Sometimes we just need Help

Hey ya'll.  I know its been a while since I posted a blog.  Just like everyone else life gets a little busy and crazy at times mine does too.  I think last time I talked about my husband having his back surgery.  The surgery was good and he has healed for the most part.   He still has back pain but they told him that he would always have back pain.  There is not a way to completely remove all the pain.  

    Last month, September 2021, I was diagnosed with Diabetes Type II.   That was a real shocker.   My A1C was 10.5 which was extremely high.   I have started watching my carb intake and cut out sodas too.  I have also started walking in the mornings 2 to 3 miles.  Since the beginning of September I have gone from 218 pounds to 194 pounds.  I am proud of myself but I still have a long way to go to be where I want to get to.  By the Grace of God I will get there too.  

     So this past week I was blessed by God with a week with my oldest daughter.  My husband was finally able to meet her.   It was such a great week with her.  We did have some rough moments but together she and I persevered through them.  She is such a blessing in my life.  She is the one who made me a mom and she and her sisters are what keeps me keeping on.  My girls and my husband are the reason I wake up everyday.  My daughter and I went to see family and just had a girls shopping day.  My poor baby has a lot of emotional trauma from the things she witnessed from my crazy ex.  If you haven't read about that its in my earlier blogs.   So my daughter is now in a place where she can get some emotional support and help to work through some issues she is facing.  I am so proud of the amazing young woman she is and I just want her to live a happy life with lots of love.  She is at the same place that my step daughter has been for the past year.  It is an awesome faith based program that I believe will help her so much.   I know my step daughter has completely transformed her life for the better and she lives for God now in everything she does.  The decision to put my daughter there too was not an easy one for me or the adoptive parents who actually had to make the decision.  We all miss her already but we know this is the best thing for her.  I pray God molds and shapes her into the woman he wants her to be and that she welcomes him into her heart and gives him full control of her life.   

Anyways that is just a little update about my days since my last post.  I will post another blog sooner.   I am sorry again for the long delay.

The Investigation

Image
 If any of you are on facebook please feel free to follow my page called Surviving Evil and Beyond.         So we talked about the investigators (Holt and Mayer)  looking at me like I was crazy and talking out of my head.  Once the investigators went to the house and saw the blood on the walls, the room they would label as the torture chamber, the baseball with brain matter on it and so much more they realized I was in my right mind.  They knew they had walked into a horrifying situation.   They were so kind and so amazing on my case.  They did not find Josh at our house so they asked where I thought he would be and I said his brothers.  So they staked out his brothers house and caught Josh and got my oldest daughter to safety.  When they went in to arrest Josh he was cocky and arrogant and I'm sure thought he would be out of jail in no time and nothing would come of all this. Once I found out they had arrested him an...

Meeting Josh

 Welcome back.         Have you ever been in a relationship and you knew you needed to get out but felt there was no way?  Have you ever been so manipulated by someone you begin to believe their lies?        So i think yesterday I left off talking about Josh and I moving in together.  Things seemed to be going well.  Josh would come home from work every day and hug me and tell me how much he missed me.  I just thought I was the luckiest woman in the world to have such a great man.  One day my mom called me just to see how I was doing and when I got off the phone Josh grilled me about the call.  He wanted to know exactly what mom said and thought we were talking in code or something.  I just thought he was overreacting so I let it go.  On a day a few weeks later he got mad because i was wearing shorts that he thought were too short.  So he went through my clothes and ripped and cut up any ...

The Torture Chamber

     Things between Josh and I just got worse and worse.  I was cleaning the house one day and I picked up a paper.  I opened it and written on it was a recipe for manufacturing Meth.   I was so mad I ripped it up and flushed it down the toilet.  I knew if Josh ever found out I would get in a world of hurt.  While I was working Josh was using and not sleeping at all for days at a time.  He began getting paranoid.  If he heard anything even if it was a creaking sound from the house he would flip out.   Josh would tell me I had someone outside to come after him and he would kill them and me.  Although the reality was there was no one out there.  He shot holes in the wall when he got like that too.  He flipped out one night and grabbed a knife and threatened to cut me again.  He only ended up cutting my cheek just enough to bleed and scar.  Eventually Josh made me quit my job at the nursing home becau...
