Hey there!!  
I see that you found my page about me...
well not really sure how exciting this will be but all I can do 
is try and come up with something that might entertain you here.

I am a mom of 3 wonderful kids, Kevin, Andrew, & Angel....
I am 33, at least for a couple more months...
and I am engaged to a wonderful man, Joseph. 

Why did I decide to make a web site??  
Well it's kind of a long store but I think by telling it I might be able 
to bring some light to someone else.  I suffer from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.
I ended up with this disorder because of the bad relationship I had previous to
the one I am in now.  He was a very mentally draining "Monster".  He ended up
freaking out on the children and myself and threatened to kill us all.  It was 5 hours
of hell let me tell you that we went through.  Because of what happened I ended
up on disability for a year...hiding in my own skin in  hopes that I wouldn't have
to experience what I had already gone through over and over again in my head.

To help you understand my PTSD...
I have more information about it on
my causes pages....
You can read some of
my poetry that I wrote while going through 
some of my darkest times with the disorder.

Well as I went through therapy and dealt with what had happened....I began
to learn how to use a computer.  One of the things that I am so grateful for is
that my parents gave me this computer and that my mom began teaching me
how to use the programs called Paint Shop Pro 7 and Front Page.  While I tried
to escape the horrible things in my head I worked on graphics and learned as 
much as I could about creating a web site.  Thus the reason for my site. 
And if you have been here before...you have seen my site change several times...
as I learned something else I wasn't happy with the way the site looked and 
had to change it.  So to all  of you that have been here before....
how do you like the latest look??

One of the other things that I did with my computer was learned how to go 
into a chat room and  have made so many friends that way.  I have one 
that has become the love of my life...Yes, My Joseph I meet in a chat room. 
 He is wonderful and has been there with me every step of the way.  
Joseph has helped me learn that life is worth living again and that you truly 
can be happy. He has given me something that I never though I would ever 
have and that is a very best friend in the person that I am going 
to be spending the rest of my life with.
  One of the things no one really thought 
could happen is finding love over the internet well....it can happen hehe.

As I said earlier...I spent allot of time chatting...well I also ended up with 
more than just my fiancé, Joseph, as a best friend.  I also meet the most 
amazing lady, Belinda, also known as Starrburst.  She is one amazing lady 
and has the biggest heart I have seen in a long time.  She spent allot of time 
talking to me even when I made no since at all.  So, I wanted to take
the time to thank her here for everything she has and still does for me. 
You deserve the best in everything you do my On-Line Mom!!

If my site and my store doesn't do but one thing I hope it encourages someone
that may have been through domestic violence to know that you can make it
through it...that life does go on and that you can be happy again. 

I will add to and change this page again in the future...You know I have to
tell you all how the wedding went and stuff like that...hehe....
So stay tuned and take a look here now and then and
see if I have changed something.....

I send to you Hugs and well Wishes...
Glennda
