety driving over all of their strewn out innards.
Please don't swerve or slam on your brakes if you have an animal in your path.....only if you have no traffic around you, can you attempt such a thing and in a slow safe manner. I know what you may be thinking....I'm afraid to hit this animal it might kill me by going through my windshield or it's going to destroy my vehicle or both; those are my exact thoughts as well.....and knock on wood I haven't hit an animal yet.

The Raw Truth About Texting While Driving...
Texting while driving has been a problem for a few years now. I was on my way to Ohio and found myself stuck in a traffic jam....and I passed quite a few cars where the drivers were texting. Now much to my surprise every one that I saw was older. I want to say that the age bracket that was texting was from 30 to 50.
Now every day that I'm driving I see mostly women texting.....driving over 70mph and weaving in and out of lanes and sometimes almost side swiping other drivers; which are blind to the fact that they are so close to having an accident.
We put a lot of the blame on younger children and teens for texting expecially while driving....now don't get me wrong there are kids texting while driving, but every young person I see driving I don't see them texting.
Maybe we should have all drivers that carry a cell phone watch a short video on what happens when you text and drive....even though I personally don't text and drive I do have to briefly look at a map and the 2 or 3 seconds that I take my eyes off the road, I find myself getting close to the lines in my lane. when this happened a couple times I decided to add a turn by turn app on my cell phone that way my eyes never leave the road....and I'm a driver by proffession so I feel I did my part to keep the other drivers driving by me safe.
Please if you text and drive at least get a phone that lets you record your texting instead of typing your texts.....or please call...or if it can wait then please let it wait. All our lives depend on it.
Thank you and God Bless you all.
P.S. Stay tuned for the raw truth on Fashion. We are going to buy a complete outfit.....head to toe for just $5.00. the outfit and the prices will be posted next Sunday on the 11th. Hope you enjoy what we pick out....any questions feel free to comment on here.
Bye, Bye and Good Night!!!!
Hugs................Karla
