In Gods Timing

Do you ever wish you had a Do Over? Or an easy button?
 There have been moments I’ve wished I’d done things differently or not at all,  but given the chance would I actually go back and change things? Probably not! All the heartaches, broken bones, mistakes, fights with friends, tears cried, and stands I’ve taken all got me right where I am today and I wouldn’t change that for anything.  Don’t get me wrong, bad times are just that, Bad, but didn’t they have a huge part in getting where you are right this moment?  I’m not talking “ When life hands you lemons make lemonade”


by all means when times are hard: get mad, cry, scream, hit something, ultimately you are a better person for it.  “What doesn’t kill you makes you Stronger” (yes I know I use cheesy cliches a lot….get used to it ;)  
I  could sit here all day and give you examples of bad things in my life, lord knows we would be here a few days...but instead I want to tell you that I think life is what you make it. I saw something the other day that made me laugh, partly because it’s how I want to be :) 



Sometimes you have a feeling, only you truly know what is right for you and sometimes you just have to worry about you and not what others think you need or tell you to do.  You have got to do what makes you happy, everyone else looks out for themselves and you should to.  Sometimes I get so caught up in helping and doing for others that I totally forget to take care of me, but when is it my turn?  Who will look out for me if I won’t look out for myself?


I am single, have been on and off since I was in a serious relationship that ended 4 years ago. I can’t quite seem to find someone that is right for me, but I know that he is out there. I helped raise his three children and I was so in love with all of them.  When we broke up it honestly broke my heart. Not only was I walking away from him but I was walking away from the three kids I had been such a huge part of their lives for three years, and I honestly wasn’t sure I’d recover from that.  I was told by someone that even if someone is right for you, if the timing isn’t right then it won’t be right. I truly believe there is validity to that.  You have to be in the right place in your life at the same time for something to work out the way it should. I am not perfect nor am I the most religious person, but I believe in God and I believe that he has a plan for all of us, mine just hasn’t been revealed yet.  I’ve also been told if the door doesn’t open, then it wasn’t your door!
“You don’t understand what I’m doing now, but someday you will.”  ~John 13:7
“When the time is right, I, the Lord will make it happen.” ~Isaiah 60:22
I have always been a pretty independent person, but in these past 4 years I have gotten quite used to doing my own thing (when and what I want to). I always joke with my dad that the ONLY thing I need a man for is to help me with car stuff. When it comes to taking care of car maintenance I am clueless.  In all honesty I would LOVE to meet the right guy and settle down with him and raise a family, but I will not rush it.  I know that when the time is right it will happen.
 I have tried online dating and OH MY WORD, I think one of my blog posts should be about what NOT to do to pick up girls on Dating Sites, I have met some very very very interesting people to say the least.  I’m telling you I could write a whole book on the guys I’ve met from the dating sites.  The one I dated for the longest that I had met on a dating site literally made me so stressed out that I got a stomach ulcer and couldn’t keep down food for a good 2-3 months.  I would so much rather be alone than to be with someone that makes me that miserable.  Young girls take it from me, no man is worth all that stress. You can do bad by yourself you don’t need someone else bringing you down.  I WILL find a guy that will treat me the way I deserve to be treated and I will make him very happy. Until then it will be me and my two sweet baby hedgehogs, call me the Crazy Hedgehog Lady if you must ;)

Until next time
XOXO, Brittany

Dear Santa,

           I am afraid that I have become someone that we have all been annoyed by at some point in our lives. But you know what??? I'm honestly not even sorry...…as they say (lol) SORRY NOT SORRY! I may have become the dreaded girl that talks about her boyfriend ALLLLL the time (usually without even noticing that I am doing it) and let me tell you why I offer exactly 0 apologies for it!? I am 38 years old, and I have never been in anything but TOXIC relationships. I don't know maybe, once you are in a few bad relationships, you start to think that toxicity is normal, but I'm here to tell you that it's not. It may be what is common in 2023, but it is not how it actually should be. I could tell you some stories that would make your skin crawl!   I had a boyfriend tell me that I was so big that I weighed down my side of the bed. One that refused to take me to Immediate Care when I broke out in hives all over my body and was having trouble breathing because, "That was

My jumbled thoughts on "paper"

       I have been telling myself for a while now that I would sit down to write a new entry in my blog. I have intentions of doing it more, but sometimes my thoughts seem so jumbled and it's hard to know where to start. I will be lying in bed about to drift off and I think of something profound that I want to write, but by the time I wake up, I can't remember what it was.       I find myself 37 years old, not knowing where I am headed in my life. Don't get me wrong, I AM EXTREMELY BLESSED and if you know me, then you know that most days I spend my time LIVING MY BEST LIFE. I have my family, my friends, I own a house and car, have 3 college degrees, and some pretty dang adorable "fur babies", seriously have you seen them?            I certainly thought by this point in my life, I would be married and have a baby or two.  There is nothing that I have ever wanted more than I have wanted to be a mommy.  If I am 100% honest every day that passes that I am not a mom,

A Piece of My Heart is Gone Forever

     The last blog post I wrote, was on October 19, 2019, and it was about the same thing I am writing about now. Only I thought I was hurting then, now I am truly heartbroken. It was a letter to "addiction" but really it was to Jack, whom I loved dearly, but simply (for my mental health) could not be around anymore. Now I find myself thinking of TONS of things that I want to tell him, and simply cannot ever again. This is just a short version of the story!    None of what I have to say is out of any disrespect to him, the truth is that I did love him! I did everything that I knew how to show him how much I loved him and to help "save" him. I hated the person he turned into when he was taking pills (and eventually God knows what else). He and I had a somewhat tumultuous relationship, dating twice over three years. Deep down he was an amazing person, and that’s why I held on for so long, I knew the real Jack was in there somewhere! When Jack and I were together, I p
