About Me

Brandy: I didn't start out the domestic type but i have fit into this life very well. Ive got ups and downs and I'm not perfect but I think I'm good enough. I'm a real life Navy wife and these are my stories..

View my complete profile

Its been a bad year..

A real bad year.
Dealing with:
A scary diagnosis for my oldest son.
The premature birth of my fourth son.
The guilt of not being there all the time for all of my sons.
Having four sons in six years.
Post-partum Depression (PPD)
Pre-menstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD)
My Asperger's.
My active duty husband's time away.
My active duty husband's alcoholism.
The effects of all these things on my marriage..

I spent so much time being sad and isolating myself that I lost touch with who I am. I became angry. I became bitter. I couldn't even accept people reaching out to me. I just wanted to scream NO! YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT IM GOING THROUGH, YOU DO NOT KNOW HOW I FEEL!
I was just making things worse for myself..

So after too many sleepless nights and too many days just sitting on the kitchen floor feeling sorry for myself. I realized that my problems were exactly that, my problems..
I am the only person who can fix me and Ive got to do it one day at a time..
So here goes. A new blog for a new start!
