June SWAGO

Swagbucks is holding their Swago promotion starting Tuesday, June 27th at 9am PDT! It's just like bingo, but in this case you're filling out squares as you earn points on their site for doing things you already do online. If you're thinking of trying Swagbucks, this is a great chance to learn all about how the site works and earn bonus points while doing it.   

The best part is that the points you get can be used to get free gift cards to places like Amazon, or PayPal cash!


Fill up your board and then submit your pattern to get even more points - if you can fill in the whole board, you get a 550 SB bonus! That's enough for a $5 gift card in our Rewards Store.

Click here to sign up and get started! If you sign up through my link and earn 300 SB before the first of next month, you'll get a bonus 300 SB!

It's Been TWO years.

It's been two years since I went to Chicago.

Two years since everything in my life was normal.

Two years since I started this rollercoaster that is now my life.

A lot has happened in those two years.

I came back to a new life.

I'm no longer a wife.

I no longer live in Lufkin.

I'm no longer a member of PBL...though I hope that changes this year.

I've gravitated more towards politics.

I've learned who I am again...

For a while, I lost myself...

I forgot who I was.

I put Mike first...all the time.

My family has been torn apart.  

The man that I thought I knew, have known for 30 years

CHANGED.

So, now I'm divorced...again.  I've been absent for a while to try to get my life straight.  

I still have my hard days.

I still think that I'm going to spend the rest of my life alone.

I still face the uncertainty...

EVERY.

SINGLE.

DAY.

I wake up scared, I go to bed scared.

The life that I once had, the security, is gone.

BUT

I've made wonderful friends.

I've learned a lot.

I've found who I am again.

You know, people ask me constantly if I were able to go back and change anything, would I do it.  My answer is, and has always been

NO.

Everything that has happened to me, everything that I've gone through, every tear that I've cried, every heartache, every fear, has contributed to make me who I am...and I wouldn't change that for the world.  Yeah, it's hard...it hurts.  

IT SUCKS! But, I wouldn't change it for the world.

Two Years....it seems like a lifetime ago.
